Answer: 50% are blue.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of skittles in the packet will be represented by 100%. If 27% are red and 23% are green then the combination of the red and green skittles subtracted from 100 will give the percentage of the blue skittles.

27% + 23% = 50%

100% - 50% = 50%

This means half of the skittles in the packet are blue which is 50%.

A ticket for a school musical is $12. There is a 5% transaction fee if the ticket is purchased online. What is the total cost of

gulaghasi [49]

Answer: The cost of a ticket bought online is $12.60.

Step-by-step explanation: First, we need to find the value of the transaction fee. Multiply 12 and 5%.

$12 x 0.05 = $0.60.

Now we have the fee. Lets add the fee with the original cost.

$12 + $0.60 = $12.60.

Therefore, we can conclude that the cost of a ticket that is purchased online is $12.60.

If you multiply the four-digit number abcd by 4, the order of digits will be reversed. That is, abcd x 4=dcba. The digits a, b,

Arisa [49]

The given is that A B C D x 4 = D C B A

Possible values of A are 1 or 2. It can't be 1 since the final result A is in unit place and 1 is not possible when we multiply any number by 4

2 B C D x 4 = D C B 2
It is clear above, that D = 8
2 B C 8 x 4 = 8 C B 2
Possible values of B should be 1 or 2
We try B=1

2 1 C 8 x 4 = 8 C 1 2

To find for C, you can use the equation:

(2000+100+10C+8) x 4 = 8000+100C+10+240C = 432-12 = 420
Therefore,

C = 7
So, the number is 2178.

State whether the equation is true, false or open? 4y+8=6y+3

g100num [7]

Answer:

Open

Explanation:

An open equation is an equation that has variables and CAN be solved

Example: 2x = 4 ......> can be solved giving ......> x = 2

A false equation is one where both sides can NEVER be equal

Example: 15 = 2(3) + 1 ..........> 15 can never be equal to 7

A true equation is one having no variables and both sides are ALWAYS equal

Example: 2(3) + 1 = 2(2) + 3 ........> 7 will always be equal to 7

Now, the given equation is:

4y + 8 = 6y + 3

Let's try to solve is:

4y + 8 = 6y + 3

6y - 4y = 8 - 3

2y = 5

y = 2.5

Therefore, the given equation contains a variable and can be solved which means that it is an open equation

Hope this helps :)

Uche pumps gasoline at a rate of 18\,\dfrac{\text{L}}{\text{min}}18 min L 18, start fraction, start text, L, end text, divided

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Uche's pumping rate is 300 mL/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Uche pumps gasoline at a rate of 18 L/min.

Now, to find Uche's pumping rate in mL/s.

The rate at which Uche pumps gasoline = 18 L/min.

So, to get the pumping rate in mL/s we use convert L/min to mL/s by using conversion factor:

1 L/min = 16.6667 mL/s.

18 L/min = 16.6667 × 18 mL/s.

18L/min = 300 mL/s.

Therefore, Uche's pumping rate is 300 mL/s.
