<u>Answer:</u>

x + y ≥ 26 + 15

5x + 8y ≥ 250 (see below)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write an equation to represent the total cost to wash cars:

$5x = cost for cars

Then, write another for trucks:

$8y = cost for trucks

If the question is saying that they will wash at least 26 cars and 15 trucks, that means they could wash more. This means that we'll need an inequality:

This inequality represents that the total number of cars and trucks they wash will be at least—which means that it is equal to or greater than—than the amount given:

x + y ≥ 26 + 15

Any equation or inequality with two unknowns is not solvable, meaning we need a system of equations:

If they make at least $250, that means that we need to combine the costs of the cars and trucks to make an inequality:

5x + 8y ≥ 250

Now you have your system of equations:

x + y ≥ 26 + 15

5x + 8y ≥ 250

Nia answered 80% of the 40 questions on a test correctly. How many correct answers did she have?
Step2247 [10]

Nia answered correct answers = 80% of the 40 questions

When we remove % sign from a number, we divide that number by 100

= \frac{80}{100} of 40

=\frac{80}{100} \times 40

Cancelling the two zeroes from numerator and denominator,

= 8 \times 4

= 32.

Total correct answers answered by Nia = 32

Please show the steps I need this right now I’m taking a test8(x−4)&lt;7x−3
Olegator [25]

Answer:

x < 29

Step-by-step explanation:

8(x−4)<7x−3; distribute 8 in the parenthesis

8x - 32 < 7x - 3; subtract 7x from both sides

x - 32 < -3; add 32 to both sides

x < 29
