You would have 10 muffins left because 1/3 of 15 is 5 so 15-5=10

If you split 15 muffins into 3 groups, youre going to have 5 muffins in each group. so if you give a friend 1 out of the 3 groups, youre going to have 10 muffins left.

You have invested $5000 in stocks and bonds. The interest you earned on the stocks was 7%. The interest you earned on the bonds

Sphinxa [80]

Money invested S + B = $5000 - - - - (a)
Money earned can be represented in S & B as follows:
0.07*S + 0.14*B =$500 - - - - (b)

Equations a & b are two equations with two unknowns.

From equation a:
S = 5000 - B
Replace S in equation b
0.07*(5000 - B) + 0.14*B =$500
0.07B = 500 - 350 = $150
B = 150/0.07 = $2142.86
S = 5000 - 2142.86 = $2857.14

Good luck

You are traveling by car from Covington, GA to Savannah, GA – a distance of about 240 miles. You are moving at 60 miles per hour

Degger [83]

Answer:

Speed = Distance/Time. so if you rearrange this it means that you get Time = Distance/Speed. Therefore 240/60 = 4 then you just think of doing miles(distance)/Miles per hour(speed) which leaves you with 4 hours which=C

Step-by-step explanation:

Sometimes to make it easier i use a triangle from this equation, you cover up what one you want and then you do what it says. If you cover up distance then you are left with speed x time. Likewise if you cover up speed. Speed = Distance / Time.
