Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

c ≥ 56 is the REQUIRED INEQUALITY.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given question is INCOMPLETE.

Xander needs to collect at least 120 cans for a food drive to earn community service credit. He has already collected 64 items. Choose the inequality and solution to represent the number of cans, c, that Xander must still collect.

Now, here:

The number of cans Xander needed to collect = At least 120

The number of items already collected = 64

c: the number of cans, c, that Xander must still collect.

Now, the number of cans to be collected - Cans already collected

= 120 - 64 = 56

So, the number of can he must collect to make a TOTAL OF AT LEAST 120 cans = 56 cans

⇒ The number of cans to be collected ≥ 56 cans

⇒c ≥ 56 cans

or, c ≥ 56 is the REQUIRED INEQUALITY.

For the class of 2013's prom Norman's dress shop sold cheaper dresses for $90 each and more expensive dresses for $140 each. The

Tema [17]

Answer:

Number of cheaper dresses sold is 35

Number of expensive dresses sold is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of cheaper dresses = $90

Cost of expensive dresses = $140

Total cost of the dresses = $5250

To Find:

Number of cheaper dress = ?

Number of expensive dress = ?

Solution:

Let

The number of cheaper dresses be x

The number of expensive dresses be y

(Number of cheaper dresses X cost of cheap dress) + (Number of Expensive dresses X cost of expensive dress) = $5250

$x \times90 +y \times 140 = 5250$ = $5250

It is given that the 20 more of the cheaper dresses than the expensive dresses is sold

So,

number of cheaper dress = 20 + number of expensive dress

x = 20 + y---------------------------------------(1)

$(20+y) \times90 +y \times 140 = 5250 = 5250$

$(20 \times 90 +y\times 90) +y \times 140= 5250$

$1800 + 90y+ 140y = 5250$

$1800 + 230y = 5250$

$230y =5250 -1800$

$230y = 3450$

$y = \frac{3450}{230}$

y = 15

Substituting y in (1)

x = 20 +15

x= 35

What is 380 when it is increased by 18%

Yuri [45]

18%=0.18
380×0.18=68.4 increase
380+68.4=448.4

the easier way is to think 1 times any number is the same number so 380(1+0.18)=448.4 (just like adding tax to the price of something to see how much you'll actually pay)
