Answer: L greater than 31
Step-by-step explanation:
Trevor is swimming laps to raise at over 100 dollars for the local food bank. He earns $1.85 per lap and has already swum 23 laps.
This means that the total amount that he has raised is number of laps that he has swum × the amount he earns per lap. Therefore,
Amount that he has already raised
= 1.85 × 23 = $42.55
100 - 42.55 = 57.45
He still needs to raise an amount greater than $57.45
To raise this amount, he needs to swim more laps. Number of laps that he needs to swim will be
57.45/1.85 = 31.05
Approximately 31 laps
Let the number of laps that he needs to swim be L
The inequality to show how many more laps Trevor needs to swim in order to raise more than $100 will be
L greater than 31
Answer:
nice
Step-by-step explanation:
The answers are:
B; (225)(0.15) and E; 225 - [(225)(0.85)] Hope this helps!
You reduce the fraction which would be 9b-1/3=5b+ 5/3
Then you move the variable to the left side and change its sign 9b-5b-1/3=5/3 then move the constant to the right side 9b-5b=5/3+1/3
Then collect the terms 4b= 5/3 + 1/3 add the fractions 4b = 2
Divide both sides of the equation which is b= 1/2
