Complete question :
At Alan's auto shop, it takes him 9 minutes to do an oil change and 12 minutes to do a tire change. Let x be the number of oil changes he does. Let y be the number of tire changes he does. Using the values and variables given, write an inequality describing how many oil changes and tire changes Alan can do in less than an hour ( minutes).
Answer:
9x + 12y < 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Time taken for oil change = 9 minutes
Time taken for tire change = 12 minutes
x = number of oil changes ; y = number of tire changes
Total hours = 1 hour = 60 minutes
Number of oil and Tyre changes possible in less than an hour
(Number of oil changes * time taken) + (number of tire changes * time taken) less than 60 minutes
9x + 12y < 120
(a)The amount of soil he had last week
(b) p/2+4=28
(c) 12 because
(d) 12
9 times 5 equals 45 so yes
The new parking lot must hold twice as many cars as the previous parking lot. The previous parking lot could hold 56 cars. So this means the new parking lot must hold 2 x 56 = 112 cars
Let y represent the number of cars in each row, and x be the number of total rows in the parking lot. Since the number of cars in each row must be 6 less than the number of rows, we can write the equation as:
y = x - 6 (1)
The product of cars in each row and the number of rows will give the total number of cars. So we can write the equation as:
xy = 112 (2)
Using the above two equations, the civil engineer can find the number of rows he should include in the new parking lot.
Using the value of y from equation 1 to 2, we get:
x(x - 6) = 112 (3)
This equation is only in terms of x, i.e. the number of rows and can be directly solved to find the number of rows that must in new parking lot.
