Tony’s club is selling oranges to raise money. For every box they sell, they get 1 1/8 dollars profit. They have sold 75 boxes already. How many more boxes must they sell to raise 180 dollars?

Answer: We are given:

The amount of money Tony's club get for every box they sell =1 \frac{1}{8} =1.125 dollar

They amount of money Tony's club has raised by selling 75 boxes is:

75 \times 1.125=84.375 dollars

The amount of money Tony's club is required to raise = 180 dollars

The remaining need to be raised is :

180-84.375=95.625 dollars

Therefore, the number of more boxes to be sold are:

\frac{95.625}{1.125}=85

Hence, 85 more boxes they must sell to raise 180 dollars

A garden supply store sells two types of lawn mowers. Total ales of mowers for the year were $8379.70. The total number of mower
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The number of small mowers are 19 and the large mowers are 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A garden supply store sells two types of lawn mowers. Total sales of mowers for the year were $8379.70. The total number of mowers sold the 30. The small mower cost $249.99 and the large mower costs $329.99.

Now, to find the number of each type of mower sold.

Let the number of small mower be x.

And the number of large mower be  y.

So, total number of mowers are:

x+y=30

x=30-y\ \ \ ....(1)

Now, the total sales of mowers are:

249.99(x)+329.99(y)=8379.70

Substituting the value of x from equation (1) we get:

249.99(30-y)+329.99y=8379.70

7499.7-249.99y+329.99y=8379.70

7499.7+80y=8379.70

<em>Subtracting both sides by 7499.7 we get:</em>

80y=880

<em>Dividing both sides by 80 we get:</em>

y=11.

The number of large mower = 11.

Now, to get the number of small mowers we substitute the value of y  in equation ( 1 ):

x=30-y\\x=30-11\\x=19.

The number of small mower = 19.

Therefore, the number of small mowers are 19 and the large mowers are 11.

Elza [17]

Given:

A company wants to select 1 project from a set of 4 possible projects.

Consider the options are:

a. X_1+X_2+X_3+X_4=1

b. X_1+X_2+X_3+X_4\leq 1

c. X_1+X_2+X_3+X_4\geq 1

d. X_1+X_2+X_3+X_4\geq 0

To find:

The constraints that ensures only 1 will be selected.

Solution:

It is given that the company wants to select 1 project from a set of 4 possible projects. It means the sum of selected projects must be equal to 1.

X_1+X_2+X_3+X_4=1

Therefore, the correct option is (a).

Can someone explain to me in words how to do this problem 3x+122=22x-11
inn [45]

When you have this type of problem, you need to combine the like-terms and isolate the variable.

3x + 122 = 22x - 11

Add 11 to both sides to get rid of it

3x + 122 + 11 = 22x - 11 + 11     (-11 + 11=0)

3x + 133 = 22x

Then you would bring the 3x to the other side, so subtract 3x from both sides

3x + 133 = 22x

-3x             -3x

133 = 22x - 3x

133 = 19x

Then divide both sides by 19 to isolate x

133/19 = 19x/19

133/19 = 7, so x = 7

Hope this helps!!
