You have 23 1/2 pounds of blueberries to store in freezer bags. Each bag holds 3 3/4 pounds of blueberries. What is the minimum
monitta

Answer:

The minimum number of freezer bags needed to store all the blueberries is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the number of freezer bags needed , divide the total pounds of blueberries by 3 3/4, but first convert mixed number to an improper fraction

23\frac{1}{2}\ lb=\frac{23*2+1}{2}=\frac{47}{2}\ lb

3\frac{3}{4}\ lb=\frac{3*4+3}{4}=\frac{15}{4}\ lb

\frac{47}{2}:\frac{15}{4}=\frac{47*4}{2*15} =\frac{94}{15}=6.3\ bags

Round up

7 bags

therefore

The minimum number of freezer bags needed to store all the blueberries is 7

An advertising company charges $60 per half-page advertisement and $100 per full-page advertisement. Michael has a budget of $13
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The number of half-page advertisements is 4.

The number of Full-page advertisements is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

  • Given, An advertising company charges $60 per half-page advertisement and $100 per full-page advertisement. Michael has a budget of $1340 to purchase 15 advertisements.

Let, 'x' be the number of half-page advertisements and 'y' be the number of full-page advertisements.

  • Thus, 60x + 100y is the money charged, and given that he has a budget of $ 1340.

       60x + 100y = 1340

  • And, the number of advertisements is 15. So, the other equation is

       x + y = 15

Now, We have Two Equations,

60x + 100y = 1340 and x + y = 15

  • the solution of the system is Put x=(15-y) in Equation 60x + 100y = 1340

60 (15-y) + 100y = 1340

900 - 60y + 100y = 1340

40y = 1340 - 900

40y = 440

y = 440/40

y = 11 So, For x = 15 - y ⇒ 15-11 ⇒ x=4 .

  • Thus, the number of half-page advertisements is 4 and The number of Full-page advertisements is 11 .
