Answer:

The answer is 108.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved with a simple proportion. 5/12 = 45/1. For 5 to become 45, you need to multiply by 9. You do the same to the denominator. 12 times 9 is 108.

Samantha needs to bake at least 120 pot pies to sell at her restaurant. she can bake 12 pot pies per hour and 15 veggie pot pies
Veronika [31]

Answer:

y>(line under >) - 4/5x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Phrase "at least" indicates that the total number of pies is greater than or equal to 120.

The number of chicken pot pies Samantha makes is 12x, and the number of veggie pot pies she makes is 15y.

Use this information to create the inequality:

12x + 15y >(line under >) 120

Simplify by solving for y to get this inequality:

y >(line under >) - 4/5x + 8
