Answer:
Ounces of strawberry juice: 20 ounces
Ounces of water: 80 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we can use the equation:
x + y = 100 ounces
Where x = The number of ounces of strawberry juice
and y = The number of ounces of water
Since we know that Molly uses four times as many ounces of water for each ounce of strawberry juice, we can conclude that:
y = 4x
With this information, we can use substitution to solve for x.
x + y = 100 ounces
x + (4x) = 100
Combine like-terms.
5x = 100
x = 20
Now that we know the value of x, we can figure out how many ounces of strawberry juice and how many ounces of water Molly needs.
Since x = The number of ounces of strawberry juice, Molly needs to use 20 ounces of strawberry juice.
Since y = The number of ounces of water, Molly needs to use 80 ounces of strawberry juice. (y = 4x | x = 20 | y = 4(20) | y = 80)
~Hope this helps!~
Answer:
152
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function :
C(x)=−15x+2304
The least Number of items, x that can be produced so that average cost does not exceed $33
C(x) = less than or equal to 33
33 = - 15x + 2304
33 - 2304 = - 15x
-2271 = - 15x
x = 2271 / 15
x = 151. 4
Hence, the least number of items that can be produced is 152
1957 avg rate of 500,000 per every person
Set up an equation:
0.75x = 18
Divide both sides by 0.75:
x = 18/0.75
x = 24
Answer: 24
