A student ate 3/20 of all the candy and another 1.2 lb. Another student ate 3/5 of the candy and the remaining 0.3 lb. What was the total weight of the candy they ate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 6 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Total weight of the candy = x

3/20x + 1.2 lb + 3/5x + 0.3 lb = x

3/20x + 3/5x + 1.5 lb = x

3x+12x/20 + 1.5 lb = x

15/20x + 1.5 = x

1.5 = x - 15/20x

1.5 =20x -15x /20

1.5 = 5/20x

1.5 = 1/4x

x = 1.5 ÷ 1/4

= 1.5 × 4/1

= 6

x = 6 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio the ratio of two numbers is 5:6 . find the sum of two numbers is 55. find the number​

Answers

Answer:

25 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio of 2 numbers is 5 : 6 = 5x : 6x ( x is a multiplier ), then

5x + 6x = 55, that is

11x = 55 ( divide both sides by 11 )

x = 5

Thus

5x = 5 × 5 = 25

6x = 6 × 5 = 30

Then the 2 numbers are 25 and 30

Answers

Answer:

26  and 1x+3y   on Delta math

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Each free throw scores 1 point, so 8 free throws would score 1\times 81×8 or 8 points. Each three point shot scores 3 points, so 6 three point shots would score 3\times 63×6 or 18 points. Therefore, the total number of points Madison would score is 26.

There are sixteen 15-cent stamps and eight 20-cent stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stamp collector has:

15c stamps

20c stamps

Total value is $4

x($0.15) + y($0.20) = $4.00

The # of 15c stamps is 8 - than 3 * the # of 20c stamps; 15c = 8 - 3c

x = 3y - 8

(3y-8)(0.15)+y(0.20) = $4.00

0.45)y-1.20+(0.20)y = 4.00

(0.65)y-1.20 = 4.00

(0.65)y = 5.20

y = 8

x = 3(8)-8 = 16

There are sixteen 15-cent stamps and eight 20-cent stamps.

Check:

16($0.15)+8($0.20) = $2.40+$1.60 = $4.00

He cafeteria at Midtown Middle School surveyed 575 students about their favorite food. If 8% of the students surveyed liked chicken, how many students said that chicken is their favorite food?

Answers

Answer:

46.08 students said that chicken is their favorite food.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denote the number of students who liked chicken.

The proportion of students who liked chicken is, p = 0.08.

About n = 576 students were surveyed about their favorite food.

Every student's answer was independent of the others.

Thus, the random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 576 and p = 0.08.

The probability mass function of X is:

[tex]P(X=x)={576\choose x}(0.08)^{x}(1-0.08)^{576-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...576[/tex]

Then expected number of students who said that chicken is their favorite food is:

[tex]E(X)=np\\\\=576\times0.08\\\\=46.08[/tex]

Thus, 46.08 students said that chicken is their favorite food.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

12 + 24 is 36, so divide that by 4, that gives you the answer, which is 9

The equation that represents the situation is 12 - 4x = 24. Then the solution of the equation will be negative 3.

What is the solution to the equation?

The allocation of weights to the important variables that produce the calculation's optimum is referred to as a direct consequence.

When 12 is subtracted from 4 times a number, the result is 24.

Let the number be 'x'. Then the equation is given as,

12 - 4x = 24

Simplify the equation, then we have

12 - 4x = 24

- 4x = 24 - 12

- 4x = 12

4x = - 12

x = - 12 / 4

x = - 3

The equation that represents the situation is 12 - 4x = 24. Then the solution of the equation will be negative 3.

Darius sees a new store advertising 10 of the same packs of paper clips for $41.50. Which statement best describes the strategy Darius should use to get the best price for each pack?

Answers

Answer:

$4.150/pack

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the price of 10packs as $41.50, we can express it as;

10 packs = $41.50

To get the equivalent price of 1 pack, we will say;

1 pack = $x

Solving both equalities for x;

10 packs = $41.50

1 pack = $x

cross multiply

10 * x =  1 * 41.50

10x = 41.50

Divide both sides by 10

10x/10 = 41.50/10

x = 4.150

Hence the price for each pack is $4.150
