Answer:
150 pennies were lost altogether
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the initial number of pennies owned by Dante be x pennies
Let the initial number of pennies owned by Mia be y pennies
Mathematically ;
x + y = 350 •••••••(i)
So after losing half, dante will have x/2 pennies left.
Mia lost 1/3 so she will have 2/3y left
So after all the losses, they both had equal amount of pennies
This means that;
x/2 = 2y/3
Cross multiply;
3x = 4y •••••••(ii)
Let’s solve both equations simultaneously;
From i , x = 350-y
Substitute this into equation ii
3(350-y) = 4y
1050-3y = 4y
7y = 1050
y = 1050/7
y = 150
since x = 350-y
x = 350-150 = 200
Now Dante loss x/2 = 200/2 = 100
Mia lost 1/3y = 1/3 * 150 = 50
Total pennies lost = 100 + 50 = 150
Let n be unknown number, then 1/5 of this number is 1/5n. When you add these two numbers, you get

You know that this sum is equal to 24, so

1. Multiply this equation by 5:

2. Solve it:

Answer: n=20, correct choice is B.
Answer:
We know that the multiplicative rate of change of a function is the number by which each next term of an exponential function is increasing or decreasing. We can find multiplicative rate of change by dividing any term of the function by its previous term.
Answer:
3.8×10^7= 38000000
1.9×10^6= 1900000
38000000÷1900000= 20
