Antoine has $18.20 to spend on some oranges and a pumpkin. oranges cost $1.30 per pound, and a pumpkin costs $5.20. the inequality 1.30x + 5.20 ≤ 18.20 models this situation, where x is the number of pounds of oranges. solve the inequality. how many pounds of oranges can antoine buy?

Hi!

To solve this inequality, we have to isolate x on one side. Whatever we do to the equation we have to do it on both sides.

1.30x + 5.20 ≤ 18.20

Subtract 5.20 from both sides.

1.30x + 5.20 - 5.20 ≤ 18.20 - 5.20

1.30x ≤ 13

Divide by 1.30 on both sides.

1.30x/1.30 ≤ 13/1.30

x ≤ 10

Antoine can buy 10 pounds of oranges.

Hope this helps! :)

Antoine can buy 10 pounds of oranges or less!!!

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1

is means division by fractions
