Answer:
Subtract 6,900 from 8,500 to get the highest number of tickets that can still be sold which is 1,600.
Let f be the height of the fir trees
Let p be the height of the pine trees
We know from the problem that
f + p = 21 and 4f = 24 + p
rearrange the 2nd equation to get p = 4f - 24 and substitute into the other equation
so...
f + 4f - 24 = 21
5f - 24 = 21
5f = 45
f = 9 - height of the fir tree
substitute back into the 1st equation
9 + p = 21
p = 12 - height of the pine tree
Answer:
Yes it is
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
To start, first set up your expression like this:
(5x+17)-(3x-4)
You must set up your expression like this since in subtraction, order matters and the problem asks for the difference between the first plant and the second plant, respectively, meaning you must follow in this order.
Now, simplify:
(5x+17)-(3x-4)
(5x+17)+(-3x+4)
2x+21
Therefore, the difference the two companies would be 2x+21.
13x-88 ≤ -32
there's your answer
