Cole ate 2/3 of the cookies in the cookie jar. Jim ate 1/4 of the cookies

Mathematics
1 answer:
djyliett [7]2 years ago

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we start with 2 dozen = 2 * 12 = 24 cookies

next, cole eats 2/3 of the cookies

2/3 of the cookies = 2/3 * 24 = 16

we are then left with

original # - # of cookies cole ate = 24 - 16 = 8

next, jim eats 1/4 of the cookies left

cookies left = 8

1/4 of cookies left = 1/4 * 8 = 2

cookies left - cookies jim eats = cookies still in jar = 8 - 2 = 6

A plane flew 360km in 3 hrs when flying with the wind.With no change in the wind,the return trip took 4 hrs.Find the speed of th
morpeh [17]
Speed of the plane: 250 mph
Speed of the wind: 50 mph
Explanation:
Let p = the speed of the plane
and w = the speed of the wind
It takes the plane 3 hours to go 600 miles when against the headwind and 2 hours to go 600 miles with the headwind. So we set up a system of equations.
600
m

3
h
r
=
p
−
w
600
m
i
2
h
r
=
p
+
w
Solving for the left sides we get:
200mph = p - w
300mph = p + w
Now solve for one variable in either equation. I'll solve for x in the first equation:
200mph = p - w
Add w to both sides:
p = 200mph + w
Now we can substitute the x that we found in the first equation into the second equation so we can solve for w:
300mph = (200mph + w) + w
Combine like terms:
300mph = 200mph + 2w
Subtract 200mph on both sides:
100mph = 2w
Divide by 2:
50mph = w
So the speed of the wind is 50mph.
Now plug the value we just found back in to either equation to find the speed of the plane, I'll plug it into the first equation:
200mph = p - 50mph
Add 50mph on both sides:
250mph = p
So the speed of the plane in still air is 250mph.

Caroline is considering two video game rental plans. Plan A can be modeled with the equation C = 2n, and Plan B can be modeled w
meriva

Options

A. Caroline rents exactly 7 games each month.

B. Caroline rents exactly 6 games each month.

C. Caroline rents 6 or more games each month.

D. Caroline rents from 1 to 5 games each month.

Answer:

D. Caroline rents from 1 to 5 games each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Plan A:

C = 2n

Plan B:

C = n + 6

Required

Which options justifies A over B

The solution to this question is option (d).

In option d, n = 1,2,3,4,5

When any of the values of n is substituted in plan A and B, respectively; the cost of plan A is cheaper than plan B.

This is not so, for other options (A - C)

To show:

Substitute 1 for n in A and B

Plan A:

C = 2n  = 2 * 1 = 2

Plan B:

C = n + 6 = 1 + 6 = 7

Substitute 5 for n in A and B

Plan A:

C = 2n  = 2 * 5 = 10

Plan B:

C = n + 6 = 5 + 6 = 11

<em>See that A < B</em>
