They are both the same because 1/4 has a quarter from a 4th and the 25/100 is the same just like a quarter is 25 cents and 100 cents is a dollar as 4 quarters is a dollar

Amy wants to sell at most 25 cookies and at least 10 sprites

Inga [223]

Answer:

$x\leq 25\\y\geq 10\\.50x + y\geq 30$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Amy wants to sell at most 25 cookies ,

Let number of cookies be ' $x$ ' , then $x$ should be less than or equal to 25

Which is represented by $x\leq 25$ ,

Further,

Let number of sprites be ' $y$ ', then ' $y$ ' should be greater than or equal to 10

Which is represented by $y\geq 10$

Also,

Given,

she profits $.50 on every cookie

and $1.00 on every sprite.

So total profit on selling cookies would be

= Profit on each cookie times the number of cookies

= $.50\times x$

= $.5x$

Similarly, total profit on selling sprites would be

=profit on each sprite times the number of sprites

= $1.00\times y$

= $y$

Now, combining these two should be greater than or equal to $30

representing this through an equation,

$.50x+y\geq 30$

Thus the sysytem of equations is given as:

$x\leq 25\\y\geq 10\\.50x + y\geq 30$

5 more than the quotient of a number and 8 is 42

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

<u>The number is 296.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call "x" to the number we are looking for.

Now, the problem states that "5 more than the quotient of a number and 8 is 42". This means that this number is being divided by 8, it's also being additioned 5 and the final result is 42. Therefore, the expression of this operations on this number is the following:

$\frac{x}{8}+5=42$ . Let's solve the equation to find x.
