We are given : Cost of a gallon of milk = $2.50.
Cost of a cup of yogurt = $1.20.
Total money Monica has = $20.
Number of cups of yogurt Monica can buy = x.
And inequality made is also correct
1.20x + 2.5 ≤ 20.
Now, we need to solve it for x.
Subtracting 2.5 from both sides, we get
1.20x + 2.5 -2.5 ≤ 20 - 2.5.
1.20x ≤ 17.5
Dividing both sides by 1.20, we get
1.20x/1.20 ≤ 17.5/1.20.
x ≤ 14.5833...
Because it's less than 15, so final answer is : 14 is greatest number of cups of yogurt Monica can buy.
Well, 1/4 = 2x.
1/4 / x = 2
cause 2x is multiplication
and the other side shows divison for the right side of the and
also, solution
x = .125
Well, first you should make both sides of the equation to the power of 2.
So, you'll have 7X = 1225, and then X is 175 :)
Have a wonderful day!
Steve payed $4 in tax because 10% of 40 is 4. Steve payed $44 in total because 4+40=44.
This is how I would do it, hope this helps!
