Write an equation to represent the following statement.
60 is 5 times as great as k.
Solve for k.
k =

Answer/explanation:

60=5k 

Is the equation because the word is means equals, so we add an equal sign after the 60. Five times greater simply means multiply so we multiply 5 and k.

To solve the equation, you would need to divide both sides by 5 to isolate the variable

60/5=5k/5

12=k

step-by-step explanation:

the inequality is:

250c+180g≥950

step-by-step explanation:

let c denotes the number of days in a week   miyoko worked as a cryptographer.

and g denotes the number of days in a week she works as a geologist.

now we are given that she earns $250 for every day she works as a cryptographer,and earns $180 for every day she works as a geologist.

now miyoko's goal is to earn more than $950 this week.

hence, the inequality could be represented as:

250c+180g≥950
