Given:
Jeffery babysits for 4 dollars per hour and works as a math tutor for 7 dollars per hour.
He is only allowed to work 13 hours total per week.
He wants to make at least 65 dollars.
To find:
The system of inequalities to represent this situation.
Solution:
Let x be the number of hours he babysits per week and y be the number of hours h works as a math tutor.
He is only allowed to work 13 hours total per week. It means sum of x and y must be less than or equal to 13.
He wants to make at least 65 dollars. It means total earnings must be greater than or equal to 65.
Number of hours can not be negative.
.
Therefore, the required system of inequalities contains some equations, 
and 
.
Answer: 37 kilograms of walnuts should be mixed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of kilograms of peanuts needed to make the mixture.
Let y represent the number of kilograms of walnut needed to make the mixture.
The mixture to be made is 100 kg. It means that
x + y = 100
The worth of the mixture is $3.24 per kilogram. It means that the total worth of the mixture is
3.24 × 100 = $324
peanuts cost $2.50 per kilogram and walnuts cost $4.50 per kilogram. It means that
2.5x + 4.5y = 324- - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 100 - y into equation 1, it becomes
2.5(100 - y) + 4.5y = 324
250 - 2.5y + 4.5y = 324
- 2.5y + 4.5y = 324 - 250
2y = 74
y = 74/2 = 37
x = 100 - y = 100 - 37
x = 63
composite, When a number has more than two factors it is called a composite number.
Answer:
12 years
Step-by-step explanation:
8 feet = 96 inches
10 feet = 120 inches
96 + 6t = 120 + 4t
2t = 24
t = 12
