"Mike has 3 pies and half of one (here we have the mixed number 3 (1/2), If he sells each pie for $4. How much money did he can win?"

this is the number of pies that he has times 4 dollars:

M = (3 + (1/2))*$4 = 3*$4 + (1/2)*$4 = $12 + $2 = $14

If the sides of two similar triangles are in the ratio of 3:5, find the ratio of their areas.

Kazeer [188]

Ratio of areas of similar triangles is 9 : 25.

Solution:

Given data:

Ratio of sides of two similar triangles = 3 : 5

To find the ratio of areas of the triangles:

We know that,

<em>In two triangles are similar, then the ratio of their area is equal to the square of the ratio of their sides.</em>

$$\text{Ratio of areas} = \frac{\text{Area of triangle 1}}{\text{Area of triangle 2} }$

$$=\left(\frac{3}{5}\right) ^2$

$$=\frac{9}{25}$

Ratio of areas of similar triangles is 9 : 25.

A clothing store has a going-out-of business sale. They are selling pants for $8.99 and shirts for $3.99. You can spend as much

astraxan [27]

Answer:

Let x represents the number of pants and y represents the number of shirts.

As per the statement:

Since, a clothing store are selling pants for $8.99 and shirts for $3.99

then;

total number of Pants cost is, $8.99x and total number of Shirt cost is, $3.99

Also, it is given that: You can spend as much as $60 and want to buy at least two pairs of pants.

then, we have the equation of inequality;

$8.99x + 3.99y \leq 60$ ;......[1] where x, y are natural number.

x-intercept:

Substitute the value y= 0 in [1] and solve for x;

$8.99x + 3.99(0) \leq 60$

$8.99x \leq 60$

Simplify:

$x \leq 6.667$

Since, x is in natural number;

$x \leq 7$

Similarly.

For y-intercept:

Substitute the value x= 0 in [1] and solve for x;

$8.99(0) + 3.99y \leq 60$

$3.99y \leq 60$

Simplify:

$y \leq 15.037$

$y \leq 15$

Therefore, we have

$8.99x + 3.99y \leq 60$ ;

$2\leq x\leq 7$ and $0\leq y\leq 15$
