A law firm is going to designate associates and partners to a big new case. The daily rate charged to the client for each associate is $800 and the daily rate for each partner is $1300. The law firm assigned 3 more partners than associates to the case and was able to charge the client $12300 per day for these lawyers' services. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of associates assigned to the case and the number of partners assigned to the case. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

not enough information

step-by-step explanation:

we cannot know this, because the other students could have handed out 10 flyers, or they could have handed out 100. one way, the mean would go up, and another way, the mean would go down.

3 4 7 12 19

+1 +3 +5 +6

i would guess 26 because this isnt a sequential pattern or its to short to know

a) at most means it can cost $12 or less

so the inequality sign would be ≤

you would then need to multiply the number of toppings by the 0.35 for each one and add it to the cost of the cheese pizza.

the equation would be 9.99 + 0.35x ≤ 12

b) using the above equation:

9.99 + 0.35x ≤ 12

subtract 9.99 from each side:

0.35x ≤2.01

divide both sides by 0.35:

x ≤ 2.01 / 0.35

x ≤5.74

at most you could have 5 toppings.

the 5 topping pizza would cost: 0.35 x 5 = 1.75 + 9.99 = $11.74

wouldn't that be a) 1

4=4x then divide 4 on both sides and you get x=1
