Round 2.81 to 2.8 and 3.72 to 3.7. Add both together to get 6.5
2 x 3.99 = 7.98
3 x 4.49 = 13.47
1 x 4.99 = 4.99
Total: 26.44
50.00 - 26.44 = 23.56
Answer:7
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 of j is the same as j ÷ 2
14 ÷ 2 = 7
Ok , with that information we can write the equations
x + y = 6
5x + 4y = 28
Where x = how many people ordered chicken
and y = how many people ordered egg salad
Through elimination , we can set one of the variables in both equations equal so we can eliminate it :
(4)x + (4)y = (4)6
5x + 4y = 28
4x + 4y = 24. equation 1
5x + 4y = 28. equation 2
Now we can subtract the second equation by the first equation and isolate one variable:
equation 2 - equation 1
5x - 4x + 4y - 4y = 28 - 24
x = 4
Now that we discovered our x value ( How many people ordered chicken salad ) , we can apply it to one of the equations and discover y ( how many people ordered egg salad)
x + y = 6
x= 4
4 + y = 6
We can shift 4 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation:
4 - 4 + y = 6 - 4
y = 2
x=4 and y=2
So the awnser is :
4 people ordered chicken salad and 2 people ordered egg salad!
I hope you understood my brief explanation!!
p.s if you want to know how to use another method to solve these problems ( Substition) , just let me know in a comentary down here
Answer:
x≤9
Step-by-step explanation:
9+2x≤27
1) Subtract both sides by 9:
2x≤18
2) Divide both sides by 2:
x≤9
