10.2 all you have to do is add up all the sides... hope this helps!
Answer:
a)1400 + 300x ≤ 5000
b) x ≤ 12 days
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Since the grocery store owner wants to stay within budget then, this means he would be spending at most $5,000
The word at most is represented by the inequality sign ≤ = Less than or equal to
Let x = Number of days
Hence,
Our inequality equation is
$1400 + 300× x ≤ $5000
1400 + 300x ≤ 5000
b) Solving for x
1400 + 300x ≤ 5000
300x ≤ 5000 - 1400
300x ≤ 3600
x ≤ 3600/300
x ≤ 12 days
The solution to the equation would be 21.5
Why?
If you do the equation backwards
30 - 8.5 = x
You would get 21.5
You can plug it into the first equation to check!

Answer:
Decreased by 20%.
16 lbs is 80% of 20 lbs.
Step-by-step explanation:
y × 20 = 16 × 100
20y = 1600
20y ÷ 20 = 1600 ÷ 20
y = 80
100% - 80% = 20%
