A shelter has enough food to feed an average of 80 hungry people a day for 14 days. If an average of 32 people are at the shelte

egoroff_w [7]

Multiply 80 by 14 to get how many total people they can feed.

80 times 14 is 1120.

Now, divide 1120 by 32 to get how many days the food will last if 32 people come every day.

1120/32 = 35.

The answer is B, 35 days

Marty made a $220 bank deposit using $10 bills and $5 bills. She gave the teller a total of 38 bills, how many $5 bills were in

Luda [366]

ANSWER: 32 five-dollar bills

======

EXPLANATION:

Let x be number of $5 bills

Let y be number of $10 bills

Since we have total of 38 bills, we must have the sum of x and y be 38

x + y = 38 (I)

Since the total amount deposited is $220, we must have the sum of 5x and 10y be 220 (x and y are just the "number of" their respective bills, so we multiply them by their value to get the total value):

5x + 10y = 220 (II)

System of equations:

$\left\{ \begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ 5x + 10y &= 220 && \text{(II)} \end{aligned} \right.$

Divide both sides of equation (II) by 5 so our numbers become smaller

$\left\{ \begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ x + 2y &= 44 && \text{(II)} \end{aligned} \right.$

Rearrange (I) to solve for y so that we can substitute into (II)

$\begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ y &= 38 - x \end{aligned}$

Substituting this into equation (II) for the y:

$\begin{aligned} x + 2y &= 44 && \text{(II)} \\ x + 2(38 - x) &= 44\\ x + 76 - 2x &= 44 \\ -x &= -32 \\ x &= 32 \end{aligned}$

We have 32 five-dollar bills

======

If we want to finish off the question, use y = 38 - x to figure out number of $10 bills

$y = 38 - 32 = 6$

32 five-dollar bills and 6 ten-dollar bills

Alexxandr [17]

Answer: Incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Gavin and his three friends wants to share $\frac{1}{3}$ of cake equally.

So, there are 4 members to distribute the cake

Each member will get

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{3}}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3\times 4}=\dfrac{1}{12}$

So, each member get one-twelvefth of the given cake.

Hence, Gavin is incorrect.
