 Juan Ramirez made $185.00

For the first 10 suits he made $12.50 each suit, then he made $20 for the additional 3. 

250*.05=12.50

250*.08=20

12.50*10=125

3*20=60

125+60=185.

Anna, Boris, and Clara thought of 1 number each Ana's number increased by 20 is 21 greater than boris's number decreased by 22.
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Clara's number is 42 less than Anna's number

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start this problem out by setting our variables up:

A= Anna's number

B= Boris's number

C= Clara's number

so we can use them to build our equations. We can sepparate the problem into little more understandable pieces of information, let's start with the first piece of information:

- "Ana's number increased by 20"

A+20

- "boris's number decreased by 22"

B-22

- "21 greater than boris's number decreased by 22."

(B-22)+21

- "Ana's number increased by 20 is 21 greater than boris's number decreased by 22."

A+20=(B-22)+21

This is our first important equation here. Let's go with the second part of the problem:

- "Boris's number decreased by 20"

B-20

- "claras number increased by 22"

C+22

- "21 greater than claras number increased by 22"

(C+22)+21

Now the whole thing:

"Boris's number decreased by 20 is 21 greater than claras number increased by 22."

B-20=(C+22)+21

This is our second important equation.

So now we have the following system of equations:

A+20=(B-22)+21

B-20=(C+22)+21

We can now simplify the equations by combining like terms so we get:

Equation 1:

A+20=(B-22)+21

we can get rid of the parenthesis so we get:

A+20=B-22+21

We can subtract a 20 from both sides of the equation so we get:

A=B-22+21-20

We perform the subtractions so we get:

A=B-21

Equation 2:

B-20=(C+22)+21

We get rid of the parenthesis:

B-20=C+22+21

We add a 20 to both sides so we get:

B=C+22+21+20

We can now perform the additions so we get:

B=C+63

And now we can combine the equations. In this case we can substitute equation 2 into equation 1 to get:

A=C+63-21

We combine like terms to get:

A=C+42

We can subtract 42 from both sides to get:

C=A-42

which reads:

Clara's number is 42 less than Anna's number.

A publisher requires 2⁄3 of a page of advertisements for every 5 pages in a magazine. If a magazine has 98 pages, to the nearest
rjkz [21]

Let x be the number of pages of advertisements.

Write a proportion from the table:

\dfrac{2}{3} of a page of advertisment - 5 pages in a magazine

x pages of advertisment - 98 pages in a magazine,

then

\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}}{x}=\dfrac{5}{98}.

Find x:

x=\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}\cdot 98}{5}=\dfrac{196}{15}=13\dfrac{1}{13}.

Answer: 13 whole pages and \dfrac{1}{13} of 14th page are advertisments, so 14 pages contain advertisments.
