68% = 7.5 hours

1% = 7.5 ÷ 68 = 0.11 hour (nearest hundredth)

100% =0.11 x 100 = 11 hours

Answer: 11 hours

Need help with math question

Answer:

7 18-inch wreaths

26 22-inch wreaths

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number of 18-inch wreaths is x and the number of 22-inch wreaths is y.

We know that the number of 22-inch wreaths sold was 5 more than 3 times the number of 18-inch wreaths sold. We can write this into the expression as:

y = 5 + 3x

We also know that each 18-inch wreath was $20 and each 22-inch wreath was $25. The total cost was $790, so:

20x + 25y = 790

Now, let's substitute 5 + 3x in for y in the second equation:

20x + 25y = 790

20x + 25(5 + 3x) = 790

20x + 125 + 75x = 790

95x + 125 = 790

95x = 665

x = 7

Plug this value into y = 5 + 3x to find y:

y = 5 + 3x

y = 5 + 3 * 7 = 5 + 21 = 26

So, 7 18-inch wreaths were sold and 26 22-inch wreaths were sold.

Translate the sentence into an equation.

Andreas93 [3]

<h2>Translating Sentences into Equations</h2>

A key part of this is recognizing certain words to change into operations or numbers:

<em>quotient</em> = divide
<em>three more</em> = add 3
<em>'a/the number' </em>= use a variable (in this case, it's <em>w</em>)

<h2>Solving the Question</h2>

We're given:

Three more than the quotient of a number and 7 equals 6
⇒ 'the quotient of a number and 7' tells us we divide <em>w</em> by 7:
Three more than $\dfrac{w}{7}$ equals 6
⇒ 'three more than' means we add 3 to the fraction:
$\dfrac{w}{7}+3$ equals 6
$\dfrac{w}{7}+3=6$

<h2>Answer</h2>

$\dfrac{w}{7}+3=6$

There are 8 members on the student council. A committee consisting of 2 members is to be made. How many different committees are

wlad13 [49]

Answer

28 committees

Explanation:

The total number of members = 8

We want to make a committee of 2 members

We will be applying the combination concept

$\begin{gathered} \text{let n = 8 and r = 2} \\ ^nC_r\text{ = }\frac{n!}{(n\text{ - r)!r!}} \\ ^8C_2\text{ = }\frac{8!}{(8\text{ - 2)!2!}} \\ ^8C_2\text{ = }\frac{8!}{6!2!} \\ ^{8_2}C\text{ = }\frac{8\text{ x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1}}{6\text{ x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1! 2 x 1}} \\ ^{8_{}}C_2\text{ = }\frac{8\cdot\text{ 7}}{2} \\ ^{8_{}}C_2\text{ = 28 committees} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, 28 committees can be formed
