The net amount they raise is the amount they receive minus what they pay in expenses.
They receive:
$10,000 fixed amount in donations
$55 per person
They pay:
$15 per person
If there are x number of entries, they receive 55x from the entries.
Also, they pay 15x for the entries.
The net amount they raise is amount they receive min us amount they pay:
55x + 10,000 - 15x
which simplifies to
40x + 10,0000
They want to raise at least $55,000.
At least $55,000 means $55,000 or more.
They want to raise an amount greater than or equal to $55,000.
Now we write the inequality:
40x + 10,000 >= 55,000
Now we solve the inequality for x, the number of entries.
40x >= 45,000
x >= 1125
They must have 1125 or more race entries to raise $55,000.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price for children and adults package be represented with x and y respectively.
For the first week the sum of the package will be as follows:
3x+8y = 126
For the two weeks after:
6x+4y= 108
So, we will be having two equations
3x+8y = 126..... (1)
6x+4y= 108.......(2)
These are simultaneous equations
From equation 1
3x+8y = 126
3x = 126-8y
X = 126-8y/3 ............. (3)
Put equation 3 into 2
6 ( 126-8y)/3 +4y = 108
756-48y/3 +4y = 108
756-48y+12y/3 = 108
Cross multiplying
756-48y+12y= 108×3
756-48y+ 12y = 324
Collecting like terms
756-324 = 48y-12y
432= 36y
Divide both sides by 36
432/36 = 36y/36
y= 12
Substituting y into equation 1
3x+8= 126
3x+96=126
3x= 126-96
3x= 30
Divide both sides by 3
3x/3 = 30/3
x = 10
Hence for each of the packages for children and adults. It will be 10 and 12 respectively.
Answer:
5x +y = 34
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a point and slope are given, it is convenient to start with point-slope form, then rearrange the equation to put it into standard form.
For slope m through point (h, k), the point-slope form of the equation of a line is usually written ...
y -k = m(x -h)
For m=-5 and (h, k) = (6, 4), the equation is ...
y -4 = -5(x -6)
y -4 = -5x +30 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
__
Standard form looks like ...
ax + by = c
where a > 0 and GCD(a, b, c) = 1. Here's how we can get there.
5x +y -4 = 30 . . . . . . add 5x
5x +y = 34 . . . . . . . . . add 4 to get standard form.

Answer:
supplementary angles are two angles that when add equal 180 degrees.
The supplement of an angle is 180 - n.
Step-by-step explanation:
n = 17(180 - n)
n = 3060 - 17n
n + 17n = 3060
18n = 3060
n = 3060/18
n = 170
so the unknown angle (n) = 170 degrees and its supplement = (180 - 170 = 10)......= 10 degrees.
