Start by finding the sum of (-8 3/4) and (-2 5/6). Find the least common denominator (LCD). 12 is the first thing that both 4 and 6 will evenly divide into, so we convert both fractions to 12ths:
-8 3/4 = -8 9/12 (multiply 4 by 3 to get 12, so multiply the numerator, 3, by 3 as well)
-2 5/6 = -2 10/12 (multiply 6 by 2 to get 12, so multiply the numerator, 5, by 2 as well)
-8 9/12 + -2 10/12 = -10 19/12
We must convert the improper fraction. 12 goes into 19 1 time with 7 left over, so 19/12 = 1 7/12
This means that -10 19/12 = -11 7/12
The opposite of 1 1/5 is -1 1/5. Add this to -11 7/12. Again find the LCD; in this case it is 60.
-1 1/5 = -1 12/60
-11 7/12 = -11 35/60
Adding these two we get -12 47/60.
First, we solve for the number of minutes in 7 and 3/5 hours by multiplying the number by 60 giving us,
(7 + 3/5) x (60) = 456 minutes
Spending 30 minutes for lunch will leave her with 426 minutes. Then, spending 42 minutes for switching of classes will finally give her 414 minutes.
We then divide this value by 6 (for her 6 classes) giving us 69 minutes. Thus, each class is 69 minutes long.
All you have to do is substitute all the Xs to and get a final y output.
for example:
if we take the number x is -1 all you do is:
y=-4(-1)+2
y=4+2
y=6
thats the first one done
It is given in the question that
Ms. Velez will use both x gray bricks and y red bricks to build a wall around her garden. Gray bricks cost $0.45 each and red bricks cost $0.58 each. She can spend up to $200 on her project, and wants the number of red bricks to be less than half the number of gray bricks.
Maximum she can spend is $200. That is
And
And that's the required inequalities .
Economic Order Quantity
The economic order quantity, that is, the order quantity that minimizes the inventory cost is:
300 cases of tennis balls
Data and Calculations:
Sales of tennis balls for the coming year = 10,000 units
Carrying (holding) costs per case = $10
Cost of placing orders with the manufacturer = $45 per order
Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) = square root of (2 * Annual Demand/Sales * Ordering cost)/Carrying cost per case
= square root of (2 * 10,000 * $45)/$10
= square root of 90,000
= 300 tennis balls
This implies that the distributor will place about 33 orders in the coming year. With each order, the quantity placed is 300 units. This is the economic order quantity that will minimize its inventory cost for the year.
