To start, you want to determine the inequality. You can do this by setting the number of buying n fish to be less than or equal to her current amount of money, being as it can't go over or she wouldn't be able to afford the fish. This inequality would be written so her amount of money (20) would be greater than or equal to the cost of n fish (2.5n), which would then look as such: 20≥2.5n. To solve this inequality, just solve for n by dividing both sides by 2.5, giving you 8≥n. This would mean that Becky can afford to buy up to 8 fish.
Answer:
3 / 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can realize that both the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 9. We can divide them both by 9 to get:
3 / 4
This fraction is in simplest form.
Answer:
75 buses needed
Step-by-step explanation:
3,600 people / each bus holds 48 people = 75
P = 2L + 2w
Subtract 2L
from each side: P - 2L = 2w
Divide each side
by 2 : (P - 2L) / 2 = w
You could also write it as (P/2 - L) = w
Both answers are the same.
