1 answer:

8 0

3/4 inch represents 1/8 mile, that means:

1/8 mile represented by 3/4 inch

1 mile will be : (3/4) inch ÷ (1/8)

= 3/4 × 8/1 = 6

1mile will be represented by 6 inches

So on the map it is 6 inches per mile

Mustafa, Heloise, and Gia have written more than a combined total of 222222 articles for the school newspaper. Heloise has writt

baherus [9]

Answer:

The Inequality For determining number of equation written by Mustafa for school paper is $x+\frac{1}{4}x+ \frac{3}{2}x\geq 22$ .

Mustafa has written more than 8 articles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Combined Total Number of articles = 22

Let the number of articles written by Mustafa be 'x'.

Now Given:

Heloise has written $\frac{1}{4}$ as many articles as Mustafa has.

Number of article written by Heloise = $\frac{1}{4}x$

Gia has written $\frac{3}{2}$ as many articles as Mustafa has.

Number of article written by Gia = $\frac{3}{2}x$

Now we know that;

The sum of number of articles written by Mustafa and Number of article written by Heloise and Number of article written by Gia is greater than or equal to Combined Total Number of articles.

framing in equation form we get;

$x+\frac{1}{4}x+ \frac{3}{2}x\geq 22$

Hence the Inequality For determining number of equation written by Mustafa for school paper is $x+\frac{1}{4}x+ \frac{3}{2}x\geq 22$ .

Now Solving the Inequality we get;

Taking LCM for making the denominator common we get:

$\frac{x\times 4}{4}+\frac{1\times1}{4\times1}x+ \frac{3\times2}{2\times2}x\geq 22\\\\\frac{4x}{4}+ \frac{x}{4}+\frac{6x}{4}\geq 22\\\\\frac{4x+x+6x}{4} \geq 22\\\\11x\geq 22\times4\\\\11x\geq 88\\\\x\geq \frac{88}{11} \\\\x\geq 8$

Hence Mustafa has written more than 8 articles.

Jake and amber worm at McDonald's they each earn $8 per hour jake works three more hours then amber if jake and amber made a tot

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equations: x is the amount of hours Amber worked and y is the hours Jake worked

8x + 8y = 120

y = 3 + x

Substitute the second equation into the first

8x + 8(3+x) = 120

Distribute

8x + 24 + 8x = 120

Combine like-terms

16x + 24 = 120

Subtract 24 on both sides

16x = 96

Divide 16 on both sides

x = 6 (hours Amber worked)

Plug in this x-value into on of the two equations. I will use the second

y = 3 + 6

y = 9
