Answer:

Peggy is correct, their total bakes sale = $396.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Using estimation to help Peggy explain why Leslie reasoning is incorrect.

From the question we can see that:

First bake sale they made = $79.35

4 more bake sales making the same amount = 4 × $79.35

The total amount they would make from the bake sales =

$79.35 + (4 × $79.35)

= $396.75

Peggy was right. Leslie's reasoning was incorrect.

10% of 65 pls help and explain the steps to get total answer​
sergij07 [2.7K]
10% of 65
Of means multiply
=0.1 x 65
=6.5

Or you can use another way which is (part/whole) *(percent/100)

Whole=65
Percent=10
And part(part of 65)=unknown

(X/65)* (10/100)
Cross multiply
x= 6.5

So 10% of 65 is 6.5

Problema Solution

You have 800 feet of fencing and you want to make two fenced in enclosures by splitting one enclosure in half. What are the largest dimensions of this enclosure that you could build?

Answer provided by our tutors

Make a drawing and denote:


x = half of the length of the enclosure


2x = the length of the enclosure


y = the width of the enclosure


P = 800 ft the perimeter


The perimeter of the two enclosures can be expressed P = 4x + 2y thus


4x + 3y = 800


Solving for y:

........

........

y = 800/3 - 4x/3


The area of the two enclosure is A = 2xy.


Substituting y = 800/3 - 4x/3 in A = 2xy we get


A = 2x(800/3 - 4x/3)


A =1600x/3 - 8x^2/3


We need to find the x for which the parabolic function A = (- 8/3)x^2 + (1600/3)x has maximum: 


x max = -b/2a, a = (-8/3), b = 1600/3


x max = (-1600/3)/(2*(-8/3))


x max = 100 ft


y = 800/3 - 4*100/3


y = 133.33 ft


2x = 2*100


2x = 200 ft

Kyla used 550 grams of wool to knit a sweater, a hat, and a scarf. For the hat she used 5 times less wool than the sweater and 5
Brrunno [24]
This is the concept of algebra, to calculate the proportion of wool in each item we proceed as follows;
Let the amount of wool used for hat be x
amount of wool in sweater will be 5x
the amount of wool used in scarf will be x-5
 therefore the total amount of wool will be:
x+5x+(x-5)=550
x+5x+x-5=550
7x-5=550
7x=550+5
7x=555
hence;
x=555/7
x=79
the amount used in hat x=79g
amount used in sweater 5x=395g
amount used in scarf=79-5=74g
