sold than hamburgers. How many hamburgers were sold on Wednesday?

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call the hamburgers h and the cheeseburgers c.

h+c=500

c=h-50

Let's plug this value for c into the first equation to solve for h.

h+h-50=500

2h-50=500

Add 50 to both sides.

2h=550

Divide both sides by 2.

h=275

Therefore, 275 hamburgers were sold on Wednesday.

Have a wonderful day! :D

1. Twenty-four people go on holidays. If 15 go swimming, 12 go fishing, and 6 do neither,
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

9 people went swimming and fishing.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question building a Venn Diagram.

We have that:

In total, there are 24 people.

6 do neither of these activities.

x go both swimming and fishing.

15 go swimming. This included those who go both swimming and fishing, so for the addition, we consider those who only go swimming, which is given by 15 - x.

12 go fishing, of which 12 - x only go fishing, by the same logic as above.

How many go swimming and fishing?

This in x

Adding all(neither, both swimming and fishing, only swimming, only fishing), we get 24. So

6 + x + 15 - x + 12 - x = 24

33 - x = 24

x = 9

9 people went swimming and fishing.

The parking space shown on the right has an area of 216 ft². A custom truck has rectangular dimensions of 12.1 ft by 3.6 ft. Can
mart [117]

Answer:

• Yes, the area of the truck is less than the area of the parking space.

,

• The missing dimension of the parking space is 12 ft.

Explanation:

The area of the parking space = 216 ft²

Part A

The dimensions of the custom truck = 12.1 ft by 3.6 ft.

To determine if the truck can fit into the space, we calculate the area of the truck.

\begin{gathered} \text{Area of the truck}=12.1\times3.6 \\ =43.56ft^2 \end{gathered}

Since the area of the truck is less than the area of the parking space, the truck will fit into the space.

Part B

The parking space is in the shape of a parallelogram.

\text{Area of a parallelogram=Base x Perpendicular Height}

Given:

• Area = 216 ft²

,

• Base = b ft

,

• Perpendicular Height = 18 ft

We then have:

\begin{gathered} 216=b\times18 \\ 18b=216 \\ b=\frac{216}{18} \\ b=12\text{ ft} \end{gathered}

The missing dimension of the parking space is 12 feet.
