grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Number of cups of fruit punch = 22 cups....

Step-by-step explanation:

Wilson made fruit punch. He used 2 quarts of orange juice.

1 quart = 4 cups

2 quarts of orange juice = 8 cups

He made 1 pint of cranberry juice.

1 pint = 2 cups

1 pint of cranberry juice = 2 cups

He used one quart more ginger ale than orange juice.

3 quarts Ginger Ale = 12 cups.

Add all the quantities to find the number of cups.

Number of cups of fruit punch = 8 cups+2 cups+12 cups

Number of cups of fruit punch = 22 cups....

When a store had Sold 2/5 of the shirts that were on display, they brought out another 30 from the stockroom. The store likes to

Inga [223]

Answer:

Part A) 3/5 is the total number of shirts remaining on display after selling 2/5

Part B) $x \geq 200$ (All real whole numbers greater than or equal to 200 shirts)

Part C) Initially on display were the amount of 200 or more shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> total number of shirts on display

we know that

The inequality that represent the situation is

$(1-\frac{2}{5})x+30 \geq 150$

$(\frac{3}{5})x+30 \geq 150$

Part A) Explain what 3/5 means in the inequality

3/5 is the total number of shirts remaining on display after selling 2/5

Part B) Solve the inequality

we have

$(\frac{3}{5})x+30 \geq 150$

Subtract 30 both sides

$(\frac{3}{5})x \geq 150-30$

$(\frac{3}{5})x \geq 120$

Multiply by 5/3 both sides

$x \geq 120(5/3)$

$x \geq 200\ shirts\ on\ display$

Part C) Explain what the solution means in the situation

1) Initially on display were the amount of 200 or more shirts

2) 2/5 were sold and 120 or more shirts were left on display.

3) The store brought out another 30 shirts from the stockroom and placed them on display, for a total of 150 shirts or more on display
