Considering the definition of an inequality, the maximum number of tickets that they can buy is 10.

<h3>Definition of inequality</h3>

An inequality is the existing inequality between two algebraic expressions, connected through the signs:

greater than >.
less than <.
less than or equal to ≤.
greater than or equal to ≥.

An inequality contains one or more unknown values called unknowns, in addition to certain known data.

Solving an inequality consists of finding all the values of the unknown for which the inequality relation holds.

<h3>Maximum number of tickets that they can buy</h3>

In this case, you know that

One ticket to a ride of the merry-go-round at the Sunday Fair costs $2.
Jenny and her friends have $36 with them.
After buying tickets to the merry-go-round, they want to be left with no less than $15.

So, they want to spend on the purchase of tickets for the merry-go-round a value less than or equal to $36 - $15= $21.

Being "x" the maximum number of tickets that they can buy, the inequality that expresses the previous relationship is

2x≤ 21

Solving:

x≤ 21÷2

Then, the maximum number of tickets that they can buy is 10.

Answer:

Your power function is y=-2 $x^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The way I found it was.

0=0, so, the function multiply by zero, and have no other term to add

A number (one in a case) gives as a result: -2. So, one, elevated to ANY power results in one, every time. So, I have 1, as a factor and -2 as a result. One is as well a factor that delivers a result equal to the other factor. (3)(1)=3 , (8987)(1)=8987. So, the other factor must be -2

Then I checked all the table, and the results were consistent.

Miss Johnson gave a $1.50 tip to a waitress for serving a meal costing $10.00. What percent of the bill was her tip? PLZ ANSWER

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

it's 15 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

1% = 0.10

2% = 0.20 and so on

so we know that 1% is 0.10 so if you multipy 15 x 10= 150 and if you do 1.50 divieded by 10 you would get 15 :)

<h3>Answer: Choice D) 7.5 cm</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

We are told that quadrilateral ABCD is similar to quadrilateral EFGH.

The order of the four letter sequence is important.

For ABCD, we have AB as the first pair of letters.
For EFGH, we have EF as the first pair of letters.

Therefore, AB and EF are corresponding sides.

So AB = 10 and EF = x pair up together. We can form the ratio AB/EF which becomes 10/x.

The diagram shows that AD = 8. Notice that A and D are the first and last letters of ABCD. The first and last letters of EFGH are E and H. We can see that AD and EH correspond to one another because of this.

AD = 8 and EH = 6 forming the ratio AD/EH = 8/6

Because the quadrilaterals are similar, the corresponding ratios must be the same. Therefore, AB/EF is the same as AD/EH.

-----------------------

Let's set up a proportion to solve for x

AB/EF = AD/EH

10/x = 8/6

10*6 = x*8

60 = 8x

8x = 60

x = 60/8

x = 7.5 Answer is choice D
