Answer:

80\ people

Step-by-step explanation:

Per person available ladles full of soup=4

Total number of persons=120

Hence total number of ladles full of soup=120\times 4=480

Now per person available ladles full of soup=6

Total number of persons that can be fed

=\frac{total\ availability}{per\ person\ requirements}\\\\=\frac{480}{6}\\\\=80

Which statement about the solution of the inequality k<-3 1/4 is true?
Juliette [100K]

Answer: Last option

The number -8.4 is a solution to the inequality because -8.4 is located to the left of -3\frac{1}{4} on the number line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that: -3\frac{1}{4} =-3-\frac{1}{4} =-3.25

The inequality is:

k

The inequality is:

This means that the inequality includes all values of the number line that are less than -3.25 or that are to the left of -3.25

__-8.4_________-3.25_-3____0___0.9____________7.1__

Note that the number -8.4 is less than -3.25, because it is to its left on the number line.

Then the correct statement is:

The number -8.4 is a solution to the inequality because -8.4 is located to the left of -3\frac{1}{4} on the number line.

Please i really need help or ill get in big trouble please. Ill give 29 points to who ever helps.
MAVERICK [17]
Part A: 6m + 12 + 42m, which combines to form 48m + 12. Another expression is 12 + 48m, because using the commutative property of addition, it is equivalent.

Part B: As I stated earlier, using the commutative property of addition, your expression 12 + 48m is equivalent to 48m + 12.

Part C: If you substitute 2 for m, you will get 108. If they are talking about the main equation, then if you substitute 2 for m, you will have 6(2 + 2 + 14) = 108.

Answer:

number of adult shirts sold (a) = 20

number of youth shirts sold (b) = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

a = number of adult shirts sold

y = number of youth shirts sold

30 = a + y

$324.50 = 11.50a + 9.45y

This is the resulting system of equations from the given information in the problem.

Solve for y in the first equation and then substitute the equation for y into the second equation :

a+y=30 --> y=30-a

324.50 = 11.50a + 9.45(30-a)

Solve for a.

324.50 = 11.50a + 283.5 - 9.45a

41 = 2.05a

a = 20

Now that we have solved for a, we can back substitute into our equation for y and solve.

y=30-(20)

y = 10

CHECK:

(20)+(10) = 30 True

(11.50)(20) + (9.45)(10) = 324.5  True
