Answer:
4500 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
750 rounded to the nearest hundred is 800. 2,488 rounded to the nearest hundred is 2,500. 155 rounded to the nearest hundred is 200. 1,015 rounded to the nearest hundred is 1,000. So 800+2,500+200+1,000= 4,500
Answer:
Brownies made the most money
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c = cookies
b = brownies
We sold 51 items so c+b = 51
Cookies are .75 and brownies are 1.25
.75c + 1.25 b = 53.25
We have 2 equations and 2 unknowns
c = 51-b
Substituting into the second equation
.75(51-b) + 1.25b = 53.25
Distribute
38.25-.75b +1.25b = 53.25
Combine like terms
38.25+.5b = 53.25
Subtract 38.25 from each side
38.25 +.5b -38.25 = 53.25 -38.25
.5b =15
Divide each side by .5
.5b/.5 = 15/.5
b = 30
Now find c
c =51-b
c = 51-30
c = 21
They sold 30 brownies and 21 cookies
30 brownies * 1.25 =37.50
21 cookies *.75 = 15.75
Brownies made the most money
So -5x=-50
multiply both sides by -1
5x=50
divide by 5
x=10
check
-5 times 10=-50
-50=-50
