tim earns $150/week plus $15.00 for each desk he assembles. Write an inequality to represent how many desks he needs assemble to

Gennadij [26K]

x = number of desks needed to make

equation: 150 +15.50x >= 400

solution:

150 +15.50x >=400

15.50x = 250

x = 250/15.50 = 16.129

he needs to assemble 17 desks

15.50*17 = 263.50 +150 = $413.50

Solve the proportion. s+1/4=4/8

Murrr4er [49]

<span>5*s-(4*s)-(1/2) = -1/4-(4/8) // + -1/4-(4/8)

5*s-(4*s)-(1/2)-(-1/4)+4/8 = 0

5*s-4*s-1/2+1/4+4/8 = 0

s+1/4 = 0 // - 1/4

s = -1/4

s = -1/4

A gift basket has 2 soaps and 5 lotions and costs $20. A second basket has 6 spas and 15 lotions and cost $60. Is it possible to

kifflom [539]

A second basket has 6 spas--- I think you mean 6 soaps , so i will work with that

Answer:it is not possible to determine the price of the soap with the information given.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s0ap be represented as x

and lotion be represented as y

2 soaps and 5 lotions costing $20 gives us equation 1 as

2 x+ 5y= 20-------- equation 1

second basket with 6 soaps and 15 lotions and costing $60 gives us equation 2 as

6x + 15y= 60------equation 2

Step 2 -- Solving

2 x+ 5y= 20-------- equation 1

6x + 15y= 60--------equation 2

BY elimination method, we multiply equation 1 by (3)

2x + 5y= 20 x (3)

6x + 15y=60-------equation 3

Subtraction of equation 3 from equation 2 gives us

6x + 15y=60-------equation 3

-6x + 15y= 60--------equation 2

0x +0y=0 which is no solution

Therefore it is not possible to determine the price of the soap

13. $\frac{4}{10} , \frac{4}{100}$

16. $\frac{3}{9}$ is already in simplest form.

Solve each system by the addition method.

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

(x, y) = (2, -1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = -1

5x - 4y = 16

<=>

(2)x + (2)2y = (2)(-1)

5x - 4y = 16

<=>

2x + 4y = -2

5x - 4y = 16

<=>

7x = 14

<=>

x = 2

(*)x + 2y = -1

=> 2 + 2y = -1

=> 2y = -3

=> y = -1.5

=> (x, y) = (2, -1.5)
