Bella can cut 24 pieces of ribbon from this long strip

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that Bella has 85 feet of ribbons in total

She needs identical strips of ribbon measuring 3.5 feet each

To find: Number of peices of ribbon can she cut from long strip

Number of peices of ribbon can she cut from long strip can be calculated by dividing the total feet of ribbon she has by length of identical strips she needs

<em><u>Mathematically written as:</u></em>

\text { Number of Strip that can be cut }=\frac{\text { Total length of ribbon }}{\text { Length of each piece }}

\begin{array}{l}{\text { Number of Strip that can be cut }=\frac{85}{3.5}} \\\\ {\text { Number of Strip that can be cut }=24.28 \approx 24}\end{array}

Hence , the number of strip can be 24 each of size 3.5 feet

Can someone explain number five??
vazorg [7]

Remark

You have 40 dollars to spend.

<em><u>AT & T</u></em>

Let the number of minutes = M

A. 20 + 0.10*M ≤ 40  

B. 20 + 0.10*M ≤ 40     Subtract 20 from both sides.

20 - 20 + 0.10M ≤ 40 - 20

0.10M ≤ 20                   Divide by 0.10

0.10M/0.10 ≤20/0.10

M≤ 200 minutes.

Verizon

A

15 + ( M ≥ 300)*0.50 ≤ 40

B

15 + ( M ≥ 300)*0.50 ≤ 40                   Subtract 15 from both sides.

(M≥300)*0.50 ≤ 25

(M≥300) ≤ 50 minutes.

This last one is a good deal more complicated. What it means is that if you are under 300 minutes, you pay only 15 dollars. If you are over 300 minutes, you can only go 50 more minutes before over extend your budget.

Part  C

These are alike in that they have a flat rate associated with them and both have a budgeted amount that has to be obeyed.

They are quite different in what they offer. The second plan is for people who use their cell phone quite a bit. For people like us (emergency only), the first plan is much better. We would always be within our 40 dollar limit. We don't use our cell but maybe 10 - 15 minutes a month on average.

Part D

I can't answer this for you. It depends on where you live and who offers you the best coverage. I would pick the first one, but that doesn't mean that it would be best for you.

Mr. Jones purchased two sodas.
kondaur [170]

Answer:

  the prices were $0.05 and $1.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'a' and 'b' represent the costs of the two sodas. The given relations are ...

  a + b = 1.10 . . . . the total cost of the sodas was $1.10

  a - b = 1.00 . . . . one soda costs $1.00 more than the other one

__

Adding these two equations, we get ...

  2a = 2.10

  a = 1.05 . . . . . divide by 2

  1.05 -b = 1.00 . . . . . substitute for a in the second equation

  1.05 -1.00 = b = 0.05 . . . add b-1 to both sides

The prices of the two sodas were $0.05 and $1.05.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

This is a "sum and difference" problem, in which you are given the sum and the difference of two values. As we have seen here, <em>the larger value is half the sum of the sum and difference</em>: a = (1+1.10)/2 = 1.05. If we were to subtract one equation from the other, we would find <em>the smaller value is half the difference of the sum and difference</em>: b = (1.05 -1.00)/2 = 0.05.

This result is the general solution to sum and difference problems.
