Answer:

240 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

cost of one lollipop = 65 cents

total amount Josie need to paid = 65 * 4 cents = 260 cents

amount Josie gave = $5

As we know

$1 = 100 cents

$5 = 100 * 5 cents

= 500 cents

number of cents Josie will get back

500 - 260

240 cents or $2.40

So, Josie will get 240 cents back

Bamboo Plant A is 1.2 meters tall and growing at a rate of 0.45 meter per day. Bamboo Plant B is 0.85 meter tall and growing 0.5

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

7 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Bamboo plant A = 1.2 + 0.45d

Bamboo plant B = 0.85 + 0.5d

Where,

d = number of days

Equate the two growth

Bamboo plant A = Bamboo plant B

1.2 + 0.45d = 0.85 + 0.5d

Collect like terms

1.2 - 0.85 = 0.5d - 0.45d

0.35 = 0.05d

Divide both sides by 0.05

d = 0.35 / 0.05

d = 7 days

Plant B be taller than Plant A after 7 days
