Michael has a substantial student debt, but he recently got a new job, which came with a signing bonus. He calculates that with his new job, he can put aside a fixed amount of money every month to pay off his debt. He also puts the entirety of his bonus towards paying off his debt. He constructs the expression 36,700-(5,000+500m) to represent the size of his debt after m months. Which number describes the value of his signing bonus?

5000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Constructed expression used to express size of debt after m, months :

36,700 - (5000 + 500m)

Since it was stated that he his whole signing bonus was dedicated towards paying his debt, then this will be a constant figure or digit.

Then a fixed amount from his monthly pay is also dedicated towards offsetting the loan:

Thus the fixed amount will be the Coefficient of m, where m is the number of months.

Thus total amount paid after m months can be deduced from the expression to be :

(5000 + 500m); where

5000 constant fee is the signing bonus.

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.

answer: first option i.e. 'a' is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

number of minutes to wrap a small gift box = 4 minutes

we need to find the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes

since there is a direct variation, as the number of minutes will increase with   number of gifts to be wrapped.

so, let the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes be x.

so, it becomes,

hence, first option 'a'   is correct.
