Shane and Abha earned a team badge that required their team to collect no less than 2000 cans for recycling. Abha collected 178

Katarina [22]

Answer:

$2x+178\geq 2000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the number of cans collected by Shane = x.

So, the number of cans collected by Abha = x + 178.

Since, at least 2000 cans are required to be collected.

Thus, we have the inequality,

Number of cans by Shane + Number of cans by Abha ≥ 2000.

i.e. $x+(x+178)\geq 2000$

i.e. $2x+178\geq 2000$

Thus, the required inequality is $2x+178\geq 2000$ .

Mike has coffee worth $4 per pound that he wishes to mix with 20 pounds of coffee worth $7 per pound to get a mixture that can b

Alinara [238K]

$\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&\stackrel{lbs}{amount}&\stackrel{per~lb}{price}&\stackrel{amount}{price}\\
&------&------&------\\
\textit{\$4/lb coffee}&x&4&4x\\
\textit{\$7/lb coffee}&20&7&140\\
------&------&------&------\\
mixture&y&5&5y
\end{array}$

so, we know the mixture is the sum of both types of coffee, thus x + 20 = y, and 4x + 140 = 5y.

$\bf \begin{cases}
x+20=\boxed{y}\\
4x+140=5y\\
----------\\
4x+140=5\left( \boxed{x+20} \right)
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
4x+140=5x+100\implies 140-100=5x-4x\implies 40=x$
