Answer:
P=$254
Step-by-step explanation:
let Hot N' Spicy be x
and Mild Mannered be y
the objective function is
38x+35y=P
the constraints are
1. tomato sauce
2x+3y=18--------1
2. hot peppers
2x+y=10--------2
solving 1 and 2 we have
using substitution method
2x+y=10--------2
y=10-2x
put y=10-2x in eqn 1
2x+3(10-2x)=18
2x+30-6x=18
2x-6x=18-30
-4x=-12
x=12/4
x=3
put x=3 in eqn 2 we have
2(3)+y=10
6+y=10
y=10-6
y=4
He should make 3 gallons of Hot N' Spicy
and 4 gallons Mild Mannered
38(3)+35(4)=P
114+140=P
254=P
P=$254
OK, so for this equation, your goal is to get the d, and ONLY the d, on one side of the equation. So, to start out, you need to multiply the entire equation, meaning both sides, by 8 because we are trying to get rid of those pesky fractions.
8(1/8(3d-2)=1/4(d+5))
The equation then turns into this because the 8 and 4 cancelled out with the 8.
1(3d-2)=2(d+5)
Now, we need to distribute the left over numbers into the parenthesis.
3d-2=2d+10
And finally, we need to get the d's on one side, and the numbers on the other, so we subtract 2d from both sides and add the 2 to both sides. They then cancel out to make
d=12
Hope it helps! :)
Answer:
4x3=12
12x4=48
48/12=4
48/4=12

Answer:
3x+9 < 60 where x = Audrey's age
Step-by-step explanation:
Lou says "even if you tripled you age", which means that if Audrey's age is represented by the variable x, then we would multiply it by 3 to get 3x. the next part says "and add 9". We already have the 3x, so we would just tack on a +9 to get 3x + 9. The last part says "you still wouldn't be as old as me." Given that 3x+9 represents Audrey's age, this equation would have to be less than Lou's age, which in this case is 60.
