Annie needs $30 to buy a coat. She has saved $12 and plans to work as a babysitter to earn $6 per hour. Which inequality shows t

he minimum number of hours, n, that Annie should work as a babysitter to earn enough to buy the coat?
12 + 6n ≤ 30, so n ≤ 3

12 + 6n ≥ 30, so n ≥ 3

6n ≥ 30 + 12, so n ≥ 7

6n ≤ 30 + 12, so n ≤ 7

Answer:

(B)12 + 6n ≥ 30, so n ≥ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Annie already has $12

Let n be the number of hours she needs to work

If she earns $6 per hour

Her Income in n hours = $6 X n =$6n

Total Amount Annie has = 12 + 6n

Since she needs $30 to buy a coat, her total income must not be less than $30.

Therefore:

12 + 6n\geq 30

is the inequality which shows minimum number of hours, n, that Annie should work as a babysitter to earn enough.

Next, we solve 12 + 6n\geq 30 for n.

12 + 6n\geq 30

6n\geq 30-12\\ 6n\geq 18\\

Divide both sides by 6

n\geq 3

Annie's total earnings from her initial savings, $12, and from babysitting should be equal or more than 30. Annie's total earnings from babysitting may be expressed as $6n. The inequality should be,
 
                                           12 + 6n <span>≥ 30

Solving for x,
                                             6n </span><span>≥ 30 - 12
</span><span>
                                        6n </span>≥ 18    ;     n <span>≥ 3
</span><span>
Thus, the answer is the second among the choices.

The school that molly goes to is selling tickets to a choral performance. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 6 sen

The cost of a senior citizen ticket is $15 and the cost of a student ticket is $12.

How did I get this?
We know that 6 citizen tickets and 7 student stickers sold for $174 the first day. And 10 citizen tickets and 14 student tickets sold for $318 the second day.

1. create two equations out of this: C= citizen cost per ticket and S = student cost per ticket.

  6C + 7S = $174
10C + 14S = $318

2. Use process of elimination. Multiply the first equation by 2 because we want two variables to cancel out.

-12C - 14S = -$348
10C + 14S = $318
Combine like terms.

-2C = $30
Divide by -2 on both sides. The left side cancels out.

C = $30/-2
C = -$15 (In this case the negative doesn't matter)

C = $15 (cost of senior citizen ticket)

Plug the value of C into any of the two equations so we can get the value of S.

6($15) + 7S = $174
Distribute the 6 into the parenthesis.

$90 + 7S = $174
Subtract both sides by $90 and the left side will cancel out.

7S = $84
Divide both sides by 7.
S = $12

Student ticket: $12
Senior citizen ticket: $15

The first 5 terms of a sequence are shown below:
nirvana33 [79]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the formula for the nth term ,

First , find the common difference or common ratio.

Common difference =

T_2-T_1 \\  - 2 - 3 \\  =  - 5

Common ratio =

T_2/T_1 \\  \frac{ - 2}{3}

The common difference applies to the other given numbers for example :

T_3- T_2  =  - 7 - ( - 2) \\  =  - 7 + 2 =  - 5

this proves that it is an arithmetic sequence and the given formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

T_n =a(n-1)d

Where n = no of terms

a= first term

d= common difference

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

63 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

I AM NOT SURE THIS IS CORRECT. I WILL EXPLAIN MY REASONING THOUGH.

Take 210 (pages) and multiply that by 30% or 0.3 that will give you 63. This means that 30% of the book is 63 pages
