We are going to make simultaneous equations.
x will be our $3 ice cream and y will be our $5 ice cream
Equation1 ---- x + y = 50 (the sum of all the ice creams they sell)
Equation 2 ---- 3x + 5y = 180 Sum of all the $3 and $5 ice creams is $180
Since we can't solve for both variables we will put one of the variables in terms of the other.
Take x+y=50 and subtract y from both sides. (I could have done subtracted x - it did not matter). Now we have x= ₋ y +50 (negative y +50)
Now I am going to take equation 2 and replace the x with -y +50
3 (-y +50) + 5y = 180
Now I will use the distributive law on the 3 and what's in the parentheses:
-3y + 150 + 5y = 180
Now I will combine like terms (the -3y and the 5y)
2y + 150 = 180
Now subtract 150 from both sides of the equation
2y = 30
Divide both sides by 2
and get y= 15 They sold 15 ice creams that cost $5 each
Since equation 1 is x+y=50 we can replace y with 15
x + 15 = 50 Now subtract 15 from both sides x = 35
Since x represents the $3 ice creams, they sold 35 of those.
Check:
35 X 3 = $105
15 x 5 = + <u>75
</u> $180

Answer:
Draw an open circle on 3 and shade to the left.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, solve the inequality.
x - 6 < -3
x - 6 + 6 < -3 + 6
x < 3
The less than symbol (<) indicates that 3 is not part of the solution set. Therefore, the circle will be open.
Since the inequality indicates that x is less than 3, shade to the left of 3.
Hope that helps. :)
Answer:
180°
because x is the mid pf 0° and 360°
Answer:
You would do $1.75 x 1,000. That would be 1$,750. Then, you would take away that $95 because they spent buying the box of tea bags, and their total would be $1,750 - $95 = $1,655.
