104 is the answer to your problem
Answer: A. Wed to Fri
We have a bunch of natural numbers and we're told a pair is in the ratio 2:5.
For natural numbers to have this ratio, the left number will be a multiple of two and the right number will be a multiple of five.
Our only option for a multiple of 5 is 15, Friday. So we have
2:5 = x:15
and x = 15*2/5 = 6
which was Wednesday's number. So we get Wed:Fri=6:15=2:5.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to define a couple of variables. Let s = the cost of 1 squash and z = the cost of 1 zucchini.
Now lets translate the words into algebra:
"The cost of 5 squash and 2 zucchini is $1.32" ===> 5s + 2z = 1.32
"Three squash and 1 zucchini cost $0.75" ===> 3s + z = 0.75
There are several ways to solve systems of equations. Let's use substitution. We can find what z equals in terms of s by manipulating the second equation:
3s + z = 0.75
-3s -3s
------------ -------------
z = -3s +0.75
Now lets substitute (-3s + 0.75) into the first equation for z, then solve for s:
5s + 2(-3s + 0.75) = 1.32
Can you handle it from here?
(Hint: Once you have solved for s, you can substitute that value back into either of the equations and solve for z.)
The answer is no solution.

Answer is No solution
Answer:
6.84 ≤ x ≤ 37.39
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
-----> equation A
we know that
The company wants to keep its profits at or above $225,000,
so
-----> inequality B
Remember that P(x) is in thousands of dollars
Solve the system by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is the interval [6.78,39.22]
see the attached figure
therefore
A reasonable constraint for the model is
6.84 ≤ x ≤ 37.39
