Question:
A grocery store has 120 bottles of spring water in stock. The store orders bottles of spring water in cases of 24. The store wants to order enough cases of spring water so it has more than 500 bottles in stock. Which inequality best models this situation?
A. 24x + 120 > 500
B. 24x - 120 > 500
C. 24x + 500 > 120
D. 24(x+120) > 500
Answer:
Option A. 24x + 120 > 500 is the inequality that best models this situation.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Number of bottles of spring water in the stock = 120
Each case of the spring water bottles contains 24 bottles
The store wants to order enough cases of spring water so that it has over 500 bottles in stock.
So there are already 120 bottles in stock .
The store will order
24x +120 > 500
where x is the number of spring water bottle cases
Depending on how flexibly you interpret "about 20 times larger" to mean, the answers are B and D.
Check the ratios of the larger number to the smaller number:
A: (2.01 x 10^7)/(4.25 x 10^6) = 2.01/4.25 x 10^1 = 20.1/4.25 = 4.729
B: (8.21 x 10^-3)/(4.13 x 10^-4) = 8.21/4.13 x 10^1 = 82.1/4.13 = 19.879
C: (4.91 x 10^6)/(5.09 x 10^3) = 4.91/5.09 x 10^3 = 4910/5.09 = 964.637
D: (5.97 x 10^4)/(3.12 x 10^3) = 5.97/3.12 x 10^1 = 59.7/3.12 = 19.135
Answer:
5.209 or A
Step-by-step explanation
5^x-4=7
reserve 4
log sides
x-4 log5 and log7
x-4=log7/log5
+4 or number of your equation
x=log5/log7 +4
use calculator
get answer
5.209
