Question

help (fan and medal)

Answer 1

She has X to spent, and has already spent Y. That leaves her with X-Y left to spend. If guests cost $27 each, she divides the remaining amount of money (X-Y) by $27 to find out how many she can afford.

Answer 2

so, basically she doesn't want to spend more than she has; if she spends it all, she'll have zero dollars left in her budget. So, I'd say the simplest way to setup your equation is:

0 = 5137 - 2086 - 27x
.. then solve for x, where x would be the most number of guests she can have before going over budget.

Answer 3

3051-27x

Answer 4

27x = 5137-2086
27x = 3051
x = 3051/27

Answer 5

Did you find x?

Answer 10

because the situation can be modeled by a linear inequality of the form px + q < r, where p is the number of milligrams of caffeine per soda, q is the amount of caffeine Karla has already had today, and r is her recommended amount of caffeine.

Answer 11

because, her total daily intake is already 230 , if she has x number of sodas, it will add 35 mg per soda to her daily intake, and her total daily intake should be less than 300mg. :)

Answer 12

so, 230 + 35x should be less than 300. :)
