x+y=8 and 25x+10y=170 are the linear equations.

x+y≤8 and 25x+10y≤170 are the inequalities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Worth of coins = $1.70 = 1.70*100 = 170 cents

Number of coins = 8

1 quarter = 25 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

Let,

x represent the number of quarters

y represent the number of dimes

1. Write an equation to represent the amount of coins Karen has.

x+y = 8

2.Write an equation to represent the value of the coins Karen has.

25x+10y=170

x+y=8 and 25x+10y=170 are the linear equations.

For inequalities, the amount cannot increase number of coins and worth but it can be less, therefore,

x+y≤8

25x+10y≤170

x+y≤8 and 25x+10y≤170 are the inequalities.

vampirchik [111]

Answer: $1\frac{3}{5}$ hrs

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1st painter: $\frac{1}{2}$

2nd painter: $\frac{1}{8}$

1st + 2nd = Together

$\frac{1}{2}$ + $\frac{1}{8}$ = $\frac{1}{x}$

$\frac{1}{2}(8x)$ + $\frac{1}{8}(8x)$ = $\frac{1}{x}(8x)$

4x + x = 8

5x = 8

x = $\frac{8}{5}$

= $1\frac{3}{5}$

Mary wants to buy one large pizza, one medium pizza, and three drinks. The drinks cost $p$ dollars each, the medium pizza costs

Korolek [52]

Answer:

$30-8p$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent cost of each drink.

We have been given that the medium pizza costs two times as much as one drink, so the cost of medium pizza would be $2p$ .

We are also told that the large pizza costs three times as much as one drink, so the cost of la pizza would be $3p$ .

We have been given that Mary wants to buy one large pizza, one medium pizza, and three drinks.

Since the cost of one drink is p, so cost of 3 three drinks would be $3p$ .

The total cost of one large pizza, one medium pizza, and three drinks would be $2p+3p+3p=8p$

Mary started with $30, so amount left after all of her purchases would be 30 minus total cost of all purchases.

$30-8p$

Therefore, Mary will have $30-8p$ dollars left after making all of her purchases.
