Answer:
2c + 3l ≤ 60
No
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say you buy c yards of cotton lace and l yards of linen lace. The cotton lace will cost $2 per yard, and for c yards, you have to pay $2 c times, coming to a total of 2*c for the cotton lace. For the linen lace, you'd have to pay 3*l for l yards. The total amount of lace is thus equal to cotton lace cost + linen lace cost = 2c + 3l.
Total amount needs to be less than or equal to 60 (at most 60), so total amount = 2c + 3l ≤ 60
We can then plug our values of cotton and linen lace into our equation
12 yards of cotton lace, 15 yards of linen lace
2c + 3l ≤ 60
2(12) + 3(15) ≤ 60
24 + 45 ≤ 60
69 ≤ 60
This is false, so you cannot buy these amounts of lace.
Answer: the answer is c) $0.85
Step-by-step explanation:
if he has 3/20 of a dollar that calculates to $0.15 and $1.00 minus $0.15 equals $0.85
Answer:
1. 2 cups
2. 0.5.
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two triangles, a big triangle and a small triangle that is inside the big triangle. Because the base of the triangles are parallel to each other( indicated by the arrow), and the small triangle is perfectly inside the bigger triangle, the sides of the triangles are proportional.
It is know that the base of the small triangle is 3.5, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle is 7cm. it is also known that the the hypotenuse of the big triangle is (7+8)=15 and the base of the big triangle is unknown.
Since the triangles are proportional,
to find the base of the big triangle
base(big)/hypotenuse(big)=base(small)/hypotenuse(small)
Plug in the numbers
x/15=3.5/7
x/15=1/2
x=15/2
x=7.5
The length of the base of the big triangle is 7.5cm
If the line is parallel, it has the same slope. So now just find the y intercept and put it into slope-intercept form
