Answer:

A piece of Jewelry costs $4.5 and a hair accessory costs $1.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a piece of jewelry is $x and that of a piece of hair accessories is $y.

So, from the given conditions we can write two different equations as

5x + 8y = 34.5 ............ (1) and

2x + 16y = 33 ............... (2)

Now, solving the equations (1) and (2) we get

2x + 2(34.5 - 5x) = 33

⇒ 8x = 36

⇒ x = $4.5

Again, from the equation (2) we can write

2(4.5) + 16y = 33

⇒ 16y = 24

⇒ y = $1.5

Therefore, a piece of Jewelry costs $4.5 and a hair accessory costs $1.5. (Answer)

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

A. a + c ≥ 70; 15a + 4c ≤ 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given data:</u>

A community action committee is planning a block party

The party will be successful if at least 70 adults (a) and children (c) attend

Their budget for the party is $1,000

The cost for each adult will be $15

And the cost for each child will be $4

<u>Solution:</u>

<u />

At least 70 adults and children attend.

So the inequality here is a + c ≥ 70

The budget for the party is $1,000.

So the cost for all adults plus the cost for all children cannot exceed $1,000

And hence the inequality here is; 15a + 4c ≤ 1,000
