The inequality below represents h, the number of hours Ellie need to work this week to earn at least $360 by the end of the mont
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 10 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequality                            12h + 240 > 360

Solve the inequality as if it was an equation

                                           12h > 360 - 240

                                           12h > 120

                                           h > 120 / 12

                                           h = 10 hours

Let's evaluate some number of hours

If h = 3                        12(3) + 240 > 360

                                  36 + 240 > 360

                                          276 > 360     Incorrect, she needs to work more

                                                                 than 3 hours

If h = 5                         12(5) + 240 > 360

                                   60 + 240 > 360

                                           300 > 360     Incorrect, she needs to work more

                                                                 than 5 hours

If h = 7                          12(7) + 240 > 360  

                                    84 + 240 > 360

                                          324 > 360      Incorrect she needs to work more

                                                                 than 7 hours

If h = 11                          12(11) + 240 > 360  

                                     132 + 240 > 360

                                              372 > 360   Correct, she needs to work at least

                                                                   10 hours.

I made some brownies and cookies to sell for a local fundraiser. The cookies sold for $0.75 each and the brownies sold for $1.25
juin [17]

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

Nastasia [14]
The first thing we must do for this case is to take into account the following variable:
 x = speed in miles per hour
 Then, by definition we have to:
 d = v * t
 Where,
 d: distance
 v: speed
 t: time
 Substituting values:
 250 = x * 5
 Answer:
 
An equation that can be used to find the speed of the train is:
 
250 = x * 5
