Christov and Mateus gave out candy to children on Halloween. They each have out candy at a constant rate, and they both gave awa

padilas [110]

Answer: 1) Both gave same number of candies to each child.

2) Christov gave candy to a greater number of children.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Christov initially had 300 pieces of candy, and after he was visited by 17 children, he had 249 pieces left.

Let he gave x candy to each student when he visited 17 children.

Then, 17 x + 249 = 300

⇒ 17 x = 51

⇒ x = 3

Since, he distributes candies in a constant speed.

Therefore, his speed of distribution = 3 candies per child

Now,The function that shows the remaining number of candies Mateus has after distributing candies to n children,

C(n)=270 - 3 n

Initially, n = 0

C(0) = 270

⇒ Mateus has initial number of candies = 270

When he gave candies to one child then remaining candies = 270 - 3 × 1 = 267

Thus, the candies, get by a child from Mateus = 270 - 267 = 3

Since, he distributes candies in a constant speed.

⇒ His speed of distribution = 3 candies per child

1) Therefore, Both Christov and Mateus have same speed of distribution.

2) Since, both have same seed.

⇒ The one who has greater number of candies will be distribute more.

⇒ Christov will give more candies.

Write the rational number as a decimal. Show your work. 5/9 -3/8 -3/11.

Bad White [126]

I have memorized facts about fractions like these, so can tell you ...

$\dfrac{5}{9}=0.5\overline{5}\\\\-\dfrac{3}{8}=-3\times 0.125=-0.375\\\\-\dfrac{3}{11}=-0.27\overline{27}$

_____

A fraction with 9 as a denominator is a repeating 1-digit decimal with the decimal digit being the numerator of the fraction.

A fraction with 11 as a denominator is a repeating 2-digit decimal with the two digits being 9 times the numerator of the fraction.

1/8 = 0.125, so any multiple of 1/8 is that multiple of 0.125.

A couch and coffee table cost a total of $1080. The cost of the couch is two times the cost of the coffee table. Find the cost o

Alborosie

Answer:

$720

$360

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of couch be A and that of coffee table be B

Given couch and coffee table cost $1080

That’s

A + B = $1080

Also, the cost of couch A is 2 times the cost of coffeee table B.

That’s

A = 2B

We now have two equations

A + B = 1080

A = 2B

Now ,substitute 2B for A in the first equation .

We have

A + B = 1080

2B + B = 1080

3B = 1080

Divide both sides by 3

3B/3 = 1080/3

B = 360

The coffee table cost $360

Remember A = 2B

Therefore

A = 2 x $360

A = $720

The couch cost $720 while the coffee table cost $360
