Question:
A grocery store has 120 bottles of spring water in stock. The store orders bottles of spring water in cases of 24. The store wants to order enough cases of spring water so it has more than 500 bottles in stock. Which inequality best models this situation?
A. 24x + 120 > 500
B. 24x - 120 > 500
C. 24x + 500 > 120
D. 24(x+120) > 500
Answer:
Option A. 24x + 120 > 500 is the inequality that best models this situation.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Number of bottles of spring water in the stock = 120
Each case of the spring water bottles contains 24 bottles
The store wants to order enough cases of spring water so that it has over 500 bottles in stock.
So there are already 120 bottles in stock .
The store will order
24x +120 > 500
where x is the number of spring water bottle cases
Divide both sides by -3, and replace with . Then
Factorize the quadratic in to get
which in turn means
But for all real , so we can ignore the first solution. This leaves us with
If we allow for any complex solution, then we can continue with the solution we ignored:
Answer:
m < amc = 54°
Step-by-step explanation:
< amb and < bmc are complementary angles whose sum equals 90°.
Therefore, to find the value of 2x°, we must first solve for x.
We can establish the following equality statement:
< amb + < bmc = < amc
< 2x° + (x + 9)° = 90°
Combine like terms:
2x° + x° + 9° = 90°
3x° + 9° = 90°
Subtract 9 from both sides:
3x° + 9° - 9° = 90° - 9°
3x = 81°
Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x:
3x/3 = 81°/3
x = 27°.
Since x = 27°, substitute its value into 2x° to find m < amc:
2x° = 2(27°) = 54°
Therefore, m < amc = 54°
