Galina-37 [17]3 years ago

<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

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Edgar rolls two six-sided number cubes. What is the probability that he rolls a 2 on
frutty [35]

Answer:

The probability that he rolls a sum of 9 given the sample space is . 9/36, or 1/4.

What is the probability?

Probability determines the chances that an event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.

The probability that he rolls a sum of 9 = cubes that have a sum of 9 / total number of cubes

9/36 = 1/4

The Johnson twins were born nine years after their older sister. This year, the product of the three siblings ages is exactly 18
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: The age of the twins is 10 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the age of older sister be x

Let the age of twins sister be x-9, as they are born after 9 years.

Product of their ages be

x(x-9)(x-9)\\\\=x(x^2-18x+81)\\\\=x^3-18x^2+81x

Sum of their ages will be

x+x-9+x-9\\\\=3x-18

According to question,

1861+3x-18=x^3-18x^2+81x\\\\x^3-18x^2+81x-3x+18-1861=0\\\\x^3-18x^2+78x-1843=0\\\\x=19

So, Age of older sister will be 19 years.

Age of the twins will be

19-9=10\ years

Hence, the age of the twins is 10 years.
