Natalie is going mountain biking. She can buy a bike for $250 or she can rent a bike for $30 an hour. In both cases, she must also rent a helmet for $5 an hour. Which inequality shows the number of hours Natalie must bike for the cost of buying a bike to be less than renting a bike?

Given :

Natalie is going mountain biking. She can buy a bike for $250 or she can rent a bike for $30 an hour.

In both cases, she must also rent a helmet for $5 an hour.

To Find :

Which inequality shows the number of hours Natalie must bike for the cost of buying a bike to be less than renting a bike.

Solution :

Let, after t hours total money required is ( if she rent bike ).

T = 30t.

Money required to purchase bike , M = $250.

For cost of buying a bike to be less than renting a bike :

Hence, this is the required solution.

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer

center (1,3) with radius 6

step-by-step explanation:

we must complete the square to find the center and radius of the circle.

first make sure the x and y squared terms have 1 as their coefficients. we also make sure x and y terms together.

we now create space between the x and y terms with parenthesis.

we complete the square by taking the middle terms -2x and the -6y - divide each and square them.

we add the squares to both sides.

simplify.

and write the quadratics in factored form.

the center is (h,k) or (1,3). the radius is the square root of 36 which is 6.
