4. Pick the statement below that is TRUE. HELP VIDEO * 2 points Sheila can buy each item on her list 2 times. Sheila can buy 1 shirt, 1 jacket, 2 scarfs, and 3 hats. Sheila can buy more matching Jackets than matching hats. A jacket and a matching set of a scarf and hat would cost the same amount.
The statement "Sheila can buy 1 shirt, 1 jacket, 2 scarfs, and 3 hats." is TRUE.
5. Sheila plans to buy as many shirts as she can. The equation for this would be 18.75x = 150. How can Sheila determine if 9 is a solution to this equation? EXAMPLE VIDEO * 2 points Sheila can add 9 and 18.75. She would get 27.75. Since this is less than 150, 9 is a solution. Sheila can subtract 150 and 18.75. She would get 131.25. Since this is less than 150, 9 is a solution. Sheila can substitute 9 into the equation for x. 18.75 times 9 is 168.75. Since this number is not 150, 9 is not a solution. Sheila can substitute 9 into the equation for x. 18.75 divided by 9 is 2.08. Since this is less than 150, 9 is a solution.
The correct way for Sheila to determine if 9 is a solution to the equation 18.75x = 150 is by substituting 9 into the equation for x. 18.75 times 9 is 168.75. Since this number is not equal to 150, 9 is not a solution.
Sheila can add 9 and 18.75. She would get 27.75. Since this is less than 150, 9 is a solution. Sheila can subtract 150 and 18.75. She would get 131.25. Since this is less than 150, 9 is a solution. Sheila can substitute 9 into the equation for x. 18.75 times 9 is 168.75. Since this number is not 150, 9 is not a solution. Sheila can substitute 9 into the equation for x. 18.75 divided by 9 is 2.08. Since this is less than 150, 9 is a solution.
My apologies for the confusion. You are correct. Sheila can substitute 9 into the equation for x. 18.75 times 9 is indeed 168.75. Since this number is not equal to 150, 9 is not a solution.
2. Using your answer from the last question, how many matching sets can she buy? (HINT: Solve for x) EXAMPLE VIDEO * 2 points 4 sets 300 sets 10 sets 51 sets
To determine the number of matching sets Sheila can buy, we need to solve the equation 18.75x = 150 for x.
Dividing both sides of the equation by 18.75, we get:
x = 150 / 18.75 = 8
Therefore, Sheila can buy 8 matching sets.
that is incorrect
I apologize for the mistake. Let's correctly solve for x to determine the number of matching sets Sheila can buy.
Given the equation 18.75x = 150, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 18.75:
x = 150 / 18.75 = 8
So, Sheila can buy 8 matching sets, not 4 as mentioned previously.
