Dakota and Christine went shopping. Dakota bought two scarves and one hat for $13 Christine bought one scarves and two hats for

White raven [17]

One scarf=s
One hat=h

2s+h=13
s+2h=14

h=13-2s
(plug that into the other equation)

s+2(13-2s)=14
s+26-4s=14
26-3s=14
-3s=-12
s=4

One hat=$5
One scarf=$4
5+4=9
Price of one hat AND one scarf is $9

Jake drove 66 miles in 2/5 hour. what's the unit rate in miles per hour?

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

He was going about 26 miles an hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a fraction equal to

66 miles ÷ 2.5 hours

We want a unit rate where

1 is in the denominator,

so we divide top and bottom by 2.5

66 miles ÷ 2.5

2.5 hours ÷ 2.5

26.4 miles

1 hour

26.4 miles

hour

= 26.4 miles per hour

The number of items (N) that can be purchased for a given amount of money is inversely proportional to the cost (C) of an item.

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

436 items

Step-by-step explanation:

When a quantity A is inversely proportional to another quantity B, we can write:

$A=\frac{k}{B}$

Where k is the proportionality constant [that we need to find]

For this problem, we can write the ratio as:

$N=\frac{k}{C}$

Now given N = 480 and C = 4.90, we first find k:

$N=\frac{k}{C}\\480=\frac{k}{4.90}\\k=4.90*480\\k=2352$

Now, as second step, we need this time to find N, when

C = 5.40

Note, we know know k = 2352, so we find N:

$N=\frac{k}{C}\\N=\frac{2352}{5.40}\\N=435.55$

Rounding to next whole number, we have 436 items
