Answer:
a)1400 + 300x ≤ 5000
b) x ≤ 12 days
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Since the grocery store owner wants to stay within budget then, this means he would be spending at most $5,000
The word at most is represented by the inequality sign ≤ = Less than or equal to
Let x = Number of days
Hence,
Our inequality equation is
$1400 + 300× x ≤ $5000
1400 + 300x ≤ 5000
b) Solving for x
1400 + 300x ≤ 5000
300x ≤ 5000 - 1400
300x ≤ 3600
x ≤ 3600/300
x ≤ 12 days
Joanna bought 7 notebooks and 14 pencils
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Let x denote the number of notebooks and y denote the number of pencils Joanna bought.
Cost of one notebook = $ 2.30
Cost of one pencil = $1.42
Step 2 :
Total of notebooks and pencils bought = 21
=> x + y = 21 => y = 21-x
Total cost of notebooks and pencils = $35.98
=> 2.3x + 1.42y = 35.98
Substituting y = 21- x here , we have,
2.3x + 1.42 ( 21-x) = 35.98
2.3x + 29.82 - 1.42x = 35.98
0.88 x = 6.16
=> x = 7
y = 21-x = 21-7 = 14
Step 3 :
Answer :
Joanna bought 7 notebooks and 14 pencils
The answer is -7
The arrows both point toward the left side, and sine there are seven spaces the arrows are going through, you subtract 7 spaces and get -7

Answer:
a₁ = - 24
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an AP is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₇ = 2a₅ , then
a₁ + 6d = 2(a₁ + 4d) = 2a₁ + 8d ( subtract 2a₁ + 8d from both sides )
- a₁ - 2d = 0 → (1)
The sum to n terms of an AP is
= 
[ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ]
Given 
= 84 , then
(2a₁ + 6d) = 84
3.5(2a₁ + 6d) = 84 ( divide both sides by 3.5 )
2a₁ + 6d = 24 → (2)
Thus we have 2 equations
- a₁ - 2d = 0 → (1)
2a₁ + 6d = 24 → (2)
Multiplying (1) by 3 and adding to (2) will eliminate d
- 3a₁ - 6d = 0 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate d
- a₁ = 24 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
a₁ = - 24
