Answer: x ≥ 6
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
12 less <u>than</u> 5 times a number ≥ 6 more <u>than</u> twice the number
5x - 12 ≥ 2x + 6
Note: the word "than" switches the order of the terms.
5x - 12 ≥ 2x + 6
<u>-2x +12</u> <u>-2x +12 </u>
3x ≥ 18
<u>÷3 </u> <u> ÷3 </u>
x ≥ 6
Graph: 6 -----------→ the dot is closed (filled in) since it is "equal to"
By order of operation
5+1x10
5+10
15
By normal solving
5+1x10
6x10
60
Convert 3/4 into decimal form = 0.75
0.75 x 7 = 5.25
Convert 5.25 into a fraction = 5 1/4
In conclusion, 7 trails were conducted.
Hope this helps!:D
Add both the equations together to eliminate x
x+5y=8
-x+2y=-1
7y=7
y=1
Now fill in y into the original equation
x+5(1)=8
x+5=8
x=3
Now you can check by filling x and y into the second equation.
-(3)+2(1)=-1
-3+2=-1
-1=-1
So your answer will be (3, 1)

Figure the fraction of box tops each class collected, then multiply the prize money by that fraction.
Total box tops = 3760 +2301 +1855 = 7916
Mr Coronado's class's fraction: 3760/7916 × $600 = $284.99
Mrs De Souza's class's fraction: 2301/7916 × $600 = $174.41
Mr Nost's class's fraction: 1855/7916 × $600 = $140.60
