<h3><u>Question:</u></h3>

Juan and raj cut up a banana to put on cereal. juan puts 1/7 of the banana on his bowl of cereal, and raj puts 2/5 ​ of the banana on his bowl of cereal.

what fraction of the banana did juan and raj put on their cereal altogether?

a. 2/35 banana

b. 3/12 banana

c. 3/7 banana

d. 19/35 banana

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

Juan and Raj altogether put 19/35 banana

<h3><u>Solution</u>:</h3>

Given that, Juan and Raj cut up a banana to put on cereal

fraction\ of\ banana\ put\ by\ Juan = \frac{1}{7}\\\\fraction\ of\ banana\ put\ by\ Raj = \frac{2}{5}

We have to find the fraction of banana put by Juan and Raj altogether

This means, we have to add both the fractions

fraction\ of\ banana\ put\ altogether = fraction\ of\ banana\ put\ by\ Juan + fraction\ of\ banana\ put\ by\ Raj

fraction\ of\ banana\ put\ altogether = \frac{1}{7} + \frac{2}{5}\\\\\text{Cross multiply to simplify }\\\\fraction\ of\ banana\ put\ altogether = \frac{1 \times 5 + 2 \times 7}{7 \times 5}\\\\fraction\ of\ banana\ put\ altogether = \frac{5+14}{35}\\\\fraction\ of\ banana\ put\ altogether = \frac{19}{35}

Thus they put \frac{19}{35} of banana by Juan and Raj altogether

Tess needs to buy sand for her children’s playground. The sand costs $8 per ton, and there is a delivery cost of $50 with each o
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

All positive rational numbers greater than 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the delivery cost is fixed per trip, the cost incurred can be represented by the equation

y(x)=8x+50 so in case Tess wants only 1 tone, the cost will be y(x)=8(1)+50=58

Therefore, it's proper to conclude that all numbers in the possible range are positive rational numbers greater than 50
