Jerry scored 581 points by collecting 7 coins. In all, how many coins does Jerry have to collect to score a total of 996 points? Solve using unit rates.

12 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

Points scored by collecting 7 coins = 581

Number of coins required to collect 996 points

Let Number of coins = c

7 coins = 581 points

c coins = 996 points

Cross multiply :

581 * c = 996 * 7

581c = 6972

Divide both sides by 581

581c / 581 = 6972 / 581

c = 12

Hence, number of coins required to collect 996 points is 12

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.
