Answer:

The greatest number of t-shirts that the Sports Committee can purchase is 232.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student council raised $2,790 during its annual fundraiser.

Each t-shirt costs $12.

The total cost of buying x t-shirts is given by:

T(x) = 12x

What is the greatest number of t-shirts the Sports Committee can purchase?

The total cost has to be lesser, or equal, to 2790. So

T(x) \leq 2790

12x \leq 2790

x \leq \frac{2790}{12}

x \leq 232.5

Since you cant buy half a shirt.

The greatest number of t-shirts that the Sports Committee can purchase is 232.

Which method correctly solves the equation using the multiplication property of equality and the reciprocal of One-third? One-th
Airida [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation \frac{1}{3}(x+9) = -12

Step 1;

Expand the bracket at the right hand side of the equation to have:

\frac{1}{3}x +\frac{1}{3}(9) = -12\\\frac{1}{3}x+3=-12\\subtracting\ 3\ from\ both\ sides\\\frac{1}{3}x+3-3=-12-3\\\frac{1}{3}x=-15\\

Taking the reciprocal of both sides:

\frac{3}{x} = \frac{-1}{15} \\ cross\ multiplying\\-x =45\\x=-45

During a field trip, 60 students are put into equal-sized groups. Describe two ways to interpret 60 ÷ 5 in this problem *
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

    x=12 groups

This will give 5 Students each in 12 different equally sized groups

    x'=5groups

This also shows that students can grouped in equal groups of 12 in 5 places

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

60 children in equal sized groups

Generally interpreting 60\div 5 can be mathematically represented as

a)

    x=\frac{60}{5}

    x=12 groups

This will give 5 Students each in 12 different equally sized groups

b)

    x'=\frac{60}{12}

    x'=5groups

This also shows that students can grouped in equal groups of 12 in 5 places

Shkiper50 [21]
I don't know what the "lowest y-intercept means" so if you can reiterate and clarify I'd appreciate it, but if you understand what you're looking for then I assume that a graph would be helpful. An online useful graphing site I like is desmos. Hope I helped.
