Answer:

Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>

Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

  • Style A shoes = x
  • Style B shoes = y

Forming equations :

  1. x = 2y - 24
  2. 66.95x + 84.95y = 17,652

Substitute the value of x from 1 in 2.

  • 66.95 (2y - 24) + 84.95y = 17,652
  • 133.90y - 1606.80 + 84.95y = 17,652
  • 218.85y = 19258.80
  • <u>y = 88</u>

<u />

Finding x :

  • x = 2(88) - 24
  • x = 176 - 24
  • <u>x = 152</u>

<u />

Solution :

  • Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>
  • Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>

Sarah is allowed to watch no more than 10 hours of television each week. Sarah has already watched 6 hours of television. Define
sashaice [31]

Answer:

Inequality = 6 + x ≤ 10

x(Number of hours more of television Sarah can still watch this week) = 4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Define a variable, set up an inequality and solve that inequality to determine how many more hours of television Sarah can watch this week.

We are told in the question that:

Sarah is allowed to watch no more than 10 hours of television each week.

This means :

Sarah can watch tv for less than or equal to 10 hours in a week. Sarah has already watched 6 hours of television.

Hence:

The number of hours left that Sarah can watch television in a week is represented as x

Our Inequality Equation =

6hours + x hours ≤ 10 hours

6 + x ≤ 10

Solving the inequality

x ≤ 10 - 6

x ≤ 4 hours

This means Sarah still has no more than (less than or equal to) 4 hours or television left to watch in this week
