-3x-12> 8x + 21
+12 +12
-3x > 8x + 33
-8x -8x

-11x > 33
————-
-11

x < -3

I moved the real numbers to one side and and the variable to the other side to solve for the inequality

I also remembered somewhere that if you divide by a negative number the inequality sign switches.

Jamie and Stella are saving money to sign up for a school trip to Washington, D.C. In order to sign up for the trip, they must p

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Part 1: 25x ≥ 600

Part 2: 15y ≥ 600

Part 3: y ≤ 40

Explanation:

Verbal statements must be translated into algebraic expressions, equations or inequalities.

1. Money earned by Jamie washing cars for $25 each

Let x represent the number of cars Jaime washes.

2. Money earned by Stella making pecan pies for $15 each

Let y represent the number of pies she makes

3. Constraint on the number of pies that Stella can make because she only has enough supplies to make 40 pies.

Write an inequality using the symbol ≤, since y can take any integer value up to 40.

y ≤ 40

4. First question:

Part 1: Write a constraint (an inequality) to represent how much money Jamie needs for his trip

25x ≥ 600

5. Second question:

Part 2: Write a constraint (an inequality) to represent how much money Stella needs for her trip.

15y ≥ 600

6. Third question

Part 3: Write a constraint (an inequality) to represent the limitations of Stella's supplies.

From step # 3

y ≤ 40

7. Conclusion

You can solve the inequalities fo find whether Stella can or not afford the trip:

Solve for the inequalities that represent Stella's situation:

15y ≥ 600

y ≥ 600 / 15

y ≥ 40

From step 6: y ≤ 40

The solution set is the intersection of the two solutions:

y ≥ 40 ∩ y ≤ = 40 = 40.

Interpretation: Stella will be able to make 40 pies, which represents a revenue of $ 15 / pie × 40 pie = $ 600, so she will be able to make the trip.

Sydney has 24 coins that are a mixture of nickels and dimes that are worth $1.95. How many dimes does she have?

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer: 15 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Nickels are 5 cents and dimes are 10 cents and since they are a total of 1.95 coins in total we can set up the two equations and solve for how much there are for each of the money.

x + y = 24

0.05x + 0.10y = 1.95 so solve for y and x is the number of nickels while y is the number of dimes.

x+y=24

-y -y

x = -1y +24

0.05(-1y +24) + 0.10y = 1.95

-0.05y + 1.2 + 0.10y = 1.95

0.05y + 1.2 = 1.95

-1.2 -1.2

0.05y = 0.75

y = 15
