Hey there!
In order to answer this question, it's easiest to start with one of the money amounts and work your way to the other ones. Keep in mind that, no matter what, the amount of collective money won't exceed 1.50, meaning you can't have two 1 dollar bills, etc. When I wrote it out, I did it in this order:
1 = 1 dollar
0.5 = Half dollar
0.25 = Quarter
1 + 0.5 = 1.50
1 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 1.50
0.5 + 0.5 + 0.5 = 1.50
0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 1.50
0.5 + (0.25*4) = 1.50
0.25*6 = 1.50
Since no other combinations add up to 1.50, your answer is 6.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
To find equivalent inequalities you have to work the inequality given.
The first step is transpose on of sides to have an expression in one side and zero in the other side:
x - 6 x + 7
--------- ≥ --------
x + 5 x + 3
=>
x - 6 x + 7
--------- - -------- ≥ 0
x + 5 x + 3
=>
(x - 6) (x + 3) - (x + 7) (x + 5)
--------------------------------------- ≥ 0
(x + 5) (x + 3)
=>
x^2 - 3x - 18 - x^2 - 12x - 35
--------------------------------------- ≥ 0
(x + 5) (x + 3)
15x + 53
- ------------------- ≥ 0
(x + 5) (x + 3)
That is an equivalent inequality. Sure you can arrange it to find many other equivalent inequalities. That is why you should include the list of choices. Anyway from this point it should be pretty straigth to arrange the terms until making the equivalent as per the options.
First distribute the 2(2+4x)
3x-4+4+8x
then just combine like terms.
8+11x
therefore
3x-4+2(2+4x)=8+11x<span />
Answer:
brueh what im confused
Step-by-step explanation:
Sugar: x pounds
flour: 2x + 5 pounds
2x + 3(2x + 5) = 40
2x + 6x + 15 = 40
8x = 25
x = 3.125
-> a sack of flour is 3.125 + 5 = 8.125 pounds
I hope it‘s coorect
