\frac{3x-64}{2x}=\frac{1x}{6x}\\\\

If the ratio of the number of bottles of apple juice to the number of bottles of orange juice was 3:2, then you can denote 3x - the number of bottles of apple juice and 2x - the number of bottles of orange juice.

After he sold 64 bottles of apple juice, the number of bottles of apple juice became 3x-64 and the number of bottles of orange juice remained 2x.

The new ratio is 1:6, this means that

\dfrac{3x-64}{2x}=\dfrac{1}{6}.

Solve this equation:

(3x-64)\cdot 6=2x\cdot 1,\\18x-384=2x,\\18x-2x=384,\\16x=384,\\ \\x=\dfrac{384}{16}=24.

In the end Mr. Young had:

  • 3x-64=3\cdot 24-64=8 bottles of apple juce;
  • 2x=2\cdot 24=48 bottles of orange juice.

Today, the mailman sorted 57 letters during his first hour of work, 69 letters during his second hour, 81 letters during his thi
mars1129 [50]
The answer is 93 

If we sorted out the number of each hours, the sequence will look like this

57 _    69  _  81  _ x  _ 105   

(in which x is the fourth hour of work)


We can see from the sequence that each hours, the mailman add additional 12 letters.
(69 - 57 = 12)
(81 - 69 = 12)   . . . . proof


So, the amount of letters on the fourth hour would be:
81 letters  + 12 letters = 93 Letters

Problem solving with inequalities
anzhelika [568]

Option D:

15c ≤ 200

Solution:

Let c be the number of cases of tea bags.

Cost of each tea bag = 15 gold coins

Total gold coins Mad have = 200

<u>Set up an inequality:</u>

Cost of c tea bags = 15 × c = 15c

Mad can buy tea bags at most 200 gold coins.

(At most 200 means 200 is the greater value)

15 × c ≤ 200

15c ≤ 200

Hence option D is the correct answer.
