A medical insurance company offers two​ prescription-drug insurance plans. With plan​ 1, James would pay the first ​$150 of his prescription costs and 50​% of all costs after that. With plan​ 2, James would pay the first ​$280 of​ costs, but only ​20% of the rest. For what amount of prescription costs will plan 2 save James​ money? (Assume that his prescription costs exceed ​$280​.) mostly need help on how to do the problem

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

when expenses are greater than $433.33

Step-by-step explanation:

set up equations for each plan

let 'x' = prescription costs

Plan 1:  y = 150 + .5x

Plan 2:  y = 280 + .2x

150 + .5x = 280 + .2x

.5x = 130 + .2x

.3x = 130

x = 433.33

i checked my answer by graphing each equation and $433.33 is the break-even point where each plan would have the same costs but, after that, the expenses for Plan B are less

3. Triangle ABC has angle measures as noted below. Please note this triangle is not drawn to scale, and the longest leg of the figure may not be the longest leg of the actual triangle.
You will need to use the expressions for the angles given below.

A) 2(x + 15) B) 3x+10 C) 5x

(a) Identify the angle relationship and set up your equation with the given expressions.
(b) What is the value of x? Show your work.
(c) What is the measure of angle A, B, & C? Show your work and make sure to identify which is which.

Answers

Answer:

x = 14

< A = 58 degrees

< B = 52 degrees

< C = 70 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the addition of the three internal angles of a triangle must render 180 degrees, then we can write:

<A + <B + <C = 180

and now replace with the algebraic expressions given for each angle:

2(x + 15) + 3 x + 10 + 5 x = 180

eliminate parenthesis

2 x + 30 + 3 x + 10 + 5 x = 180

combine like terms

10 x + 40 = 180

subtract 40 from both sides

10 x = 140

divide both sides y 10 to isolate x

x = 14

Now that we know x, we can calculate each of the angles using the fiven expressions:

< A = 2 (x + 15) = 2 (14 + 15) = 2 * 29 = 58 degrees

< B = 3 x + 10 = 3 * 14 + 10 = 52 degrees

< C = 5 x = 5 * 14 = 70 degrees

Answer:

I hope its right...

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A)

A + B + C = 180     and now replace with the algebraic expressions given for each angle:

2(x + 15) + 3 x + 10 + 5 x = 180n     eliminate parenthesis     2 x + 30 + 3 x + 10 + 5 x = 180

Part B)

2 (x+15) + 3x + 10+ 5x = 180        2x + 30 + 3x + 10 +5x = 180           10 +40 = 180

- 40 -40            10x divided by 10 = 140 divided by 10             x= 14

Part C)

A = 2 (x + 15) = 2 (14 + 15) = 2 * 29 = 58 degrees

< B = 3 x + 10 = 3 * 14 + 10 = 52 degrees

< C = 5 x = 5 * 14 = 70 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

J = 2b

M = J + 7

M = 21

J = 21 - 7

J = 14

B = 7

Equation:

If M is J+7, so then J = 21-7. J is 2*b, so 2*b = 21-7. Then you subtract and divide.

Answers

Answer:

To reduce a fraction to lowest terms (also called its simplest form), just divide both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor (GCF or GCD). For example, 2/3 is in lowest form, but 4/6 is not in lowest form (the GCD of 4 and 6 is 2) and 4/6 can be expressed as 2/3.

and the other option like i said earlier 3 hours is the example so 6*2 becasue their are 2 additional hours which is 12 plus 15 dollars from the first hour so 27 dollars

so the answer would be charge 15 dollars for the first hour and 6 for additional hour

The greatest common factor (GCF) for 15 and 6x is 3.

What is greatest common factor (GCF)?

The largest factor that splits both numbers is said to be the greatest common factor. List the prime factors of each integer before calculating the greatest common factor.

Calculation for greatest common factor (GCF):

The factors of 15 are 1,3,5,15. As all these number divide the number 15 completely such that there is no remainder left.The factors of 6x are 1,2,3,6. Since, all these divide 6x to leave no remainder.

Thus, the GCF of 15 and 6x are the number which is common in the factors of both numbers.

Therefore, greatest common factor GCF of 15 and 6x is 3.
