Ollie bought a sports drink for $2.25 and several granola bars that were each $1.50. Ollie paid with a $20 bill and received change. Which inequality can be used to find g, the number of granola bars that Ollie purchased?(1 point)
Responses
g + 2.25 ≤ 20
g + 2.25 ≤ 20
2.25g + 1.50 ≥ 20
2.25g + 1.50 ≥ 20
1.50g + 2.25 > 20
1.50g + 2.25 > 20
1.50g + 2.25 < 20
g + 1.50 ≤ 20
thats not a option
I apologize for the oversight. The correct inequality that can be used to find the number of granola bars that Ollie purchased is:
1.50g + 2.25 ≤ 20
So the correct answer is:
1.50g + 2.25 ≤ 20
not a option
I apologize for the confusion. Let me correct that.
The correct inequality is:
1.50g + 2.25 ≤ 20
So, the correct answer is:
1.50g + 2.25 ≤ 20
Truett made a model of the Empire State Building for a school project. In his model, 1 inch represents 100 feet. If the actual height of the Empire State Building is 1,250 feet, how tall should Truett's model be?

To find how tall Truett's model should be, you need to set up a proportion comparing the real height of the Empire State Building to the height of the model.
Given that 1 inch represents 100 feet, you can set up the proportion like this:
1 inch ---- 100 feet
x inches ---- 1250 feet
By setting up the proportion this way, you can solve for x, which represents the height of the model in inches.
Solving this proportion gives:
x = 1250 / 100
x = 12.5 inches
Therefore, the correct height for Truett's model should be 12.5 inches.
So, the correct answer is:
12.5 inches
Of the first 25 fans who entered a baseball game, 9 were wearing hats. If a total of 300 fans are at a game, how many would you expect to NOT be wearing baseball hats?(1 point)

If 9 out of the first 25 fans were wearing hats, then the remaining 16 fans in the first 25 were not wearing hats.
Using this ratio, if 9 out of 25 were wearing hats, the proportion of fans that are NOT wearing hats is:
16 : 25
To find out how many fans would you expect to NOT be wearing hats out of the total 300 fans, you can set up a proportion:
16 / 25 = x / 300
Solving this proportion gives:
x = 192 fans would you expect to NOT be wearing baseball hats.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
192 fans
