Hamburger sells 3 pounds for six dollars if Samantha 510 pounds of hamburger how much will she pay

I believe you meant to say that if Samantha bought 510 pounds of hamburger, how much will she pay?
 
Now from the information we already have, we know that 3 pounds of hamburger will cost 6 dollars. 

The next thing we need to know is how much one pound of hamburger will cost. This will help us calculate  how much the rest will cost.

we now form an equation to assist us.
3 = 6
1= x

(where x represents the unknown price of one pound of hamburger)

Now we must cross-multiply:

3 * x = 6 x 1

3x = 6 

x = 6/3

x = 2

therefore one pound of hamburger costs 2 dollars.

Now, If one pound costs 2 dollars, how about 510 pounds?

We simply multiply:  510 x 2 = 1,020

Therefore  Samantha will pay 1, 020 dollars for 510 pounds of hamburger.

Harry owes the bank money. To repay his debt, he paid \$150$150dollar sign, 150 back to the bank each month. After 101010 months
Sonja [21]


$8,400
Explanation:
Amount repaid each month = $150
Number of Periods for which amount was paid = 10 months
Amount left after 10 months payment = $6900
The total amount paid = $150 × 10 = $1500
Amount left = $6900
Total debt amount:
(Total Amount left + total amount paid )
$(6900 + 1500)

A plane can fly 540 miles with the wind in one hour less than it can fly 480 miles against the wind. The average wind speed is 3
Bess [88]

Answer:

The speed of the plane in still air = 150 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a relative velocity question

Let the velocity of the plane in still air be v

And let the time the plane can fly 480 miles against the wind be t

(Velocity of the plane relative to the wind) = (velocity of plane) - (velocity of wind)

Flying against the wind

(Velocity of plane relative to the wind) = (480/t)

(Velocity of the plane) = v

(Velocity of the wind) = 30 mph

(480/t) = v - 30

t = 480/(v-30) (eqn 1)

Flying with the wind

(Velocity of plane relative to the wind) = 540/(t-1)

(Velocity of the plane) = v

(Velocity of the wind) = -30 mph

540/(t - 1) = v + 30

t - 1 = 540/(v+30) (eqn 2)

Since t is equal in both cases, substitute the value of t in eqn 1 into eqn 2.

[480/(v-30)] - 1 = [540/(v+30)]

Multiply through by (v+30)(v-30)

480(v+30) - [(v+30)(v-30)] = 540(v-30)

480v + 14400 - (v² - 900) = 540v - 16200

480v + 14400 - v² + 900 = 540v - 16200

v² + 540v - 480v - 16200 - 14400 - 900 = 0

v² + 60v - 31500 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation,

v = 150 mph or v = -210 mph

We'll pick the positive answer because of the directions we have established.

Therefore, the speed of the plane in still air = 150 mph

Hope this Helps!!!
