Answer:
61 bags of lettuce
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's create two equations representing the cost of bags of lettuce:
Val's Veggies: 250 + 1.50x = V
Sally's Salads: 100 + 4.00x = S
If you buy 60 bags of lettuce from either store, the answers will be equivalent:
If x = 60
250 + 1.50x = V
250 + 90 = V
340 = V
100 + 4.00x = S
100 + 240 = S
340 = S
Now that both equations are equivalent, all we need to do to tip the balance and make Val's Veggies cheaper is purchase one more bag of lettuce:
x = 61
250 + 1.50x = V
250 + 91.50 = V
341.50 = V
100 + 4.00x = S
100 + 244 = S
344 = S
Since V represents the price of a bag of lettuce at Val's Veggies and V is now less than S (Sally's Salads), Val's Veggies is now the cheaper option.
Therefore, 61 bags of lettuce must be purchased in order for Val's Veggies to be the cheaper option.
The answer to this would be Point H because, you have to look in between points FB, which gives you the choices of G, H, L, the most logical answer for this would be point H because its in the middle of points FB. Hope my answer helps
2x + y = 10
5x - y = 18
7x = 28
x = 4
2(4) + y = 10
8 + y = 10
y = 2
(4,2)
Form the ratio 560/2800 and then mult. the result by 100%:
560
--------- * 100% = 20%
2800
