Step-by-step explanation:
Nicole starts with the budget:
$395
Now, she only expects to pay half the deposit;
$72 ÷ 2 = $36
Subtract this from the budget:
$395 - $36 = $359
Divide by cost per hour:
$359 ÷ $60 = 5.983333... (3 repeating)
This means, Nicole can rent a <em>maximum</em><em> </em>of 5 hours with her budget. The inequality would be
Answer:(a=5,b=3)
7a-3b = 26--------(1)
a + 2b =11---------(2)
on mutlplying by7 in eq 2
= 7a+14b=77-------(3)
from eq(1) and (3) (on substracting)
7a+14b=77
7a-3b=26
________
=-17b=51
b=51/17
b=3
on putting value of b in eq 1
7a-3b = 26
=7a-9=26
7a=35
a=5

Answer:
1.25 gallons of alcohol
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of alcohol to add to the mix. Then the total amount of alcohol in the mix is ...
0.15×20 + x = 0.20×(20 +x)
3 +x = 4 + 0.2x . . . . simplify
0.8x = 1 . . . . . . . . . . add -3-0.2x
x = 1/0.8 = 1.25 . . . . divide by 0.8
1.25 gallons of alcohol should be added to make 21.25 gallons of 20% alcohol.
