Answer:

x ≥ 5

y ≥ 10

3x + 2.3y ≥ 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets the number of men's shoes he sells be x and women's shoes be y.

For each men's shoes , he gets a commission of $3 and for each women's shoe, he gets a commission of $2.30 .

He needs to sell atleast 10 women's shoes and 5 men's shoes.

Also he needs to make atleast $60 per week.

x ≥ 5

y ≥ 10

3x + 2.3y ≥ 60

These are are the 3 required inequalities.

Now we will see an example.

If he sells 20 womens shoes and 10 mens shoes , he will meet the requirements.

He will make a total profit = 2.3\times 20 + 3\times 10 =$76

In the diagram below of triangle PQR, S is the midpoint of PR and T is the
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

ST = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

A segment joining the midpoints of 2 sides of a triangle is half the length of the third side.

ST = \frac{1}{2} PQ substitute values

- 32 + 9x = \frac{1}{2} (- 5x + 28) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction

- 64 + 18x = - 5x + 28 (add 5x to both sides )

- 64 + 23x = 28 ( add 64 to both sides )

23x = 92 ( divide both sides by 23 )

x = 4

Then

ST = - 32 + 9x = - 32 + 9(4) = - 32 + 36 = 4

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

<h2>4(5x + 6)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

5(6x+4)-2(5x-2)\qquad\text{use distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\=(5)(6x)+(5)(4)+(-2)(5x)+(-2)(-2)\\\\=30x+20-10x+4\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=(30x-10x)+(20+4)\\\\=20x+24

20x=4\cdot5x\\\\24=4\cdot6\\\\20x+24=4(5x+6)
