To find the total of what you sold for each package, you'll need to write two equations. Know that x = paper plate packages and y = utensil packages.
First, x + y = 15 shows that there has to be fifteen packages, and 8x + 5y = 90 shows the $ made from selling a certain number of packages.
Next, you can solve by substitution, so change x + y = 15 to y = 15 - x.
To find our x, substitute the y in 8x + 5y = 90 to get
8x + 5(15 - x) = 90
Distribute: 8x + 75 - 5x = 90
Combine the X's and subtract the 75: 3x = 15
Divide the 3: x = 5
Now with our x, we can put 5 into the original equation x + y = 15 to get 5 + y = 15. Subtracting the 5, we get y = 10.
So, you have delivered 5 paper plate packages and 10 utensil packages.
The answer to this question is 2/3.
Since in this equation we are dividing 17/2 by 1/4, we can think of this as multiplying 17/2 with 4/1 (or 4).
17 4
---- X ----- = 34
2 1
Our final answer is 34 days.
Answer:
0.052 acre/min
Step-by-step explanation:
6 1/4 acres / 2 hours times the conversion factor (1 hr / 60 min) comes out to:
