Answer:

The price of one colored pencil was $0.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the price of 1 colored pencil:

We know he bought 5 colored pencils and 3 notebooks and had 2 dollars left over, meaning he spent 8, so we can write out:

5p + 3(1.5) = 8

That becomes:

5p + 4.5 = 8

Isolate p by moving 4.5 to the right:

5p = 3.5

Divide by 5

p = 0.7

A gardener is planting two types of trees:
lara [203]

It will take exactly 4 years for these trees to be the same height

Step-by-step explanation:

A gardener is planting two types of trees:

  • Type A is 3 feet tall and grows at a rate of 7 inches per year
  • Type B is 5 feet tall and grows at a rate of 1 inches per year

We need to find in how many years it will take for these trees to be the

same height

Assume that it will take x years for these trees to be the same height

The height of a tree = initial height + rate of grow × number of years

Type A:

∵ The initial height = 3 feet

∵ 1 foot = 12 inches

∴ The initial height = 3 × 12 = 36 inches

∵ The rate of grows = 7 inches per year

∵ The number of year = x

∴ h_{A} = 36 + (7) x

∴ h_{A} = 36 + 7 x

Type B:

∵ The initial height = 5 feet

∴ The initial height = 5 × 12 = 60 inches

∵ The rate of grows = 1 inches per year

∵ The number of year = x

∴ h_{B} = 60 + (1) x

∴ h_{B} = 60 + x

Equate h_{A} and h_{B}

∴ 36 + 7 x = 60 + x

- Subtract x from both sides

∴ 36 + 6 x = 60

- Subtract 36 from both sides

∴ 6 x = 24

- Divide both sides by 6

∴ x = 4

∴ The two trees will be in the same height in 4 years

It will take exactly 4 years for these trees to be the same height

A roller coaster has four cars each with the same number of seats. these are 21 passengers seated in the roller coaster, but 3 s
belka [17]

Given:

Number of passengers seated in the roller coaster = 21

Empty seats = 3

Number of cars in roller coaster = 4 (each with the same number of seats)

To find:

An equation that can be used to determine the number of seats in each car.

Solution:

Let s be the number of seats in each car.

Total number of seats in 4 cars = 4s

Using the given information,

Total number of seats = Occupied seated + Empty seats

                                   = 21 + 3

                                   = 24

Now, the required equation is

4s=24

Therefore, the required equation is 4s=24.

Divide both sides by 4.

s=\dfrac{24}{4}

s=6

Therefore, the number of seats in each car is 6.

inn [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

⅔ + ¾

→ make the denominator equal of both the fraction

= 2/3 × 4/4 = 8/12

= 3/4 × 3/3 = 9/12

hence,

8/12 + 9/12

= 8 + 9/12 = 17/12

\frac{17}{12} or \:  1  \frac{5}{12}
