We are going to make simultaneous equations.
x will be our $3 ice cream and y will be our $5 ice cream
Equation1 ---- x + y = 50 (the sum of all the ice creams they sell)
Equation 2 ---- 3x + 5y = 180 Sum of all the $3 and $5 ice creams is $180
Since we can't solve for both variables we will put one of the variables in terms of the other.
Take x+y=50 and subtract y from both sides. (I could have done subtracted x - it did not matter). Now we have x= ₋ y +50 (negative y +50)
Now I am going to take equation 2 and replace the x with -y +50
3 (-y +50) + 5y = 180
Now I will use the distributive law on the 3 and what's in the parentheses:
-3y + 150 + 5y = 180
Now I will combine like terms (the -3y and the 5y)
2y + 150 = 180
Now subtract 150 from both sides of the equation
2y = 30
Divide both sides by 2
and get y= 15 They sold 15 ice creams that cost $5 each
Since equation 1 is x+y=50 we can replace y with 15
x + 15 = 50 Now subtract 15 from both sides x = 35
Since x represents the $3 ice creams, they sold 35 of those.
Check:
35 X 3 = $105
15 x 5 = + <u>75
</u> $180
710/70 = 10.14, so round up to 11. The answer is C.

Write the inequalities that are given by the :
<span>x: the number of batches of muffins
y: the number of batches of cakes
</span>Each batch of muffin requires 7 liters of milk and each batch of cakes
require 4 liters of milk.
=> liters of milk use = 7x + 4y
<span>Tania
has 56 liters of milk.=> 7x + 4y ≤ 56
Which means that the amount of muffins and cakes made are limited by the availability of 56 liter of milk.
The inequality 7x + 4y ≤ 56 is graphed by drawing the line 7x + 4y = 56 and shading the region below that line.
The line 7x + 4y = 56 has these x and y intercepts:
y-intercept: x =0 => 4y = 56 => y = 56/4 => 14 => point (0,14)
x-intercept => y = 0 => 7x = 56 => x = 56/7= 8 => point (8,0)
So, the line passes through the poins (0,8) and (14,0) and the solution region is below that line.
Also, you know that x and y are restricted to be positive or zero =>
x ≥ 0
y ≥ 0.
So, the solution region is restricted to the first quadrant.
That implies that the answer is:

Line joining ordered pairs 0, 14 and 8, 0. Shade the portion of the graph below this line which lies within the first quadrant

We are given a volume of 160 fluid ounces of chemical which is added to a container that holds 120,000 gallons of water. Assuming that the chemical has the same density as water, we just need to convert 120,000 gallons to ounces.
A conversion factor is taken from literature, 1 gallon is equivalent to 128 fluid ounces. So 160 fluid ounces is only 1.25 gallons, thus occupying minimal space in the container. The employee could add more of the chemical in the container. He can actually add 15360000 fluid ounces in total.
