Keiko has a total of $ 5200 comma which she has invested in two accounts. The larger account is $ 900 greater than the smaller a
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Keiko has a total of $5200

x is the amount of money in larger account

y is the amount of money in smaller account

x - y = $900

and x + y = $5200

<u>This creates two simultaneous equations:</u>

x - y = $900 ... (i)

x + y = $5200 ... (ii)

Adding (i) and (ii) :

2x = $6100 , x = $3050

y = x - $900 = $3050 - $900 = $2150

The amount of money in larger account (x) = $3050

The amount of money in smaller account (y) = $2150

A sand box measures 10 feet long by 8 feet wide by 1 foot deep what area of land must be clearest
Andrei [34K]

Answer: 80 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Your question was not very clear, but I'm assuming you need to find the volume of the sandbox.

To find volume, you need to multiply height by width by length, which is h*l*w.

Height: 1 foot

Width: 8 feet

Length: 10 feet

V=8*10*1=80 cubic feet.

Susan was supposed to use 5/4 of a cup of butter
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

a.\ \dfrac{3}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see the fractions \frac{5}{4} and \frac{3}{4} of cups.

It can be seen that denominator has 4 i.e. the fraction \frac{1}{4}.

Let us suppose, a unit is equal to \frac{1}4 of a cup.

Susan was supposed to use \frac{5}{4} of a cup.

i.e. 5 units of butter was to be used.

But, actual recipe has only 3 units of butter.

\text{Fraction of butter used} = \dfrac{\text{Units of butter used}}{\text{Unit of butter Susan was supposed to use}}

a. \text{Fraction of butter used} = \dfrac{3}{5}

Alternatively, we could have directly divided the given fractions:

\dfrac{\dfrac{3}{4}}{\dfrac{5}{4}} = \dfrac{3}{5}
