Answer: The required inequality is,

4.75 b +3.50 ≤ 15.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, b represents the number of bags of fruit bought by her,

Since, the cost of each bag of fruits = $ 4.75,

⇒ The cost of b bags of fruit = 4.75b dollars,

Also, she buy one box of crackers that costs $3.50,

Thus, her total expenditure = 4.75 b + 3.50

According to the question,

Her total expenditure can not exceed to $ 15.00,

⇒  4.75 b + 3.50 ≤ 15.00

Which is the required inequality that is used to determine the maximum number of bags of fruit bought by her.

First write the inequality:    15\leq4.75x +3.50

Then to solve, first subtract 3.50 from both sides to get:

11.50\leq4.75x

Then divide by 4.75 to get 2.42, and since you can't buy .42 of a bag  of fruit, you round down. So your final answer would be 2 bags of fruit.

What constant term should be used to complete the square? x 2 - 5x + _____ = 7
amm1812
The quadratic equation in its generic form is:
 ax2 + bx + c
 To complete squares we must add the following term:
 (b / 2) ^ 2
 The equation is:
 ax2 + bx + c + (b / 2) ^ 2
 We have the following equation:
 x ^ 2 - 5x + k = 7
 By completing squares we have:
 x ^ 2 - 5x + (-5/2) ^ 2 = 7 + (-5/2) ^ 2
 Rewriting:
 x ^ 2 - 5x + 6.25 = 7 + 6.25
 Answer:
 
A constant term should be used to complete the square is:

I’m not sure how to explain this problem but I can take another picture if it isn’t clear
rosijanka [135]

In order to determine the value of x, consider that one of the interior angles of the triangle is given by:

180 - (4x - 18)

= 180 - 4x + 18

= 198 - 4x

Next, consider that the sum of the interioir angles of a triangle is equal to 180:

(2x + 6) + 36 + (198 - 4x)

= 2x + 6 + 36 + 198 - 4x

= -2x + 240

this is equal to 180:

-2x + 240 = 180

-2x = 180 - 240

-2x = -60

x = 60/2

x = 30

Hence, the value of x is x = 30
