Answer:

1. Typed question: 175 green eggs

2. Attached: 22 tables

Step-by-step explanation:

For the question you typed down, it is a ratio and proportion problem. You need to solve for the ratio proportional to the first ratio given.

4 blue eggs are filled for every 7 green. This means that the ratio between blue eggs and green eggs is 4:7.

Now yo need to figure out a ratio proportional to 4:7 if 100 blue eggs were filled. Below is how this is set up:

\dfrac{4\;blue\;eggs}{7\;green\;eggs} = \dfrac{100\;blue\;eggs}{x\;green\;eggs}

Now let's solve for x:

\dfrac{4\;blue\;eggs}{7\;green\;eggs} = \dfrac{100\;blue\;eggs}{x\;green\;eggs}\\\\or\\\\\dfrac{4}{7}=\dfrac{100}{x}\\\\Cross-multiply\\\\4x = (7)(100)\\\\4x = 700\\\\Divide\;both\;sides\;by\;4\\\\\dfrac{4x}{4}=\dfrac{700}{4}\\\\x=175

For your attached problem:

You have a total of 175 people, you need to figure out how many round tables you need if here are 8 chairs for each table You just need to divide the number of people by the number of chairs per table.

175 ÷ 8 = 21.9 tables

Now since you cannot have half a table, you round up to the nearest whole number. (we round up because you need to make sure that all of them are seated)

21.9 ≅ 22 tables.

lozanna [386]
Okay so the equation. Lets say e is explorers and v is flying vs and m = money.

e + v > or = 30.

80e + 5v =m.
 
e < or = 20\
v < or = 20.
Okay, the most money he could make would be if he made 20 explorers at 80 dollars and 10 vs at 5 dollars.
Total money...
1600 + 50 = 1650.
So he could make $1650.
