Answer:

Ezra can water at most approximately 8 sunflower plants with the remaining amount of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality function

0.7S+0.5L≤11 where S represent the number of sunflower plants and L represent the number of lily plants Ezra's water supply can water, if Ezra waters 10 lily plants, then we can calculate the maximum amount of sunflower plant that he can water with the remaining amount of water by simply substituting L = 10 into the inequality function as shown;

0.7S+0.5L≤11

0.7S+0.5(10)≤11

0.7S+5≤11

Taking 5 to the other side:

0.7S≤11-5

0.7S≤6

S≤6/0.7

S≤8.57

This shows that Ezra can water at most approximately 8 sunflower plants with the remaining amount of water.

Karen is making a set of costumes for the school play using a piece of cloth. She reduces the length of the cloth she intends to

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The new length is 13.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the new length of the cloth she wants to use

What we know from the question is that she is making a reduction of 10% from an initial of 15 meters

Thus, the length she is to use can be calculated by first getting what 10% of 15 meters is

Mathematically, that would be ;

10/100 * 15 = 1.5 meters

We now subtract this from the total of 15 meters

= 15 meters - 1.5 meters = 13.5 meters

Henry needs a total of 15 pints.

3 pints of yellow multiplied by 3 gives 9 pints of yellow, he needs 6 pints of red to get to 15, so he multiplies 2 pints of red by 3 to get 6 pints of red.

You add 9 + 6 to get the total of 15 pints he needs.
