Sabastian went to the deli to purchase a Gatorade and gum. The Gatorade cost $1.75, and the price of the gum he wants is $0.35 for each pack. Sabastian doesn’t have any cash on him, so he tries to use his credit card to buy one Gatorade and one pack of gum. The cashier points to a sign that says “$6 minimum for credit cards” Sabastian decides to buy 1 Gatorade but is considering buying as many packs of gum as needed to pay by credit card.

a) Write an inequality that can be used to determine the number of packs of gum, p, that Sabastian must buy to pay by credit card.

b) Determine the minimum number of packs Sabastian will need to buy so that he can pay for the total using his credit card. Justify your answer.

step-by-step explanation:

-4

do 6-10=

if u need it to be negative.

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
