Lizzie came up with a divisibility test for a certain number $m \neq 1$: Break a positive integer n into two-digit chunks, starting from the ones place. (For example, the number 354764 would break into the two-digit chunks 64, 47, 35.
Find the alternating sum of these two-digit numbers, by adding the first number, subtracting the second, adding the third, and so on. (In our example, this alternating sum would be 64-47+35=52.

Sorry for the big problem but I really need help with this :grimacing:

James wants to promote his band on the internet. site a offers website hosting for $4.95 per month with a $49.95 startup fee. site b offers website hosting for $9.95 per month with no startup fee. for how many months would james need to keep the website for site a to be a better choice than site b? define a variable for the situation. write an inequality that represents the situation. solve the inequality to find out how many months he needs to keep the website for site a to be less expensive than site b. using words, describe how many months he needs to keep the website for site a to be less expensive than site b.

Can someone me with this problem . show your work .

How can you tell when x and y are not directly proportional?
