Answer:

Small candies =9

Extra large candies =12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let small candies =x

Extra large candies =y

the number of candies is at least 20.

x+y\geq20

Cost of 1 small candy =\$4

Cost of 1 extra large candy =\$12

but she has only \$180 to spend

4x+12y\leq180

Solve for

x+y=20.......(1)\\4x+12y=180.....(2)\\eqn(2)-eqn(1)\times4\\8y=100\\y=\frac{100}{8} \\y=\frac{25}{8} \\from\ eqn(1)\\x+\frac{25}{2}=20\\ x=20-\frac{25}{2} \\x=\frac{15}{2}

Since number of candies should be integer.

let x=7,y=13

total spend 4\times7+12\times13=184 which is more than \$180, so this combination is not possible.

let\ x=8,y=12\\8\times4+12\times12=176

She has \$4 more so she can buy 1 more small candy.

Hence  small candy =9

extra large candy =12

A man earned x pesos in 10 days and spent y pesos during each of those days. Write an expression to determine how many pesos he
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:  \dfrac{x}{10}-y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A man earned x pesos in 10 days and spent y pesos during each of those days.

i.e. Total earning in 10 days = x

Earning per day =\dfrac{x}{10}    [By unitary method]    (1)

Money spent per day =y      (2)

We know that

\text{Savings = Money earned - Money spent}

i.e. Subtract (2) from (1), we get

\text{Savings = }\dfrac{x}{10}-y

Hence, the expression to determine how many pesos he saved per day will be:-

\dfrac{x}{10}-y

PLEASEE HEEELPPPP!!!
koban [17]
Practice proportionality. A 50 difference between 100 and 150 is less relevant than 50 in 25 and 75. Its like you have 1 billion dollars and i give you 10 dollars. Its worthless right? What if you have 20 dollars and i give you again 10 dollars, its half of what you have. See the difference? Same number but different value.
