Answer:
Well, how many were left over? Mrs. Adams has a muffin factory and made 1 million muffins. Carl ate 2/5 or 40% or 400,000 muffins, and John ate 25. 599,975 muffins were shipped for sale. That meets the stated requirements.
Hence, we have to guess there were supposed to be no muffins left over.
In that case, Mrs. Adams baked 125/3 muffins, Carl ate 2/5 of them = 50/3, leaving 75/3 = 25 for John.
Step-by-step explanation:
x muffins baked, 2/5 eaten by Carl, 3/5 left to be eaten by John, who ate 25 before running out.
3/5 x = 25
x = 25 × 5/3 = 125/3 = 41 + 2/3
Or, Start with x muffins. Carl ate 2/5 x, leaving 3/5 x. John ate 25 with zero left over. So 3/5 x = 25.
(x - 2/5 x) - 25 = 0
3/5 x = 25
x = (5/3) × 25 = 125/3.
Answer: tea = 15 rupees per kg
sugar= 3 rupees per kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write a system of equations with the information given:
<em>"Two kg of tea and 3 kg of sugar cost rupees 39 in january 1997":
</em>
2 t + 3 s =39 (a)
Where:
- t= price of 1 kg of tea
- s = price of 1 kg of sugar
<em>"in march 1997 the price of the tea increased by 25% (1.25)and the price of the sugar increased by 20%(1.20) and the same quantity of tea and sugar cost rupees 48.30.
"</em>
2(t1.25)+3(s1.2) = 48.30 (b)
- <em>Solving for t in (b)
</em>
2t =39-3s
t = (39 -3s)/2
t = 19.5-1.5s
- <em>Replacing the value of t in (b)
</em>
2 x ((19.5-1.5s)1.25)+ 3 ( 1.2s) =48.30
2x ( 24.375 -1.875s) +3.6s =48.30
48.75 -3.75s+3.6s= 48.30
48.75-48.30 = 3.75s-3.6s
0.45= 0.15s
0.45/0.15 =s
3 =s
- <em>Replacing the value of s in (a)
</em>
2 t + 3 (3) =39
2 t + 9 =39
2 t =39 -9
2 t =30
t = 30/2
t= 15
Prices in january:
tea = 15 rupees per kg
sugar= 3 rupees per kg

Answer:
8 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Subtract value of tips she got that day
87.05 - 50.25 = 36.8
36.8 is the actual payment for her job that day
2. Divide 36.8 with paid/hour (4.6)
36.8 ÷ 4.6 = 8 hours
Answer: X = 8/3
