Answer

5 ties, as the equivalent ratio would be 50:5, meaning 50 shirt to 5 ties  

Step-by-step explanation:  What should have been recognized is that if 20 shirts align to 2 ties, that means that for every ten shirts you would have 1 tie. The ratio doesn't change. That means that if you have 30 shirts you would have 3 ties, and 40 shirts you would have 4 ties. The common multiples are  10 and 1, and are originally introduced through 20 and 2. The reality is from  the standpoint of unit rate, for every 10 shirts you have 1 tie. You simply just had to multiply once understanding this.

<h2>1 way</h2>

For 20 shirts Eric has

20×2=40 ties

After shopping Eric has 50 shirts

So

20 shirts 50 shirts

40 ties x ties

\frac{20}{40}  =  \frac{50}{x} \\ x =  \frac{50 \times 40}{20}  \\ x = 100

Answer: He would have 100 ties

<h2>2 way</h2>

If he has 2 ties for 1 shirt he will have

2×20=40 ties for 20 shirts, so for 50 shirts ge would have

50×2=100 ties

Answer: He would have 100 ties

They can not, there are only 2 sides and they probably flipped it different ways. They got 'lucky'.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum amount Eric can spend on magazines is $25 less the cost of lunch, $15.

The appropriate inequality sign would be less than since he cannot spend more than $25.

Also, the amount he can spend on magazines would be what is left after paying for lunch.

So the correct inequality is 4m - 15 < 25
