Answer:

162 caps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of caps.

We have been given that cost of one cap is $6, so cost of x caps will be equal to 6x.

We are also told that the company charges an amount of $25 for shipping, so total cost of buying x caps will be equal to the cost of x caps plus shipping charges (6x+25).

Since Laura has a budget of $1,000, so cost of x caps will be less than or equal to 1,000. We can represent this information in an equation as:

6x+25\leq 1,000

Now let us solve for x.

6x+25-25\leq 1,000-25

6x\leq 975

Let us divide both sides of our inequality by 6.

\frac{6x}{6}\leq \frac{975}{6}

x\leq 162.5

Since we can not buy 0.5 of a cap, so the greatest number of caps Laura can buy is 162 caps.

$1000 -$25 = $975
975 / 6 = 162.5

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

4:18 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

An airport offers 2 shuttles that run on different schedules.If both shuttles leave the airport at 4:00 p.m.,at what time will they next leave theairport together.

Shuttle A leaves every 6 minutes

Shuttle B leaves every 9 minutes

Solution

To solve for when next both shuttles will leave the airport together, find the least common multiples of 6 minutes and 9 minutes

Shuttle A (every 6 minutes) = 6, 12, 18, 24

Shuttle B (every 9 minutes) = 9, 18, 27, 36

The least common multiples of 6 minutes and 9 minutes is 18 minutes

4:00 pm + 18 minutes

= 4:18 pm

The next time both shuttles will leave theairport together is 4:18 pm of the same day
