Answer:
8w² < 4w(150-w)
Step-by-step explanation:
Square area of living : w · w = w²
Money spent : 8 · w²
Square area of artichokes : (150 - w) · w
Money earned : 4 · w · (150 - w)
Julia manages to save some money every week. That means that the money earned is bigger than the money spent ( the money spent is less than the money earned)
8 · w² < 4 · w · (150 - w)
One possible system is
1x + 3y = 4
2x + 6y = 8
Note how 2 is twice as large as 1, 6 is twice as large as 3, and 8 is twice as large as 4.
In other words, the second equation is the result of multiplying both sides of the first equation by 2.
1x+3y = 4
2*(1x+3y) = 2*4
2x+6y = 8
Effectively the two equations in bold are the same which produces the same line. The two lines overlap perfectly to intersect infinitely many times. An intersection is a solution.
Image a right triangle with two points at these two locations and the hypothenuse as the distance between them.
Find the length straight down from the first point to the second: 10 units
Find the length to the right from the first point to the second: 10 units
Use the Pythagorean theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
10^2 + 10^2 = 200
√200 = 10√2 = 14.14 units
The answer is: 30 skiers were participating in the ski trip.
Method:
$50S = $1,850 - $350 = $1,500
S = 1,500/50 = 30
Therefore, 30 skiers went on the trip
