Answer:

x =27

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 4y=65

lets substitute the value of y in the equation:

3x -4(4) =65

3x = 65 +16

3x= 81

x= 81/3

x = 27

Donna sent her grandson a birthday present. The box weighed 0.875 kilograms and the present itself weighed 6,800 grams. a. What

Nana76 [90]

A) We know that the box weighed 0.875 kg, and the present weighed 6,800 g. However we need the gross weight of the package in kg, so we have to convert the present's weight to kg. There are 1000 grams in 1 kg, so we can divide the present's weight by 100 to find the weight in kg:

$\frac{6,800}{1000} =6.8 kg$

Now that we have converted to grams, let's add the weight to get the total gross weight:

$0.875+6.8=7.675 kg$

So the gross weight of the package is 7.675 kg.

b) Shipping costs 74 cents per kg, so in order to find the total cost of shipping for the package, let's multiply the weight of the package by the cost of shipping:

$\frac{7.675kg}{1}* \frac{74 cents}{kg}=567.95 cents$

However the cost of shipping has to be in dollars. There are 100 cents in one dollar, so we need to divide the amount of cents that shipping costs by 100 to get the total in dollars:

$\frac{567.95cents}{100} =5.68dollars$

Now we know that the total cost of shipping, in dollars, is equal to $5.68.

The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society sponsors a 5k race to raise money. It receives $55 per race entry and $10,000 in donations, bu

photoshop1234 [79]

The net amount they raise is the amount they receive minus what they pay in expenses.

They receive:
$10,000 fixed amount in donations
$55 per person

They pay:
$15 per person

If there are x number of entries, they receive 55x from the entries.
Also, they pay 15x for the entries.

The net amount they raise is amount they receive min us amount they pay:

55x + 10,000 - 15x

which simplifies to

40x + 10,0000

They want to raise at least $55,000.
At least $55,000 means $55,000 or more.
They want to raise an amount greater than or equal to $55,000.

Now we write the inequality:

40x + 10,000 >= 55,000

Now we solve the inequality for x, the number of entries.

40x >= 45,000

x >= 1125

They must have 1125 or more race entries to raise $55,000.
