Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Why!

let x = number of slices sold

let y= number of pizzas sold

If you need to make a profit of at least 140 then you have to make what you paid + what you want = $320+$140 = $460

x= (40-y)8 = 320-8y  : 40 is the number of pizza they bought &each pizza has 8 slices

2x + 10y  ≥ 460

2 (320-8y) + 10≥460

Just solve it

180≥6y

30≥y

Therefore the greatest number of pizzas you can sell is 30 to make at least $140

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8b - 7 = 7b - 2

Bringing like terms on one side

8b - 7b = - 2 + 7

B = 5

-12 + 5k = 15 - 4k

Bringing like terms on one side

5k + 4k = 15 + 12

9k = 27

k = 27/9 = 3
