Answer:

$100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Wednesday sales = $350

If the amount collected from sales on Wednesday was $75 greater than the amount collected from sales on Tuesday, then Tuesday's sales were $75 less than Wednesday's sales:

Tuesday sales = $350 - $75 = $275

If the amount collected from sales on Wednesday was two times as great as the amount collected from sales on Monday, then Monday's sales were half Wednesday's sales:

Monday sales = $350 ÷ 2 = $175

To calculate how much more the farmstand collected from sales on Tuesday than it collected on Monday, subtract the Monday sales from the Tuesday sales:

$275 - $175 = $100

Tuesday sales and Monday sales be T and M respectively

Wednesday sales be W

So as per question

T+75=W
T=W-75
T=350-75
T=$275

And

2M=W
M=W/2
M=350/2
M=$175

Difference

T-M=275-175=$100

Find a solution of the linear inequality. y>_4x-5

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

(0,0) is among the solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is $y\ge4x-5$

A solution to this inequality is any ordered pair that satisfies the inequality.

Let us check for x=0 and y=0

We substitute to get:

$0\ge4*0-5$

$0\ge-5$ ....This is true.

Therefore (0,0) is a solution to the given inequality.

There are infinitely many solutions.
