boyakko [2]

The inequality that correctly represents this scenario is given as follows:

2x + 5y \leq 25

The graph is given at the end of the question.

<h3>What is a system of inequalities?</h3>

A system of inequalities is when two or more variables are related, and inequalities are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are given as follows:

  • Variable x: number of chocolate chips purchased.
  • Variable y: number of pecans sold.

Chocolate chips are $2 per pound and pecans are $5 per pound. She wants to spend at most $25, hence:

2x + 5y \leq 25

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

\dfrac{225}{64}

Step-by-step explanation:

(4^3)^{-2} \times (2^3)^4 \times (\dfrac{8}{15})^{-2} =

= (2^2)^{-6} \times 2^{12} \times (\dfrac{15}{8})^{2}

= 2^{-12} \times 2^{12} \times \dfrac{225}{64}

= \dfrac{225}{64}

Let set C = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} and set D = {2, 4, 6, 8}.
g100num [7]
<span>1. If it is intersection then it SHOULD be included in both the sets right? Now we know that odd numbers from 1-100 but the second set are multiples of 5 from 50-150! So we mainly need to look for common numbers which are ODD and are a MULTIPLE OF 5 BETWEEN 50 - 100!! So A={51,53,57,59,61......99} B={55,60,65,70.......95} [We stop till 100 because set A has no such element] So what is A ∩ B here? A ∩ B = {All odd numbers and multiples of 5 between 50 - 100}
