x has to be greater or equal to 16,000
x ≥ 16,000
The answer is D, because 1/2 of a bucket does 1/4 of a wall, so 1/2 multiplied by 4 is equal to 2.
L = pounds of lollipop
c = pounds of caramel candies
0.95l + 1.10c = 30 ($0.95/lb & $1.10/lb)
l + c = 30 (mixture sells for $1/lb)
c = 30 - l
0.95l + 1.10(30 - l) = 30 (Substitution)
0.95l + 33 - 1.10l = 30
-0.15l = -3 (move terms)
l = 20lbs
Hope this helps.
<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is b = -a.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We know that a number b is located the same distance from 0 as another number, a, but in the opposite direction.
So, The equation will be b = -a which is the same as writing b = -1 * a.
Here, the negative sign with the 'a' will change it from positive to negative, or vice versa.
Recall how,
negative times positive is negative; and
negative times negative is positive.
