<em><u>Lee sold 40 magazines</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation Model:

Let m be the number of magazines Lee sold.

150%-130%=20%, so if 0.2m=8 then m=40

Let me show another way: In the image above 20% is equal to 8 so if we use 8 and 20% and try to reach our way up to 100% (How much Lee sold in total) then we will get our answer.

20%=8

40%=16

60%=24

80%=32

100%=40

Therefore Lee sold 40 magazines.

Hope that makes sense! If you have any more questions or need further clarification then please comment down below or message me! Good luck!

1 Javier has at most $15.00 to spend today. He buys a bag of pretzels and a bottle of juice for $2.59. If gasoline at this store
Art [367]

Answer:

Javier can buy <em>at maximum</em> about 3.7 gallons of oil.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g represent the amount of gasoline in galloons.

We know that Javier has at most $15.00 to spend. In other words, the total cost after buying the snacks and gasoline must be <em>less than or equal to </em>15.

He already bought a snack and a drink for a total of $2.59.

And each gallon of gasoline costs $3.39.

So, we can write the following inequality:

2.59+3.39g\leq 15.00

To find how many galloons of gasoline Javier can buy, we will need to solve for g.

So, subtract 2.59 from both sides. This yields:

3.39g\leq12.41

Divide both sides by 3.39:

g\leq3.66

So, Javier can buy <em>at maximum</em> about 3.7 gallons of oil.

And we're done!

A park ranger would like to clear more than 10 mi of trail. So far, he has cleared 2 mi. From now on, he can clear 3/4 mi of tra
blondinia [14]

Answer: The answer is (b) The ranger will need to clear trail for more than 10 2/3 additional hours.


Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a park ranger would like to clear more than 10 mi of trail. Till now, he has cleared 2 mi. From now on, he can clear 3/4 mi of trail each hour.

Since 2 mi of the trail has already been cleared, so the trail that is left to be cleared = 10 - 2 = 8 mi.

Let, the park ranger will work for 'x' more hours. So, we have

\dfrac{3}{4}\times x=8\\\\\Rightarrow 3x=32\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{32}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow x=10\dfrac{2}{3}.

Thus, the park ranger will need to work for 10 2/3 more hours.

Hence, the correct option is (b) The ranger will need to clear trail for more than 10 2/3 additional hours.
