Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A represent number of adult t-shirts and C represent number of child t-shirts.
We have been given that adults t-shirt are $5 child t-shirt are $2.50, so cost of A adult t-shirts would be 
and cost of C child t-shirts would be 
.
We have been given that Jerome need at least 200 adults t-shirt. This means the number of adult t-shirts should be greater than on equal to 200.
We can represent this information in an inequality as:
We are also told that Jerome will spend no more than $1500 on t-shirt. This means that cost of A adult t-shirts and C child t-shirts should be less than or equal to 1500.
We can represent this information in an inequality as:
Therefore, our required system of inequalities would be:
Answer:
10 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
25 is to 5 as x is to 2
25/5 = x/2
2 * 25/5 = x = 10 lbs
Fractions that aren't equivalent would be 30/60, 34/60 and anything that cannot be the same as 36/60.
The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:
x: the total mass of the chemical in the container
y: a sample of a chemical from a container
We have the following equation:
y = (3/10) x - 5 3/4
Then, for y = 39.1 we have:
39.1 = (3/10) x - 5 3/4
Clearing x:
(3/10) x = 39.1 + 5 3/4
(3/10) x = 44.85
x = (10/3) * (44.85)
x = 149.5 grams
Answer:
the total mass in grams of the chemical in the container before the scientist removed the sample of 39.1 grams was:
x = 149.5 grams.
