Answer:

The total amount of his bills is $1400

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason's bank account balance was $300. After paying 1/4 of his bills, his account balance is -$50.

This means that the amount deducted from his account is:

300 - (-50) = 300 + 50 = $350

$350 was deducted from his account.

Hence, 1/4 of his bills is $350.

If the total amount of his bills is x, therefore:

1/4 of x = 350

=> 1/4 * x = 350

x = 4 * 350

x = $1400

The total amount of his bills is $1400.

A snail travels at a rate of 2.58 feet per minute. How gas will he travel in 9 minutes?
alukav5142 [94]
A snail travels at a rate of 2.58 feet PER MINUTE. After 9 minutes, it will travel 2.58 * 9 feet.

2.58 * 9 = 23.22 feet.

The snail travels 23.22 feet in 9 minutes.

You can see that it travels 2.58 feet per minute. In the next minute, it will travel another 2.58 feet. And so on until the 9th minute passes. This is the same as:

2.58 + 2.58 + 2.58 + 2.58 + 2.58 + 2.58 + 2.58 + 2.58 + <span>2.58 = 9 * 2.58 = 23.22</span>

If the ratio of purple marbles to orange marbles is 3 to 8, how many orange marbles will I have if I have 48 purple marbles?
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

You will have 128 orange marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as an equation

Variable x = number of orange marbles

3/8 = 48/x

Cross multiply

3 × x = 8 × 48

3x = 384

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable

3x ÷ 3 = 384 ÷ 3

1x = 128

x = 128

128 orange marbles

Check work:

Substitute the variable x for the answer

3/8 = 48/128

Cross multiply

3 × 128 = 8 × 48

384 = 384

If the numbers equal, the answer is correct
