The inequality <u>6s - 300 > 210</u> represents the minimum number of socks (s) when George bought socks for "$"300 and planned to sell them for $6 a pair, and want to make a profit of more than 210.

In the question, we are given that George bought socks for $300.

Therefore, George's total cost = $300.

We assume the number of pairs of socks George sells to be s.

The unit price per pair quoted by George = $6

Therefore, George's total sales = $6s.

We know that the profit over a transaction is given as the difference between sales and costs, that is,

The profit = The total sales - the total costs,

or, profit = 6s - 300.

In the question, we are required to make a profit of more than 210.

This can be shown by the inequality,

6s - 300 > 210.

Thus, the inequality <u>6s - 300 > 210</u> represents the minimum number of socks (s) when George bought socks for "$"300 and planned to sell them for $6 a pair, and want to make a profit of more than 210.

The sum of four consecutive intergers is 8 What are the intergers
Semmy [17]
Consecutive integers are 1 apart
so the 4 are
x, x+1,x+2,x+3

they add to 8

x+x+1+x+2+x+3=8
4x+6=8
minus 6 both sides
4x=2
divide both sides by 4
x=1/2
false, 1/2 is not an integer

if it was adding to 18, then the integers would be 3,4,5,6
but we can't find consecutive integers that add to 8

What are the intercepts of the line?
Schach [20]
To solve your X int you substitute 0 for y.

X int-
-5x+9(0)=-18
-5x=-18
X= 18/5 and the coordínate is (18/5,0)

Then to solve for y int you substitute 0 for x.

-5(0)+9y=-18
9y=-18
Y= -2 and the coordinate is (0,-2)
