Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Present age of Barry = b
Present age of sister = s
Barry is 8 years older than his sister means if we subtract 8 from present age of Barry both will be of equal age
s=b-8 ............(1)
In 3 years means we have to add 3 in their present age
s+3=b+3
then
he will be twice as old as
2(s+3)=(b+3
2s+6=b+3
2s=b+3-6
2s=b-3...............(2)
Put the value of s from (1) to (2), we have
2(b-8)=b-3
2b-16=b-3
2b-b=-3+16
b=13
Put the value of b in (1)
s=13-8
s=5
Present age of Barry = b = 13
Present age of sister = s = 5
A general equation to use for this situation is y = mx + b.
For this question, we can assume that y is total cost, m is cost per balloon, x is the amount of balloons, and b as the service fee; so we can set the equation up:
y = (4.50)x + 12
And we can further plug in the total cost to find the number of balloons purchased for the party:
79.50 = (4.50)x + 12
Now we can solve for x (number of balloons):
67.50 = (4.50)x
x = 15
The total number of balloons purchased for the party is 15.
Answer:
20 years
Step-by-step explanation:
20 is the lowest common multiple of 5,4,2
1. 538 - 247 = ?
2. 8 - 7 = 1
3. You can't subtract 3 and 4, so you have to take number from 5 (turning it into a 4) and then you add a 1 right next to 3 (which makes it 13;13 - 4 = 9
4. 4 - 2 = 2
538 - 247 = 291
So the answer is 291.
Count the total number of objects. That is the denominator, which goes under the line. Then, only count the stars. That number is the numerator, which goes on top.
