Answer:

  60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the number of stickers Sophia has. Then the number Ethan has is (2/3)s. The transfer of 16 stickers can be described by the equation ...

  (s -16)/(2/3s +16) = 1/2 . . . . . sophia/ethan = 1/2 after the transfer

  2s -32 = 2/3s +16 . . . . . . . . .cross multiply

  4/3s = 48 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 32-2/3s

  s = (48)(3/4) = 36 . . . . . . . . .multiply by 3/4

Together, the total number of stickers held is s +(2/3)s = (5/3)s.

  5/3s = (5/3)(36) = 60 . . . . . total of Sophia's and Ethan's stickers

Together, Sophia and Ethan have 60 stickers.

The cost for an order of 100 kilograms of steel bars is $230. The cost for an order of 150 kilograms of steel bars is $320. Writ
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

y = 9x/5 + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

We are represent the information as coordinate (x,y)

If the cost for an order of 100 kilograms of steel bars is $230, this is expressed as (100, 230)

Also if the cost for an order of 150 kilograms of steel bars is $320, this is expressed as;

(150, 320)

Find the equation of a line passing through the points. The standard form of the equation is expressed as y = mx+c

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Get the slope;

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 320-230/150-100

m = 90/50

m = 9/5

Get the y-intercept by substituting m = 9/5 and any point say (100, 230) into the expression y = mx+c

230 = 9/5(100)+c

230 = 9(20)+c

230 = 180 + c

c = 230-180

c = 50

Get the required equation

y = mx+c

y = 9/5 x + 50

Hence an equation for the cost of an order of steel bars (y) in terms of the weight of steel bars ordered (x) is y = 9x/5 + 50

The scale factor from a small triangle ABC to a large triangle XYZ is 5. How many times larger will the perimeter of triangle XY
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Answer below :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Question 4 - the answer will be 5. Since the scale factor is 5, we would (hypothetically) multiply the area by 5 to get the new area of XYZ, so area XYZ is 5 times the area of ABC.

Question 5 - A.

First we multiply 45 by 12 to find the amount in inches. This is 540. Now, we divide that by 6 to get 90. This is our scale factor in inches, but the answers only show the scale in feet, so we have to convert. Divide 90 by 12 to get 7.5.

I hope this helps!
