Answer:
5x + 3y = 95
8x + 6y = 170
x = 10 ; y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
x = pack of juice boxes
y = pack of water bottles
Pack of juice box = $5
Pack of water bottles = $3
Amount of money spent :
5x + 3y = $95
Number of drinks purchased :
8x + 6y = 170
Using both equations ;
5x + 3y = 95 - - - (1)
8x + 6y = 170 - - - (2)
Multiply (1) by 6 and (2) by 3
30x + 18y = 570
24x + 18y = 510
Subtract :
6x = 60
x = 60 / 6
x = 10
Put x = 10 in (1)
5(10) + 3y = 95
50 + 3y = 95
3y = 95 - 50
3y = 45
y = 45 / 3
y = 15
x = 10 ; y = 15

You may want to use an online graphing calculator to help with this problem. :)
First, let's write down this inequality:
<span>There are at least 245 students enrolled in the school.
y≥245
This inequality says what the sentence says!
now, the number of teachers must be:
x≥2*(y/25)
(two times the number of groups of students of 25!)
so those two inequalities, taken together will be the answer!

Answer:
We can call the amounts of red, gray, and brown dye 1 1/8x, 3/4x and 5/8 x respectively and we can write the equation:
1 1/8x + 3/4x + 5/8x = 20
2 1/2x = 20
x = 8 which means that the stylist needs 1 1/8 * 8 = 9 oz red, 3/4 * 8 = 6 oz gray and 5/8 * 8 = 5 oz brown.
Hope this is straightforward.
