Use ratio and proportion:  


$29.50 is to 250 ft. as how much is to 40 ft.  

29.5 / 250 = x / 40  

x = 40(29.5) / 250  

x = 1180 / 250  

x = 4.72  

40 ft. would cost $4.72

Here's how you solve it!

250/2950 = 40/x

x(250/2950) = (40/x)x

250x/2950 = 40

2950(250x/2950) = (40)2950

250x = 118,000

250x/250 = 118,00/250

x = 472

The cost of 40 ft of cable is 472.


Hope this helps! <3

Graph this compound inequality 2.5 is equal to or less than x is equal to or less than 4.5
Oxana [17]

Graph this compound inequality 2.5 is equal to or less than x is equal to or less than 4.5

2.5 <= x < = 4.5

We graph this inequality using number line.

Here x lies between 2.5  and 4.5

While graphing, we start with closed circle at 2.5 because we have equal symbol .

Then shade till 4.5. Use closed circle at 4.5.

The graph is attached below.
