Answer:

  • 147 sodas
  • 88 hot dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is similar to many others in which the sum of two quantities and their difference are given. The solution can be found easily when the equations for the relations are written in standard form.

<h3>Setup</h3>

Let s and h represent numbers of sodas and hot dogs sold, respectively. The given relations are ...

  • s +h = 235 . . . . . combined total
  • s -h = 59 . . . . . . difference in the quantities

<h3>Solution</h3>

Adding the two equations eliminates one variable.

  (s +h) +(s -h) = (235) +(59)

  2s = 294 . . . . simplify

  s = 147 . . . . . .divide by 2

  h = 147 -59 = 88 . . . . h is 59 less

147 sodas and 88 hot dogs were sold.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The solution to a "sum and difference" problem is always the same. One of the numbers is half the sum of those given, and the other is half their difference. ((235-59)/2 = 88)

0.75

1.1

\frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Acuerdate que para solucionar las fracciones mixtas solo tienes que dividir el denominador al nominador, por ejemplo en si tienes \frac{10}{3} entonces el 3 cabe 3 veces en el 10, y sobra 1, entonces quedamos que en mixta la fracción sería 3\frac{1}{3}

Entonces una vez que recordamos eso, podemos resolver los problemas de fracciones sin ningún problema vamos a resolver la número 4:

\frac{8}{10} +\frac{7}{10}

Como el denominador es igual, sólo sumamos el nominador:

\frac{8+7}{10}

\frac{15}{10}

Cómo el 10 cabe 1 vez en el 15, tenemos un entero y sobran 5:

1\frac{5}{10}

1) Omar has scored 85, 71, and 77 on the first three exams in his math class. If the standard 70,80,90 scale is used for grades
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

a. 47

b. 87

c. 127

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume a total of 4 exams ( first 3 plus a final)

Let final score be X,

Hence,  average score = (85 + 71 + 77 + x) / 4 = (233 + x) / 4

a) to get a C, the average score must be 70

70 = (233 + x) / 4

(233 + x) = 70 (4) = 280

x = 280 - 233 = 47 (Ans)

b) to get a B, the average score must be 80

80 = (233 + x) / 4

(233 + x) = 80 (4) = 320

x = 320 - 233 = 87 (Ans)

c) to get a A, the average score must be 90

90 = (233 + x) / 4

(233 + x) = 90 (4) = 360

x = 360 - 233 =  127 (Ans)
