Stanley the skunk will save about 15.5 feet.
This problem can be solve with the Pythagorean Theorem. The possible paths that Stanley can take make a right triangle. The legs of the triangle are 25 and 28, and the hypotenuse would be 37.5.
If Stanley went the long way, he would travel 25 + 28 = 53 feet. Taking the short way (hypotenuse) is 53 - 37.5 = 15.5 feet shorter.
Answer:
N=250
Step-by-step explanation:
"twice as many nickels as dimes" means N =2D [eq1]
"collection of nickels and dimes is worth $25" means
5N + 10D = 2500 [eq2]
(To avoid using decimal points, PLZ express everything in cents.)
Substitution (substitute N from eq1 into eq2]:
5(2D) + 10D = 2500
10D + 10D = 2500
20D = 2500
D = 125
N=2D [eq1 again]
N=2(125)
N=250
Check:
Is 5(250) + 10(125) = 2500 ?
1250 + 1250 = 2500 ?
2500 = 2500 ?yes
Answer:
the first one I guess
Step-by-step explanation:
Aiden will receive $1.43 from a $5 bill.
If the state tax is 5.5%, you can use the equation below to solve for the total cost, <em>t</em>.
<em>t</em> = 1.055 (2 × 1.09 + 1.20)
<em>t</em> = 1.055 (2.18 + 1.20)
<em /><em>t </em>= 1.055 (3.38)
<em>t </em>= 3.5659
You can round 3.5659 to $3.57. Finally, you subtract 3.57 from 5 to find the amount of change Aiden will receive, <em>c</em><em />.
<em>c </em>= 5 - 3.57
<em>c </em>= 1.43
640 Diveded by 8 = 80 and 80 diveded by 6 = 13 R2
