A children's birthday party at an indoor play center costs $50 to rent the space and $6.25 per child. Gina wants to spend no more than $100 on her son's fourth birthday party. Write an inequality for the number of children who can attend the birthday party, and solve the inequality. A) 50 + 6.25x ≤ 100; x ≤ 8 B) 50 + 6.25x ≥ 100; x ≥ 8 C) 50 + 6.25x < 100; x < 8 D) 50 + 6.25x > 100; x > 8 @gerryliyana
It's A 50 + 6.25x \[50 + 6.25x \le 100; x \le 8\]
\[50 + 6.25x \le 100; x \le8\]
Ok so what do you have to do to get that
number of childrens = x total cost <= 100 cost for x children's = 6.25x so final equation should be 6.25x + 50 <= 100
Oh ok thank you! I have some more questions.
go ahead
Ok next question: The gray area is the sidewalk. The area of the sidewalk is ___________ square units. A) 48 B) 56 C) 72 D) 84 Pic: http://www.usatestprep.com/modules/gallery/files/4/409/409.gif
The area of the sidewalk = the gray box area - the green box are have you tried it?
I sorta don't know how to do it.
first, you are supposed to find the gray (big) area (including green area in it) and the green area
Ok so that would be 120
yes, and the green area would be 48
Ok
So would we divide that?
No
Oh so what do we do next?
The area of the sidewalk = the gray box area - the green box area
The area of the sidewalk = the gray box area - the green box are The area of the sidewalk = 120 - 48
And that would be 72
yes!!
So it would be 72
yes good job!
the answer is C
Awesome! Well that's it for me tonight. Thank you so much! Will you be on Open Study tomorrow?
