In a recent year a baseball team paid six times as much to their ace pitcher as they paid to their shortstop. If they paid $56 m
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

  • pitcher: $48 million
  • shortstop: $8 million

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of salaries can be written as ...

   short : pitcher = 1 : 6

Then the fraction of the total that the shortstop received is ...

  short : total = 1 : (1+6) = 1 : 7

The shortstop's salary was (1/7)×($56 million) = $8 million.

The pitcher's salary was 6 times that, so 6×($8 million) = $48 million.

The pitcher's salary was $48 million; the shortstop's, $8 million.

In a race, Car #1 went an average of 165 miles per hour for x hours before dropping out. Car #2 went an average of 175 miles per
Akimi4 [234]
When you think about it. It's actually quite easy.
The number are the amount of miles, and the variables are the amount of hours. So we would just have to multiply them. So, by putting the number together we would be able to multiply them once we have the numbers for the variables. Since we dont have them, we can just make the inequality. It says that car 1 traveled at LEAST that of car 2. Showing that car 1 may have traveled farther. SOOOOO........ the inequality should look like this:

165x <span>≥ 175y</span>
