Cost of milk per carton = $ 70 cents = 70/100 = $0.7
Cost of bread per loaf = $60 cents = 60/100 = $0.6
Cost of cereals per box = $50 cents = 50/100 = $0.5
Cost of meat per pound = $1.50
If x is the number of cartons of milk bought, then
Number of loafs = x/2
Number pf boxes of cereals = x/2 +1
Number of pounds of meat = x/2 +1
Therefore,
0.7*x + 0.6*x/2 + 0.5 (x/2+1) + 1.5 (x/2+1) = 10
0.7x + 0.3x + 0.25x + 0.5 + 0.75x + 1.5 = 10
2x + 2 =10
2x = 8
x = 4
Substituting;
Milk cartons = 4
Number of bread = 4/2 = 2
Boxes of cereals = 2+1 = 3
Pounds of meat = 3
The answer to the question is that the surface area is 48
Answer:
The inequality required to express the above condition is x ≥ 18.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Renata and her family go through an average of more than 15 cans of sparkling water each day.
The number of cases of 24 cans of sparkling water.
We can take the number of cases to be x.
Each case is said to cost $3.50.
An inequality for the number of cases that Renata's family go through in 24 days can be written as
x ≥
⇒ x ≥
⇒ x ≥ 18.75
Therefore the inequality required to express the above condition is
x ≥ 18.75
