Step-by-step explanation:

Answer C)

Explanation:

MN + NP = MP

MP = 39

Therefore, 4(x + 5) + 2x + 1= MP

So, 4(x + 5) + 2x + 1= 39

(4x + 20) + 2x +1 = 39

So, (4x + 2x) + (20 + 1) = 39

6x + 21 = 39

Addition changes to Subtraction

So, 6x = 39 - 21

6x = 18

Multiplication changes to Division

x= 18/6

x=3

Therefore MN = 4(x + 5)

So, 4(3 + 5) = 4(8)

4(8) = 32

Therefore, MN = 32

Hope this helps!

The dance committee of Pine Bluff Middle School earns $72 from a bake sale and will earn $4 for each ticket they sell to the Spr

nordsb [41]

Answer:

t > 82

Step-by-step explanation:

First write what we know.

Earned $72

$4 per ticket, t

Cost is $400

So let's write our equation:

The cost is $400 so we put that on the left side,

$400 =

Now on the right side, we know they earned $72, so +$72 and each ticket (t) is $4 so $4t would represent the amount earned after they sell a certain number of tickets.

So we write:

$400 = $4t + $72 Now solve for t to find the number of tickets they need to sell.

400 = 4t + 72 Subtract 72 from each side.

400 - 72 = 4t + 72 - 72

328 = 4t Divide each side by 4.

328/4 = 4t/4

328/4 = t

82 = t

If the committee wants money left over they need to sell more than 82 tickets!

Our inequality is:

t > 82

A pharmacist has an 18% alcohol solution and a 40% alcohol solution. How much of each should he mix together to make 10 liters o

ladessa [460]

X = amount of the 18% solution

y = amount of the 40% solution

we know the 18% solution has only 18% of alcohol, the rest is maybe water or something, now, how many liters is 18%? well, 18% of anything is just (18/100) * anything, so, 18% of x is just (18/100) *x or 0.18x, and that's how many liters are there.

likewise, how many liters are there in the 40% solution? well, (40/100) * y, or 0.4y, that many.

we know the mixture has to yield 10 liters at 20% alcohol, how many liters of only alcohol is that? well, (20/100) * 10, or 2 liters.

$\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&\stackrel{liters}{amount}&\stackrel{alcohol~\%}{quantity}&\stackrel{liters}{alcohol}\\
&------&------&------\\
\textit{18\% solution}&x&0.18&0.18x\\
\textit{40\% solution}&y&0.40&0.4y\\
------&------&------&------\\
mixture&10&0.20&2
\end{array}$

$\bf \begin{cases}
x+y=10\implies \boxed{y}=10-x\\
0.18x+0.4y=2\\
----------\\
0.18x+0.4\left( \boxed{10-x} \right)=2
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
0.18x-0.4x+4=2\implies -0.22x=-2
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{-2}{-0.22}\implies x=\cfrac{100}{11}\implies x=9\frac{1}{11}$

how much of the 40% solution? well y = 10 - x
