The system of inequalities is: 
and 
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Let 
be the amount of live bait and 
be the amount of natural bait.
As John would like to get at least 3 pounds of live bait, so the first inequality will be:
Given that, price of live bait is $12 per pound and natural bait is $7 per pound. Also, he only has a budget of $63. That means, he can spend maximum $63
So, the cost for buying pound of live bait 
and the cost for buying pound of natural bait 
Thus, the second inequality will be:
Answer:
A. 1:8
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that several students were asked to name the kinds of animals they saw in the past week at the park.
Dogs: 8
Cat: 2
Fish: 4
Lizard: 2
We are asked to find the ratio that compares the number of cats seen to the total number of animals seen.
Let us find total number of animal by adding each type of animals as:
We can see that the students saw 2 cats, so ratio of cats to total animals would be 
.
Dividing 2 and 16 by 2, we will get:
Therefore, the ratio 1:8 compares the number of cats seen to the total number of animals seen and option A is the correct choice.
Answer:
N=8
Step-by-step explanation:
6N=48
Divide by 6 both sides
6N/6=48/6
N=8
Answer:
38 women
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 9 (1 point)
In the middle school PTA there is a total of 47 men and women. The number of women the PTA is 2 more than four times the number of men. How many women are in the
PTA?
Let the number of men = x
Let the number of women = y
x + y = 47
y = 2 + 4x
We substitute
x + 2 + 4x = 47
Collect like terms
5x = 47 - 2
5x = 45
x = 45/5 = 9
y = 2 + 4x
y = 2 + 4 × 9
y = 2 + 36
y = 38
Therefore, the number of women = y = 38 women
