Answer:1,1/2

Step-by-step explanation: First, we got to make an common denomanator, which is 24. 2 1/4 would be 2 6/24, and 3/6 would be 12/24. then, we use 2,6/24 and subtract it by 12/24, which is 1, 18/24, simplified to 1,1/2

Susie’s Sweet Shop sells chocolate boxes that contain three types of chocolate truffles: solid chocolate truffles, cream center

olganol [36]

Let us make a list of all the details we have

We are given

The cost of each solid chocolate truffle = s

The cost of each cream centre chocolate truffle = c

The cos to each chocolate truffle with nuts = n

The first type of sweet box that contains 5 each of the three types of chocolate truffle costs $41.25

That is 5s+5c+5n = 41.25 (cost of each type of truffle multiplied by their respective costs and all added together)

The second type of sweet box that contains 10 solid chocolate trufles, 5 cream centre truffles and 10 chocolate truffles with nuts cost $68.75

That is 10s+5c+10n = $68.75

The third type of sweet box that contains 24 truffles evenly divided that is 12 each of solid chocolate truffle and chocolate truffle with nuts cost $66.00

That is 12s+12n=$66.00

Hence option C is the right set of equations that will help us solve the values of each chocolate truffle.

The target temperature for a laboratory is 72° Fahrenheit. It

myrzilka [38]

The inequality |t - 72| ≤ 2 represents the target temperature for a laboratory is 72° Fahrenheit, and it can vary by up to 2° option (D) is correct.

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

It is defined as the expression in mathematics in which both sides are not equal they have mathematical signs either less than or greater than, known as inequality.

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please find the attached picture.

We have:

The target temperature for a laboratory is 72° Fahrenheit. It can vary by up to 2°.

Target temperature = 72 degree Fahrenheit

It can vary by up to 2°. (the highest limit)

The temperature in the laboratory represented by t

Now,

inequality represents this situation is:

|t - 72| ≤ 2

Thus, the inequality |t - 72| ≤ 2 represents the target temperature for a laboratory is 72° Fahrenheit, and it can vary by up to 2° option (D) is correct.
