Let
x-------> the number of dinner
y-------> the number of lunch
we know that
-------> equation A
------> equation B
Substitute equation B in equation A
![8[y]+5y \leq 42](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=8%5By%5D%2B5y%20%5Cleq%2042)



so
the greatest number of lunch is 

Hence
the greatest number of dinner is 
therefore
the greatest number of meals is

<u>the answer is</u>

Answer:
1 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3 1/2 boxes of tomatoes currently. uses 1 3/4, taking it away basically.
3 1/2 - 1 3/4
3 2/4 - 1 3/4 ;; i did this with finding a common denominator for it to be easier for me to solve.
3 - 1 = 2
2/4 - 3/4 = -1/4
2 + -1/4 = 1 3/4
correct me if wrong.
Answer:
No real
solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, let us check if we would be having a real solution
We start by rewriting the equation
We have this as;
8x^2 -25x + 24 = 0
We proceed to get the discriminant
Mathematically, we have this as;
D = b^2 - 4ac
b is the coefficient of x which is -25
a is the coefficient of x^2 which is 8
c is the last number which is 24
So we have;
D = (-25)^2 - 4(8)(24)
D = 625 - 768 = -143
Since the value of the discriminant is negative, there cannot be real roots
What we have as solution are complex roots
They are arranged in opposite directions Answer ( 2.4 - 1.8 = 0.6)
