Percent means parts ot of 100
10%=10/100=1/10
'of' means mutily
10% of what=14
1/10 times what=14
mutiply both sides by 10
what=140
the number is 140
Ok so I assume
28 and decreased by 12.5%
percent means partst out of 100 so
12.5%=12.5/100=0.125
first find 12.5% of 28 then subtract
0.125 times 28=3.5
decrease
28-3.5=24.5
answer is 24.5
Well she can only buy five times a week. So would the inequality be something like 5 is less then or equal to 10. Sorry if I’m wrong
Work the information to set inequalities that represent each condition or restriction.
2) Name the
variables.
c: number of color copies
b: number of black-and-white copies
3)
Model each restriction:
i) <span>It
takes 3 minutes to print a color copy and 1 minute to print a
black-and-white copy.
</span><span>
</span><span>
3c + b</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>ii) He needs to print
at least 6 copies ⇒
c + b ≥ 6</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>iv) And must have
the copies completed in
no more than 12 minutes ⇒</span>
3c + b ≤ 12<span />
4) Additional restrictions are
c ≥ 0, and
b ≥ 0 (i.e.
only positive values for the number of each kind of copies are acceptable)
5) This is how you
graph that:
i) 3c + b ≤ 12: draw the line 3c + b = 12 and shade the region up and to the right of the line.
ii) c + b ≥ 6: draw the line c + b = 6 and shade the region down and to the left of the line.
iii) since c ≥ 0 and b ≥ 0, the region is in the
first quadrant.
iv) The final region is the
intersection of the above mentioned shaded regions.v) You can see such graph in the attached figure.
