To start, you want to determine the inequality. You can do this by setting the number of buying n fish to be less than or equal to her current amount of money, being as it can't go over or she wouldn't be able to afford the fish. This inequality would be written so her amount of money (20) would be greater than or equal to the cost of n fish (2.5n), which would then look as such: 20≥2.5n. To solve this inequality, just solve for n by dividing both sides by 2.5, giving you 8≥n. This would mean that Becky can afford to buy up to 8 fish.

I need help solving this pls

Answer:

Adding them together. x = 3/2, y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding because we want to get rid of a variable. If we add, 2x + 6x = 8x, 1/2 * y + (-1/2 * y) = 0, and 7 + 5 = 12. Adding gets rid of the y variable.

By adding we get that 8x = 12 which gives us x = 12/8 = 3/2

Substituting this back into either equation will give us y = 8.

On a scale drawing with a scale of 1 cm: 3 m , the height of a tree is 5 cm. How tall is the actual tree?
Neko [114]
In 3 metres there are 300 centimetres. Each centimetre on the scale is 300 centimeters, or a ratio of 1:300. The tree is 5 centimetres on the scale. Each centimeter on the scale is 300 centimetres, therefore 5 centimetres on the scale is 1500 centimetres. 1500 centimetres is equal to 15 metres.
