Let
X-----------------> number of pansies
y-----------------> number of trees
we know that
x=15*8----------> x=120 pansies
y=8 trees
cost of each trees is----------> $<span>20.75
</span>cost of each pansies is------> $2.50/6------> $5/12
[<span>expression to find Katherine’s final cost]=[cost trees]+[cost pansies]
</span>[cost trees]=y*$20.75
[cost pansies]=x*($5/12)
[expression to find Katherine’s final cost]=y*($20.75)+x*($5/12)
[expression to find Katherine’s final cost]=8*($20.75)+120*($5/12)
[expression to find Katherine’s final cost]=$166+$50
[expression to find Katherine’s final cost]=$216
the answer is
[expression to find Katherine’s final cost]=y*($20.75)+x*($5/12)
[expression to find Katherine’s final cost]=8*($20.75)+120*($5/12)
Katherine’s final cost is $216
12000 x 0.40 = 4800
12000 - 4800 = 7200
7200 acres are being logged
hope this helps
Oh my gosh...thats a lot. Umm, well let's start with what the equation says. This will break it down to where it's of better understanding. What is the equation asking you to do? You have heard of the acronym "PEMDAS", correct? (Parantheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction) Follow that order of operations and see what it is the equation wants done first. Solve it, basically...then we will focus on the actual question parts.
Yes, it would still remain the same.
Writing the problem as an equation you have:
2x+6 > -16
Solve for x:
2x+6 > -16
Subtract 6 from each side:
2x > -22
Divide both sides by 2:
x > -11
The answer is: x > -11
