Answer:
<h2>1 < x < 6 ⇒ x ∈ (1, 6)</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 8 > -5 <em>add 8 to both sides</em>
3x > 3 <em>divide both sides by 3</em>
x > 1
2x - 7 < 5 <em>add 7 to both sides</em>
2x < 12 <em>divide both sides by 2</em>
x < 6
From x > 1 and x < 6 we have the solution 1 < x < 6 ⇒ x ∈ (1, 6)
Answer: 15 cases
Step-by-step explanation:
1 gallon = 4 quarts
Hence from 30 gallon oil drum, 30 x 4 = 120 quart-size bottles can be filled.
One case will pack 8 quart size bottles.
Hence number of cases = 120/8 = 15 cases
Given: 11-pound mixture of peanuts, almonds, and raisins
Cost:
peanuts - 1.5 per pound
almonds - 3 per pound
raisins - 1.5 per pound
mixture:
twice as many peanuts as almond; total cost of mixture is 21.
a + p + r = 11 lbs
a + 2a + r = 11 lbs
3a + r = 11
r = 11 - 3a
1.5(2a) + 3a + 1.5r = 21
3a + 3a + 1.5r = 21
6a + 1.5r = 21
6a + 1.5(11-3a) = 21
6a + 16.5 - 4.5a = 21
6a - 4.5a = 21 - 16.5
1.5a = 4.5
1.5a/1.5 = 4.5/1.5
a = 3
almonds = 3 lbs
peanuts = 2a = 2(3) = 6lbs
raisins = 11 - 3a = 11 - 3(3) = 11 - 9 = 2 lbs
<span>My answer is: C. 6 lbs peanuts, 3 lbs almonds, 2 lbs raisins </span>
