he solution set is
{
x
∣
x
>
1
}
.
Explanation
For each of these inequalities, there will be a set of
x
-values that make them true. For example, it's pretty clear that large values of
x
(like 1,000) work for both, and negative values (like -1,000) will not work for either.
Since we're asked to solve a "this OR that" pair of inequalities, what we'd like to know are all the
x
-values that will work for at least one of them. To do this, we solve both inequalities for
x
, and then overlap the two solution set
Answer:
7 , 5 , 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property of 18(12), or simply 18 * 12, is 216. (This is your answer.)
My teacher taught me a simple equation for these types of problems:
(percent of solution × amount of solution) + (percent of solution × amount of solution) = (percent of solution × total amount of solution)
in simple terms: %amount + %amount = %total amount
We know don't know how much gallons of 60% solution we need so it will be represented as x. We dont know the total amount either so it would have to be both solutions added together so 50 + x. Now lets solve:
(0.60)(x) + (0.24)(50) = (0.50)(50 + x) simplify/ distribute
0.6x + 12 = 25 +0.5x get all xs on one side and numbers on other
0.1x + 12 = 25
0.1x = 13 divide both sides by 0.1 to find x
x = 130
You need 130 gallons of 60% solution.
(93+67+78+44+123)/5=405/5=81 pizzas per day on average
C is your answer.
