Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
For the sake of the problem, let's make female workers "x" and male workers "y".
x+y<40 This equation shows that the total number of workers has a max of 40.
30x+20y<1,000 This equation shows that the total cost the manager pays ($30 to each woman, $20 to each man) has a max of $1,000.
Now you can solve for x and y.
X+y<40
-y -y
X<-y+40
Substitute -y+40 in for X in the second equation
30(-y+40)+20y<1,000
-30y+1200+20y<1,000 Distribute
-10y+1,200<1,000 Combine like terms
-10y<-200 Subtract 1,200
y>20 Divide by -10; flip the sign
Since y>20, and y=male workers, you now know that the minimum
number of male workers he should send is 20
.20 is the correct answer because 100-99.80
Answer: 23.1, 231/10, or 23 1/10
Step by step explanation:
33.65/1.5 - divide the terms
23.1
Answer:
60%
Step-by-step explanation:
12 kids played. 8 didn't play. That means there is a total of 20 students.
The fraction would be 12/20.
To make it into a percent, divide 100 by the denominator (20) and multiply it by the numerator (12)
100 divided by 20 is 5
12 x 5 = 60
To solve this problem, we must remember that division is the inverse operation of multiplication. This means to undo any multiplication problem, we can divide.
Because 8 * -2 = -16, if we divide the product by the two factors, we can reveal this unique relationship, as shown below:
-16/-2 = 8
-16/8 = -2
Therefore, the two division problems above are your answer.
Hope this helps!
