Hello!

Martin buys more fruit, because 6/3 is greater than 4/3. You can check which fraction is greater by converting it into a decimal, as decimals are sometimes easier to compare. 

4 / 3 = 1.3 (Repeating)

6 / 3 = 2

As you can see, 2 is greater than 1.3 Repeating, so 6/3 pounds are greater than 4/3 pounds.

Martin bought more fruit. If both fractions have a denomiator of 3, and Jack buys 4/3, and Martin buys 6/3, it's obviously Martin. 6 is more than 4. We don't have to worry about the denominator.

Elvira’s cafeteria has cartons of milk that are typical of school lunch. The milk supplier charges $0.35 per carton of milk, in
FromTheMoon [43]
Write the equation out: (total cost: 0.35C[per carton] + 75[delivery charge]) ≤ 500. Subtract 75 on both sides and it would be: 0.35C ≤ 425. Divide 0.35 on both sides and you'll get C ≤ 1214. Therefore, the maximum # of cartons that Elvira can buy is 1214 cartons of milk.

Can you solve for y plz
vredina [299]
Solve the top equation for x and then substitute that into the bottom equation and solve for y:
Top equation: subtract 4 from both sides to get x = y - 4
Substitution and simplify:
y = 4(y - 4) - 10
y = 4y - 16 - 10
y = 4y - 26
-3y = -26
y = 26/3 or 8 1/3 or 8.333 (those are all the same but in different forms)

Answer: It represents the area of the two circular sides ("lids")

Explanation:

Imagine you made a cylinder out of 3 pieces of paper. The cylinder can be decomposed into two circular shapes (radius r) and one rectangular piece with two side lengths: one is "h", the other has to be long enough to go around each of the disks, so it has to be 2*pi*r long.

So the term 2*pi*r*h is the area of the rectangular piece and pi*r^2 is the area of each of the "lids" Since there are two of those, the term 2*pi*r^2 represents the area of the bottom and top lids.

There is a vendor at a carnival selling bags of cotton candy. Each bag of cotton candy has the same cost. She starts each day wi
umka21 [38]

Answer:

The cost of each cotton candy bag is $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let, the vendor has x dollar at the starting of each day.

Let, the cost of each cotton candy bag is y.

Now when she sells a total of 12 bags, she has $128.

x+12y=128  .....(1)

After she sells a total of 20 bags, she has $160.

x+20y=160  ....(2)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2.

(x+20y)-(x+12y)=160-128

8y=32

y=4

Hence, the cost of each cotton candy bag is $4.
