A certain kind of stapler holds 210 staples when fully loaded. A box of staples for this kind of stapler contains 5,000 staples.

If you use a full box of staples and fully load as many empty staplers as possible, how many staples will be left in the box?

This is simple, just divide 5,000 by 210

5000 ÷ 210 = 23.809

23.809 = 23.81

23.81 = 23.8

23.8 = 23

Thats for staplers being full, now for how many is left

It would be 170, for that, you have to subtract:

5000 - (210 · 23) = 170

5000 - 4830 = 170

170

Your answer would be:

23 staplers would be full and 170 staples were left

A stadium has 50,000 seats. Seats sell for $28 in Section A, $24 in Section B, and $20 in Section C. The number of seats in Sect
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Section A holds 25,000 seats, section B holds 14,500 seats and section C holds 10,500 seats.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given you can write the following equations:

A+B+C=50,000 (1)

28A+24B+20C=1,258,000 (2)

A=B+C (3)

A= number of seats in section A

B= number of seats in section B

C= number of seats in section C

You can replace (3) in (1) and (2) to get two equations:

B+C+B+C=50,000

2B+2C=50000

28(B+C)+24B+20C=1,258,000

28B+24B+28C+20C=1,258,000

52B+48C=1,258,000

The two equations are:

2B+2C=50000 (4)

52B+48C=1,258,000 (5)

You can isolate B in (4):

2B=50,000-2C

B=(50,000/2)-(2C/2)

B=25,000-C

Now, you can replace B in (5):

52(25,000-C)+48C=1,258,000

1,300,000-52C+48C=1,258,000

1,300,000-1,258,000=4C

42,000=4C

C=42,000/4

C=10,500

Now, you can replace the value of C in B=25,000-C:

B=25,000-10,500

B=14,500

Finally, you can replace the values of B and C in A=B+C to find A:

A=14,500+10,500

A=25,000

According to this, the answer is that section A holds 25,000 seats, section B holds 14,500 and section C holds 10,500.

Betsy is saying for a bird cage. She saves $1 the first week, $3 the second week, $9 the third week, and so on. All together how
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Betsy will save $121 in 5 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that Betsy's savings are 3 times the saving of her last week. We can see that this is an geometric sequence as 1,3,9,..

To find the sum of our geometric sequence we will use S_{n}=a\cdot \frac{1-r^{n}}{1-r}, where n is number of terms we are taking sum of, a is first term of sequence and r is common ratio of the sequence.

S_{5}=1\cdot \frac{1-3^{5}}{1-3}

S_{5}=\frac{1-243}{-2}

S_{n}=\frac{-242}{-2}=121

Therefore, Betsy will save $121 in 5 weeks.

HURRY PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deffense [45]

Answer:FH=8\sqrt{51}

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a special right triangle that has 30, 60 and 90 degress corners. Because it is a special triangle, it also has side length values which always consistent relationship with one another.

Side opposite the 30° angle: x

Side opposite the 90° angle: 2x

So, FG=8\sqrt{17}

Then use Pythagorean theorem. c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}

(16\sqrt{17} )^{2} =FH^{2} +(8\sqrt{17} )^{2}

FH^{2} =4352-1088

FH=\sqrt{3264}

FH=8\sqrt{51}
