Answer:
Exact answer not possible: See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total that Tammy would pay is the sum of 2A and 5B, where A and B are the number of candies costing $2 and $5, respectively. Therefore:
2A + 2B = Total Spent
We are told Tammy spent <u>at least</u> $75, which can be written as "Total Spent > $75."
The equation becomes 2A + 5B > 75
Rearranging:
2A + 5B > 75
2A > 75 - 5B
A > (75 - 5B)/2
To find the maximum of the candy A bought, one can try different values of A and B that result in a total of at least $75. If the amount spent were $75 exactly, a solution would be 35 A (for $70), leaving $5 for 1 candy B. But we don't know the exact amount. The problems states "at least $75." As far as we know, Tammy may have spent $105, $405, $1,005, or even $4,005 (200 A and 1 B). One cannot pick a maximum simply since the maximum spent is not defined. The next possible value above $75 would be $77, which represents 36 A and 1 B candies.
Each pound costs 2.40,
to check this 2.40 * 5 = 12
so 2.40 * 7 = 16.80
Answer: 16.80
Answer:
19.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of brown paint to white paint is, 5:7 or
so if he bought 14 gallons of white paint we need to figure out:

which we can as it only has one unknown:
5x=14×7
5x=98
x=19.6
So the answer is 19.6
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 4 = x + 12 [The straight line on the segments AB and BC indicate that they are the same length]
2x = 8 [Subtract x and 8 from both sides]
x = 4 [Divide both sides by two]
Length AB is equal to (3x + 4) as indicated by the diagram. Substituting x = 4, (3 * 4) + 4 = 16
Answer:A = 1500e^(0.03 * 5) = 1500e^(0.15)
use definition of logarithm
0.15 = ln(A / 1500)
0.15 = ln(A) - ln(1500)
ln(A) = 0.15 + ln(1500) = 0.15 + 7.313220387 = 7.463220387
