Answer:
We have, 15% × x = 85
or,
15
100
× x = 85
Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 15,
we have x = 85 ×
100
15
x = 566.67
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
1000 square feet of wheat produces 250 pounds of grain.
x − y = 0 = difference
x + y = 4 = sum
Can be solved by the sum and difference rule (most of the time without pen and paper)
x=(sum+difference)/2=0+4/2=2
y=(sum-difference)/2=(4-0)/2=2
Answer:
see attached diagram
Step-by-step explanation:
First, draw the dashed line 50x+150y=1500 (dashed because the inequality is without notion "or equal to"). You can do it finding x and y intercepts.
When x=0, then 150y=1500, y=10.
When y=0, then 50x=1500, x=30.
Connect points (0,10) and (30,0) to get needed dashed line.
Then determine which region (semiplane) you have to choose. Note that origin's coordinates (0,0) do not satisfy the inequality 50x + 150y>1500, because

This means that origin lies outside the needed region, so you have to choose the semiplane that do not contain origin (see attached diagram).
