Answer: Part A = (100% - 80%)P = 35, Part B = 140
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Percentage: Like + Don't like = 100%
80% + Don't like = 100%
<u> -80% </u> <u> -80% </u>
Don't like = 20%
People: 20% of Patrons = Don't Like
0.20 x Patrons = 35
<u>÷ 0.20 </u> <u> ÷ 0.20 </u>
Patrons = 175
<u>Now, let's write the equation we used to get that answer</u>:
Let P represent the total number of patrons, then the equation is:
(100% - 80%)P = 35
= (1.00 - 0.80)P = 35
= 0.20P = 35
= P = 175
<u>Part B: </u>
80% of Patrons = Like
0.80 x 175 = Like
140 = Like

Answer:
7 18-inch wreaths
26 22-inch wreaths
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the number of 18-inch wreaths is x and the number of 22-inch wreaths is y.
We know that the number of 22-inch wreaths sold was 5 more than 3 times the number of 18-inch wreaths sold. We can write this into the expression as:
y = 5 + 3x
We also know that each 18-inch wreath was $20 and each 22-inch wreath was $25. The total cost was $790, so:
20x + 25y = 790
Now, let's substitute 5 + 3x in for y in the second equation:
20x + 25y = 790
20x + 25(5 + 3x) = 790
20x + 125 + 75x = 790
95x + 125 = 790
95x = 665
x = 7
Plug this value into y = 5 + 3x to find y:
y = 5 + 3x
y = 5 + 3 * 7 = 5 + 21 = 26
So, 7 18-inch wreaths were sold and 26 22-inch wreaths were sold.
Answer:
Ralphie's dad can eat 8 fruit bars without going over his calorie allotment.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Per day calorie intake limit = less than 2126 calories
Calories are already taken = 1586 calories
Calories in each fruit bar = 66 calories
Let,
x be the number of fruit bars that Ralphie's dad can consume.
Calories in each fruit bar*Number of fruit bars + calories already taken < per day limit
Dividing both sides by 66
