Answer:

$p = 1\frac{3}{4}$

Answer D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

$3 \frac{1}{2} + p = 5 \frac{1}{4} \\ \frac{7}{2} + p = \frac{21}{4} \\ p = \frac{21}{4} - \frac{7}{2} \\ p = \frac{21 - 14}{4} \\ p = \frac{7}{4} \\ p = 1 \frac{3}{4}$

hope this helps

brainliest appreciated

good luck! have a nice day!

Answer:

£191.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio, 1 + 4 = 5 parts

Divide 320 by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

320 ÷ 5 = 64 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , thus

4 parts = 4 × 64 = 256

Thus he bought 64 first class and 256 second class.

Cost = (64 × £0.67) + (256 × £0.58)

= £42.88 + 148.48

= £191.36

How do you solve this?

puteri [66]

Answer:

Width: 7

Length: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be found my multiplying the length by the width. We do not know neither the length nor the width. However, we do know that the length is 7 feet longer than the width. Because we do not know the value of either side, let's let $x$ represent the width.

Since the length is 7 feet longer, we can represent the length by $x+7$ .

Now that we have our values for the length and the width we can multiply them together to find our area.

$(x)(x+7)=x^{2} +7x$

Now we have our equation, so we can address the changes made by the original question. The original question states that when 7 is added to both the length and width the area becomes 3 times larger. To do so simply increase each side by 7 by adding 7 to the original values.

$(x+7)(x+14)$

And multiply our area by 3.

$3(x^{2} +7x)$

set these equal to each other to find your new equation.

$(x+7)(x+14)=3(x^{2} +7x)$

Now you need to solve for $x$ . To do this first muliply $(x+7)$ and $(x+14)$ .

$(x+7)(x+14)=\\x^{2} +14x+7x+98=\\x^{2} +21x+98$

Then multiply $3(x^{2} +7x)$

$3(x^{2} +7x)=\\3x^{2} +21x$

Now you can begin solving for $x$ .

$x^{2} +21x+98=3x^{2} +21x$

Subtract $x^{2}$ from both sides.

$21x+98=2x^{2} +21x$

Subtract $21x$ from both sides.

$98=2x^{2}$

Divide by 2.

$49=x^{2}$

And finally take the sqaure root of both sides.

$\sqrt{x^{2} }=\sqrt{49}\\x=7$

Remember, because we are dealing with length, there cannot be negative. So while normally we would get both +7 and -7, in this case we only get +7.

Now that we have the value of $x$ , we can plug it into our original values.

For width we simply get 7.

For length we get 7+7=14

To check our answer we cna multiply 7 by 14 to get 98. Then we can add 7 to our length and width to get 14 and 21. Multiply these together and we get 294. 294 divided by 3 is 98, proving our answer correct.

If you know the 7x8=56 how can you use the Commutative Property of Multiplication to find the product of 8x7?

boyakko [2]

Answer:

The communicative property for multiplication states that the order of the multiplicands and can be swapped and the resulting product stays the same.

A * B = B * A

So if

7*8=56

then the commutative property says

8*7=56 as well since you can swap the order of the terms on the left and not change the result.

This property is true for addition and multiplication. It does not hold for subtraction or division.

Hope that makes sense and helps. (:

The cafeteria serves pizza every 10 days and corn every 4 days. If they are serving pizza and corn today, in how many days will

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Well it would be 100 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they had pizza every ten days and if you add 5 days a week that's 50 days they sell pizza. If your talking corn they sell it every 4 days times 5 days a week that's 20 days of corn. Then you do 50 x 20 and then you get 100 days of pizza and corn, so it would be 100 days before they sell pizza and corn together again!
