Answer:

8 video games and 5 movies

Explanation:

In solving this equation the no of movies = m and the no of games = g  

500 <= 20m + 50g  ......eqn 1

m+g > 11     ......................eqn 2

to solve for m,

m > 11-g

We substitute this into eqn 1

500 <= 20(11-g) + 50g

500 <= 220-20g+50g

500 <=220 + 30g

280 <= 30g

9.33333 <=g

so Lesley can buy equal to or less than 9 video games.

The combination of movies and video games that is optimal would be 8 games and 5 movies.

Which is 20(5) + 50(8) = $100+ $400 = $500

A student has a savings account earning 9% simple interest. She must pay $1400 for first-semester tuition by September 1 and $14
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer: The answer is $2,759.22

Explanation: From the question above, we have:

September 1st to January 1st is 4 months, this is 1/3 of a year which means that the student will earn:

=> 9/3 = 3%

3% interest for the money that is saved is the savings account. So the student must put in at least:

x + 3%x = 1400

x + 0.03x = 1400

1.03x = 1400

x = 1400 / 1.03

x = 1,359.22

Therefore, if the student saves $1,359.22 in the savings account By September 1st, she will have $1400 by January 1st.

Also, the student needs to make $1400 for the first semester. So overall she will need to make:

1,400 + 1,359.22 = $2,759.22 during the summer in order to ensure that she will have enough money to pay for both semesters.
