Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
For the sake of the problem, let's make female workers "x" and male workers "y".
x+y<40 This equation shows that the total number of workers has a max of 40.
30x+20y<1,000 This equation shows that the total cost the manager pays ($30 to each woman, $20 to each man) has a max of $1,000.
Now you can solve for x and y.
X+y<40
-y -y
X<-y+40
Substitute -y+40 in for X in the second equation
30(-y+40)+20y<1,000
-30y+1200+20y<1,000 Distribute
-10y+1,200<1,000 Combine like terms
-10y<-200 Subtract 1,200
y>20 Divide by -10; flip the sign
Since y>20, and y=male workers, you now know that the minimum
number of male workers he should send is 20
560% as a decimal = 5.6
(move the decimal points 2 spaces to the left.)
560% as a mixed number = 5 3/5
(divide 560 by 100; 100 goes into 560 5 times so 5 will be your whole number and since you have 60 left you divide 60 by 100; 60/100 can be reduced to 3/5 if you divide the numerator and the denominator by 20)
hope this helps :)
Volume for rectangular prism is l x w x h
12cm x 6.5cm x 1.25cm = 97.5cm^3
Answer:
there are 9 quarters and 19 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of dimes and y the number of quarters
-dimes: 0.1x
-quarters: 0.25y
-the total amount of coins : x + y = 28
=> x = 28 - y
We have the equation:
0.25y + 0.1x = 4.15
0.25y + 0.1(28 - y) = 4.15
0.25y + 2.8 - 0.1y = 4.15
0.15y = 1.35
y = 9
x = 28 - y
= 28 - 9
= 19
