Helen bought 15 chips and 8 pretzels.

Chips and pretzels = 23 snacks
Chips = x
pretzels = 23 - x
chips = $0.25
pretzels = $0.50

$0.25x + $0.50(23-x) = $7.75
$0.25x + $11.50 - $0.50x = $7.75
-$0.25x = $7.75 - $11.50
-$0.25x = -$3.75
-$0.25x/-$0.25 = -$3.75/-$0.25
x = 15  * number of chips.

number of pretzels = 23 - x = 23 - 15 = 8

To check:
$0.25(15) + $0.50(8) = $7.75
$3.75 + $4.00 = $7.75
$7.75 = $7.75

Tyrone saved 24$ of the 60 that he earned mowing lawns .what percent of his earnings did tyrone save
mezya [45]
If 24 of the 60 were saved then the percent saved is

(24/60) x 100

Let's imagine for a second that all 60 was saved, then 100% of the money would be saved. Which makes sense, because

(60/60) x 100 = 100%

So the amount saved dived by the amount earned all times 100 is the percent saved.

sashaice [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to study the fuel consumption of each car, i.e the amount of mile per gallon the cars will consume

Step one:

given data:

First car

distance covered= 41 1/2 = 41.5miles

amount of gallons= 1 1/4= 1.25gal

the miles per gallons= 41.5/1.25=33.2 miles per gallon

Second car

distance covered= 21 3/5= 21.6miles

amount of gallons=4/5=  0.8gal

the miles per gallons= 21.6/0.8=27 miles per gallon

1. Therefore the unit rate of

the first car = 33.2 miles per gallon

the second car=27 miles per gallon

2. the first car can travel a greater distance on 1 gallon of gasoline
