Step 1

Let

x-------> represents the number of tubes of paint Catherine can buy

y------> the money to spend for a painting canvas

we know that

y> 20 ------> inequality A

y=54-8.5x ------> equation B

substitute equation B in inequality A

54-8.5x > 20

therefore

<u>the answer part a) is</u>

The inequality that best represents this scenario is 54-8.5x > 20

Step 2

Solve the inequality

54-8.5x > 20

54-20 >8.5x

34 >8.5x

34/8.5 >x

4 >x ---------> x < 4

therefore

<u>the answer Part b) is the option C</u>

less than 4

The answer is B. She is buying 4 paint tubes. 4 x 8.5 = 34. 34 - 20 = 14, which is less than 54.

Mr. Thomas drove 75 miles in May. He drove 6 times as many miles in July as he did in May. He
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

1800 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in May = 75

It is given that miles driven in July is 6 times of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in May(75 miles).

Thus

No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in July = 6 * No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in May   = 6*75 = 450 miles.

__________________________________________________

Another condition given   that miles driven in June is 4 times of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in July(450miles as calculated above).

Thus

No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in June = 4 * No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in July   = 4* 450 miles = 1800 miles.

No. of miles driven by Mr. Thomas in June is 1800 miles.
