Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, put together the information we have. Total = 121. Emily has 40% more than Carl, and Carl has 60% more than Antony.

2. Next, set each person as a variable. Antony = x. Carl = 1.6x. Emily = 1.4 times 1.6x.

3. Next, form an equation using these variables.

    x + 1.6x + (1.4 x 1.6x) = 121

    x + 1.6x + 2.24x = 121

    4.84x = 121

    x = 25

4. Finally, plug in x to our previous variables in step #2 to find the number of stamps Emily and Carl have.

<u>Antony</u>: x = 25 stamps

<u>Carl:</u> 1.6x = 40 stamps

<u>Emily</u>: 1.4 times 1.6x = 56 stamps

By the way, is this for RSM? If so, I am working on that problem right now and I searched up the solution but couldn't find it, so I stumbled upon this. I hope this helped!

Well 32 x 405 is 12,960, but it ask for 2 numbers added to make 12,960 so the answer is 810 + 12,150 which is 2 products that add up to the answer 12,960.

Hello! Please help. <br> "Find the error &amp; explain why it is wrong."
mixas84 [53]

Answer: Step E

Step-by-step explanation:

The error is in the last step. In Step D, we see that we're supposed to subtract the second part from the first part. We also see we have the terms 2x-8 in the numerator on the right. Since we're subtracting, the expression should actually be -2x +8. 3 -2x +8 should be -2x +11 which is not the numerator in Step E so the last step is wrong.
