Answer:

At least 6 shirts should be brought to avail a total reduction of Rs 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked price of each shirt = Rs 28

Discount offered = 25%

So, 25% of marked price  28 = \frac{25}{100}  \times 28 = 7

⇒Reduction on each shirt is Rs 7

Now, total amount reduction needed = Rs 40

So, number of shirts purchased = \frac{\textrm{Total reduction needed}}{\textrm{Reduction on each shirt}}

= 40  Rs /7  Rs  =  5. 71  ≈  6

So, at least 6 shirts should be brought to avail a total reduction of Rs 40.

Since we don't know how much students there is going to be, let's assume it's x. 367x+1500=16600. 16600-1500=15100. We have to isolate x by itself so 15100/367 which equals 41.14etc And round it to 41 since there can't be a decimal of a student. Hope this helped.

Keith has $500 in a savings account at the beginning of the summer. He withdraws $25 each week for food, clothes, and movie tick
alexdok [17]

Answer:

You can put this solution on YOUR website!

the inequality is 500 - 25x >= 200

this insures that he will have at least 200 at the end of the summer.

subtract 200 from both sides of that inequality and add 25x to both sides of that inequality to get 500 - 200 >= 25x

simplify to get 300 >= 25x

divide both sides of that equation by 25 to get 300 / 25 >= x

simplify to get 12 >= x

12 >= x means x <= 12.

 

when x is smaller than or equal to 12, he will be guaranteed to have at least 200 in the account at the end of the summer.

when x = 12, what is left in the account is 500 - 25 * 12 = 200.

when x = 11, what is left in the account is 500 - 25 * 11 = 225.

when x = 13, what is left in the account is 500 - 25 * 13 = 175.

the maximum number of weeks he can withdraw money from his account is 12.
