Mathematics

5 0

So, there are 1, 5, 10, 25 and 50 cent coins.

The most logical combination would be a dime and a quarter (10 + 25 = 35) but it is said that "one of the coins is not a dime".

But, there is something many people don't notice. It says that one of the coins isn't a dime, but the other one can be a dime. So, the two coins are a quarter and a dime.

Hope it helped,

What is the volume of the prism?

mezya [45]

Answer:

40 $\frac{5}{8}$ $cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is a rectangular prism, so the formula would be Volume = length x width x height.

length = 6 $\frac{1}{2}$ cm

width = 2 $\frac{1}{2}$ cm

height = 2 $\frac{1}{2}$ cm

If you plug everything you have in the problem into the volume equation, you would get : Volume = 6 $\frac{1}{2}$ cm x 2 $\frac{1}{2}$ cm x 2 $\frac{1}{2}$ cm.

Without a calculator, I would first turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions.

6 $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{13}{2}$

2 $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{5}{2}$

Volume = $\frac{13}{2}$ x $\frac{5}{2}$ x $\frac{5}{2}$

When you multiply everything together you should get $\frac{325}{8}$ .

As a mixed number, that would be 40 $\frac{5}{8}$ $cm^{3}$ .

Catie earned $3,511.95 last month. She used 3/5 of her earnings to pay her bills. With the remaining money she bought two skirts

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

$Amount \ left = 1345.81$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Total \ earning = T= $3,511.95$

$Spent \ on \ Bills = B = \frac{3}{5} T = 2107.17$

$Remaining \ amount = R = T-B = $3,511.95 - 2107.17\\R = 1404.78$

$Spent \ on \ Shopping = S = 2($21.99) + $14.99\\S = 58.97$

$Amount \ left = L = R - S\\Amount \ left = 1404.78 - 58.97\\Amount \ left = 1345.81$

A rectangular prism has volume 4,800 cubic yards, length 20 yards, and height 40 yards. Find its width, in yards.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: 6 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the length and the height to get 800. You know now that 800 times the width will be your volume, 4800. To find the width, divide the volume by 800, which is the length times the height. Check your work by doing 40 times 20 times 6. You get 4800, which is your volume, which means your correct!
