Answer:

422.50 pesos total

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 ths of 25 = 15

(1/5th of 25 is 5, so we can multiply that number by 3 (3)(5) to get what 3/5ths of 25 are)

So, 15 mangoes were sold at 15.50 pesos

15 × 15.50 = 232.50

(<em>why is this multiplication?  </em>

remember that repeated addition is multiplication. We are adding the cost of each mango (15.50) 15 times, which we could write as 15.50 + 15.50... 15 times, or we could simply multiply the two values :)   )  

Because this vendor has sold 15 of his mangoes, he has 10 left (25 - 15 = 10), so we multiply

10 × 19.00 to find the combined cost:

10 × 19.00 = 190.00

Now, we want to find the total sale (how much money he made in total, from all 25 mangoes)

So, let's add our two values together:

  232.50

+ 190.00

 422. 50

So, the vendor made 422.50 pesos total from his mangoes

hope this helps! have a lovely day :)

Answer: 422.5

Step-by-step explanation: To find how many mangoes were sold at 15.50 pesos, find 3/5 of the total number of mangoes. 3/5 of 25 is 15 because 3 (numerator) times 25 (mangoes) divided by 5 (denominator) is 15. 15 times 15.50 (price) is 232.5 pesos. Next we take the remaining mangoes (10) and multiply it by the price (19) to get 190 pesos. Add the sales and you get 422.5 pesos.

Find the length of the base of a square pyramid if the volume is 128 cubic inches and has a height of 6 inches
Len [333]

Answer: a = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a square based pyramid is given as

\frac{a^{2}h }{3} .

where a is the length of the side and h is the height.

Substituting into the formula , we have

V = \frac{a^{2}h }{3}

128 = a^{2}h /3

384= a^{2} X 6

Divide through by 6

384/6 = a^{2}

64 = a^{2}

Therefore :

a = \sqrt{\frac{64}{1} }

a = 8
