Let t=original amount of soup

8/15 of t is 140
“Of” means multiply, “is” means equal to
Therefore
8/15t=140
t=140*15/8
t=262.5

Hope this helped :)

Sales Daria sells televisions. She earns a fixed amount for each television and an additional $25 if the buyer gets an extended

aliina [53]

Answer: Daria earns a fixed amount of $55 for each television.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a represent the fixed amount that Daria earns for each television.
Daria earns a fixed amount for each television and an additional $25 if the buyer gets an extended warranty. This means that if she sells b televisions with extended warranties, the total amount that she would earn is
ab + 25b
If Daria sells 14 televisions with extended warranties,she earns $1,120. Therefore,
14a + 14 × 25 = 1120
14a + 350 = 1120
14a = 1120 - 350
14a = 770
a = 770/14
a = 55

If 5 + 20 times 2 Superscript 2 minus 3 x Baseline = 10 times 2 Superscript negative 2 x Baseline + 5, what is the value of x? –

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

<h3>Option D) 3 is correct</h3><h3>Therefore the value of x is 3</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is $5+20\times (2)^{2-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}+5$

<h3>To find the value of x :</h3>

First solving the given equation we have,

$5+20\times (2)^{2-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}+5$

$5+20\times (2)^{2-3x}-5=10\times (2)^{-2x}+5-5$

$20\times (2)^{2-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}$

$20\times (2)^2.(2)^{-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}$

$20\times 4.(2)^{-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}$

$80(2)^{-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}$

$\frac{80}{10}(2)^{-3x}=\frac{10\times (2)^{-2x}}{10}$

$8(2)^{-3x}=(2)^{-2x}$

$\frac{(2)^{-3x}}{(2)^{-2x}}=\frac{1}{8}$

$(2)^{-3x}.(2)^{2x}=\frac{1}{2^3}$ ( by using the property $\frac{1}{a^{-m}}=a^m$ )

$2^{-3x+2x}=\frac{1}{2^3}$ ( by using the property $a^m.a^n=a^{m+n}$ )

$2^{-x}=\frac{1}{2^3}$

$\frac{1}{2^x}=\frac{1}{2^3}$ ( by using the property $a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$ )

Since bases are same so powers are same

Therefore we can equate the powers we get x=3

<h3>Therefore the value of x is 3</h3><h3>Option D) 3 is correct</h3>

A robot can complete up to 8 tasks in 5/6 hour. each task takes the same amount of time.

storchak [24]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} tasks&hours\\ \cline{1-2}&\\ 8&\frac{5}{6}\\\\ 1&h \end{array}\implies \cfrac{8}{1}=\cfrac{~~\frac{5}{6}~~}{h}\implies 8=\cfrac{~~\frac{5}{6}~~}{\frac{h}{1}}\implies 8=\cfrac{5}{6}\cdot \cfrac{1}{h} \\\\\\ 8=\cfrac{5}{6h}\implies 48h=5\implies h=\cfrac{5}{48}\\\\[-0.35em] \rule{31em}{0.25pt}$

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} tasks&hours\\ \cline{1-2}&\\ 8&\frac{5}{6}\\\\ t&1 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{8}{t}=\cfrac{~~\frac{5}{6}~~}{1}\implies \cfrac{8}{t}=\cfrac{5}{6}\implies 48=5t \\\\\\ \cfrac{48}{5}=t\implies 9\frac{3}{5}=t$
