The selected answer is A: 75 * 3/5 = 75*3=225, and then 225/5 = 45.

To verify:
75/5 gives $15 for each shirt, thus for 3 red shirts: 3 * 15 = 45.

CRITICAL THINKING A local zoo employs 36 people to take care of the animals each day. At most, 24 of the employees work full tim
lawyer [12517]
We consider all workers as either full-time or part-time. 36 = 24 + 12 If there are 24 or fewer full-time workers, there must be at least 12 part-time workers. (This conclusion is based on the understanding of sums.) You can formulate the inequality in two steps. First, present and resolve an equation for full-time workers in relation to part-time workers. Then, apply the specified limit on full-time workers. This results in an inequality that can be solved for part-time workers. Let f and p represent full-time and part-time positions, respectively. f + p = 36... given f = 36 - p... subtract p to express f in terms of p. f ≤ 24......... given (36 - p) ≤ 24.... substitute for f. This gives your inequality in terms of p. 36 - 24 ≤ p.... rearranging gives p ≥ 12........ this is the solution to the inequality

Terrence walks at a pace of 2 mi/h to the theater and watches a movie for 2 hours and 15 min he rides a bus back home at 40 mi/h
zzz [12365]

Solution:

Let x be the distance in miles from the house to the theater.

Total time taken for the trip =3.5-2.25=1.25 Hr

Then average speed =\frac{Distance}{Time}= \frac{2x}{1.25}\\

Terrence walks at a speed of 2 miles per hour to the theater and returns home at 40 miles per hour.

Thus, Average Speed =\frac{2+40}{2}= 21\\ mi/hr

Both average speeds must be equivalent. Hence, we can express this as:

\frac{2x}{1.25}=21\\
\\
2x=1.25*21\\
\\
x=13.125\\

Consequently, the distance from home is 13.125 miles.

Which equations represent the line that is parallel to 3x − 4y = 7 and passes through the point (−4, −2)? Select two options. y
Inessa [12570]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain a line parallel to the equation 3x − 4y = 7, any equivalent line will share the same format but differ by a constant value.

If the new line is intended to go through the point (-4, -2), substitute x with -4 and y with -2. This leads to:

3(-4) − 4(-2) = -12 + 8 = -4. Thus, the new required equation would be 3x − 4y = -4.

It can also be expressed as 3x − 4y + 4 = 0.  Additionally, if we solve for y, we get:

3x + 4 = 4y, leading to  y = (3/4)x + 1.
