Answer:
5 Green earrings
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Total amount held = $51
Cost per pair of green earrings = $9
One time shipping fee = $6
How many pairs of green earrings did grace purchase?
Let the number of green earrings purchased = g
Then,
$9*g + $6 = $51
$9g + $6 = $51
$9g = $51 - $6
$9g = $45
g = $45 / $9
g = 5
Hence, the number of green earrings purchased = 5

The equation you wrote has no solutions since the left hand side is equal to 6x-10 and the right hand side is equal to 6x+8. Setting them equal we get -10=8 which is obviously wrong.
Answer:
10657.5
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>
Long way that is unnecessarily long</h2>
We can start by finding the area of the larger triangle. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can say that 251²-105²=the bottom side², and 251²-105²=51976, so the bottom side of the larger triangle is √51976 , or approximately 228. Then, the area of the larger triangle is √51976 * 105/2 = 11969 (approximately). Then, the area of the smallest triangle (the largest triangle - the one that we're trying to find the area of) is 105*(√51976-203)/2 = approximately 1312. Then, subtracting that from the total area, we get (√51976 * 105 - 105*(√51976-203))/2 = 105*203/2 = 10657.5
<h2>Short way</h2>
ALTERNATIVELY, upon further review, we can just see that the height is 105 and the base is 203, so we multiply those two and divide by 2, as is the formula for the area of a triangle, to get 10657.5
Answer:
x > 9/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write inequality
2/3x - 1/5 > 1
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
- Add 1/5 to both sides: 2/3x > 6/5
- Divide both sides by 2/3: x > 9/5
Here we see that any <em>x</em> value greater than 9/5 will work.
