Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the minimum number of cars Carole must wash to be able to buy the ticket to the musical.

Carole has $53.95 and washes cars for $8 each. This means that the total amount that she would earn after washing x cars is

8x + 53.95

Carole wants to attend a musical that costs $145.75. Therefore, the inequality to determine the minimum number of cars that Carole must wash to be able to buy the ticket to the musical is

8x + 53.95 ≥ 145.75

8x ≥ 145.75 - 53.95

8x ≥ 91.8

x ≥ 91.8/8

x ≥ 11.475

b) it is not the same. The minimum number of cars that Carole must wash is 12 because the number of cars cannot be a fraction and if she washes 11 cars, she cannot raise the needed amount.

Alexa has saved
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

A 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equation to find the percentage 2/7 equals:

Variable x = percentage

2/7 = x/100

Cross multiply:

2 × 100 = 7 × x

200 = 7x

Divide:

28.57142... = x

About 30% (I rounded to 30% because it is a nice number to use when all other numbers end in 5 or 0)

If Alexa has about 30% saved, she will need to save about 70% more. Find the solution that is closest to 70%.

A is 3/4 which comes out to 75%. So far, this sounds like the best answer. Let's check the others just in case.

B is 1/2, or 50% which isn't as close as A was to 70%.

C is 1 1/4 which means 125% needs to be saved. This would mean Alexa is in debt and hasn't saved any money which is not the case.

D is 1/4, or 25%. The trick here is that she's saved about 30% so 25% is closest, but we are looking for how much <em>more</em><em> </em>she needs to save.

Mr. Parker's farm borders a river. He buys 1,000 ft of fencing
Gelneren [198K]
When one side of a quadrilateral is not to be fenced (ex. a river, as in this case), the optimal fencing to maximize the area is always to use half the fencing for the length, and one-fourth for each of the two widths

A) For 1000 ft of fencing which is to be used to cover 1 length and 2 widths:
L = 1000/2 = 500, and W = 1000/4 = 250. The optimal dimensions will be 250 x 500 ft.

B) This will result in an area of 250*500 = 125,000 sq. ft.
