From the given scenario, it can be deduced that Carrie ate 3/5 of what was left of the oranges that were left. To determine the fraction that Carrie ate, we will multiply 3/5 by 1/4. This is equal to 3/20. Thus, Carrie ate approximately 3/20 of the oranges left.
4x + 8 = 2x + 7 + 2x - 20
4x + 8 = 4x - 13
8 = -13
no solution.
hope that helps, God bless!
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The number of bacteria, B, in a refrigerated food is given by the function 
, where t is the temperature of food in degrees Fahrenheit.
The function 
gives the temperature, t, of the food h hours after being removed from the refrigerator.
Now, the number bacteria in the food in h hours is given by:-
So, The number bacteria in the food in h hours is given by:
Part A:
First we define the variable to be used for the problem:
x: the number of pages that Sandra should fax
The inequality for rent is:
0.06x <= 80
Note that the price will be less than using the fax from the office, since for the same number of pages, we have:
y = 0.10x
Answer:
an inequality that can be used to calculate the number of pages that Sandra should fax in a year is:
0.06x <= 80
Part B:
0.06x <= 80
From here we clear x:
x <= 80 / 0.06
x <= 1333.33333
Nearest whole number
x <= 1333
Sandra can use the leased fax for 1333 pages and the cost will be:
1333 * 0.06 = 79.98 $
Using the office fax the cost will be:
1333 * 0.1 = 133.3 $
Answer:
By renting the sara machine, you save:
133.3-79.98 = 53.32 $
