The correct answer is 55/4 which is equal to 13.75.
This is basically saying how much of the pizza did Tashia and Jay both ate, thus combining their portions together.
1/3 + 3/8 = fraction of pizza eaten
To add fractions, you must have a common denominator. Which is 24 in this case because 3*8 = 24.
So you multiply 1/3 with 8 and multiply 3/8 with 3.
1/3*8= 8/24
3/8*3= 9/24
Now you add the fractions.
8/24+9/24= 17/24. You add the numerator, the denominator stays the same.
17/24 of the pizza was eaten.
a. The inequality 15x+300≤750 represents the situation.
b. It means that the band can spend at most $30 on each uniform without exceeding the budget.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Budget = $750
Competition fee = $300
Uniforms to make = 15
Let,
x be the amount for each uniform.
a. Write an inequality to represent this situation.
Uniforms to make * Cost per uniform + Competition ≤ Budget
15x+300 ≤ 750
The inequality 15x+300≤750 represents the situation.
b. Solve the inequality and describe what it means in the situation.

Dividing both sides by 15

It means that the band can spend at most $30 on each uniform without exceeding the budget.
