Answer:

Therefore Josiah must sell 68 or 69 or 70 tacos in order to meet the requirement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , Josiah owns a food truck that sells tacos and burritos.

He sells each burritos for $7.50. If 79 burritos were sold.

Then the price of 79 burritos is $(7.50×79) =$592.50

Let x tacos were sold.

He sells each tacos for $5.

Then the price of x tacos is = $(x × 5)=$5x

Also given that Josiah must sell a minimum of $930 worth of tacos and burritos.

Therefore,

5x+592.50≥ 930

⇔5x≥930-592.50

⇔5x≥337.5

⇔x≥67.5

But he only has enough supplies to make 149 tacos or burrito.

He already sold 79 burrito.

So, remain space for tacos is = (149-79) = 70

So,67.5≤x≤70

∴x = 68 or 69 or 70

Therefore Josiah must sell 68 or 69 or 70 tacos in order to meet the requirement.

One-half of a number,<br> increased by 69 is 74.<br> What is the number?

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be n then half the number is $\frac{1}{2}$ n , so

$\frac{1}{2}$ n + 69 = 74 ( subtract 69 from both sides )

$\frac{1}{2}$ n = 5 ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

n = 10

Thus the number is 10

Write an inequality to represent the graph. a solid line passing through points 0 comma negative 7 and 3 comma negative 5 with s

lesantik [10]

Answer:

$y> \frac{2x}{3} -7$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the straight line passing through the points (0,-7) and (3,-5) will be $\frac{y-(-7)}{-7-(-5)} =\frac{x-0}{0-3}$

⇒ $\frac{y+7}{2} =\frac{x}{3}$

⇒ $y=\frac{2x}{3} -7$ ......... (1).

Now, the inequality shades the upper portion of the straight line.

Therefore, the y value for the inequality will be more than y value for the equation corresponding to a fixed value of x.

Hence, the inequality equation will be $y> \frac{2x}{3} -7$ . (Answer)

Burka [1]

Answer:

Yes they are of the same size since they have the same number and standard unit of measurement (i.e 24 inches).

Each person measures the circumference of the circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Priya, Han, and Mai each measured one of the circular objects from earlier.

Priya says that the bike wheel is 24 inches.

Han says that the yo-yo trick is 24 inches.

Mai says that the glow necklace is 24 inches.

Do you think that all these circles are the same size?

Yes they are of the same size since they have the same number and standard unit of measurement (i.e 24 inches).

What part of the circle did each person measure?

Each person measures the circumference of the circle.

The circumference also known as the perimeter of the circle is denoted by :

C = 2π r

The circumference of a circle is the distance round the edges of the circle.

Given that C = 24

24 = 2π r

r = 24/(2π)

r = 3.8 inches

This confirms the claim that all the circle are of the same size since they possess the same radius.
