Answer:

disagree, 1009 candles will return out.

Step-by-step explanation:

A catalog store has 6% of its orders returned for a refund.

The number of new candles sold = 16,824

6% of the sale is returned for a refund = 6% of 16,824

                                                               = \frac{6}{100}\times 16,824

                                                               = 0.06 × 16,824

                                                               = 1009.44 ≈ 1009

No, I do not agree with this prediction of "812 candles will have returned out", because 6% of 16,824 is 1009 candles, that will have returned out.

X / 16,824 = 6 / 100
16,824 x 6 = 100,944
100,944 / 100 = 1,009.44
Disagree, approx. 1,009 will be returned.

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

600 L of 30% proof and 400 L of 80% proof is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of 30% smell proof be x while that of 80% smell proof is y

Then;

x + y = 1000 •••••(i)

Also;

30% of x + 80% of y = 50% of 1000

0.3x + 0.8y = 500 •••••(ii)

From i, x = 1000 - y

Put this into ii

0.3(1000-y) + 0.8y = 500

300 - 0.3y + 0.8y = 500

0.5y = 500-300

0.5y = 200

y = 200/0.5

y = 400 L

But x = 1000 - y

x = 1000 - 400 = 600 L

Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality y - 3x < -8?
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Option B,C and E are solution to given inequality y - 3x < -8

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to check which ordered pairs from given options satisfy the inequality y - 3x < -8

Ordered pairs are solutions to inequality if they satisfy the inequality

Checking each options by pitting values of x and y in given inequality

A ) (1, -5)

-5-3(1)

So, this ordered pair is not the solution of inequality as it doesn't satisfy the inequality.

B) (-3, - 2)

-2-3(-3) < -8\\-2-9

So, this ordered pair is solution of inequality as it satisfies the inequality.

C) (0, -9)

-9-3(0)

So, this ordered pair is solution of inequality as it satisfies the inequality.

D) (2, -1)

-1-3(2)

So, this ordered pair is not the solution of inequality as it doesn't satisfy the inequality.

E) (5, 4)​​​

4-3(5)

So, this ordered pair is solution of inequality as it satisfies the inequality.

So, Option B,C and E are solution to given inequality y - 3x < -8
