Complete Question
Tyler went to the supermarket to buy food for a food pantry. He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack. Pasta costs $1 for a 1-pound package. Pasta sauce costs $3 for a 1.5 pound jar. Let x = the number of packages of pasta and y = the number of jars of pasta sauce. One package of pasta is the right amount to go with one jar of pasta sauce. What is the best numbers of packages of pasta and jars of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry? Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
Eight is the best numbers of packages of pasta and jars of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = the number of packages of pasta
y = the number of jars of pasta sauce.
He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack. Pasta costs $1 for a 1-pound package. Pasta sauce costs $3 for a 1.5 pound jar.
x + 1.5y ≤ 20....... Equation 1
x = 20 - 1.5y
x × $1 + y × $3 = $36
x + 3y ≤ 36..... Equation 2
20 - 1.5y + 3y = 36
-1.5y + 3y = 36 - 20
1.5y = 16
y = 16/1.5
y = 8
And x = 8
Therefore,
Eight is the best numbers of packages of pasta and jars of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry.
Answer:
Simplify
1. 20:10 = 2:1
2. 30:36 = 5:6
3. 54: 12 = 18:7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer for Number 1
The GCF of 20 and 10 is 10
Divide both by the GCF, 10:
20 ÷ 10 = 2
10 ÷ 10 = 1
The ratio 20 : 10 can be reduced t by dividing both terms by the GCF = 10
20 : 10 = 2 : 1
