Answer:

lost 150

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Dante's pennies

Y = Mia's pennies

X + Y = 350                                       1/2 X = 2/3 Y

                                                               X = 4/3 Y

4/3 Y + Y = 350

7/3 Y = 350

Y = 350 * 3/7

Y = 50 * 3

Y = 150

X + 150 = 350

X = 200

                                                    1/2 * 200 = 2/3 * 150

                                                      100 .      =   100

Answer:

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Dante's pennies

Y = Mia's pennies

X + Y = 350                                       1/2 X = 2/3 Y

                                                                X = 4/3 Y

4/3 Y + Y = 350

7/3 Y = 350

Y = 350 * 3/7

Y = 50 * 3

Y = 150

X + 150 = 350

X = 200

                                                     1/2 * 200 = 2/3 * 150

                                                       100 .      =   100

1/2 * 200 = 100 -> Dante lost 100 pennies

1/3 * 150 = 50 -> Mia lost 50 pennies

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.

A Family purchased tickets to the movies in spent a total of $40.75. The family purchase five tickets there was a $.90 processi
muminat

Answer:

$7.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount spent on the ticket   = $40.75

Number of ticket purchased  = 5

Processing fee per ticket  = $0.90

Unknown:

Cost of each ticket = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to find the processing fee for the 5 tickets purchase;

      Processing fee = number ticket x processing fee per ticket

      Processing fee  = 5 x 0.9  = $4.5

Now, the real cost a ticket = $40.75  - $4.5  = $36.25

So, cost per ticket is;

        Cost  = \frac{36.25}{5}   = $7.25

Gina, Sam, and Robby all rented movies from the same video store. They each rented some dramas, comedies, and documentaries. Gin
weqwewe [10]
Solve using equations:

Gina 11 = a+b+c
Sam 27 = 2a+3b+2c
Robby 19= a+2b+2c

Gina *2 give 22=2a+2b+2c (subtract this from Sam to give)
b=5

the subtract Robby from Gina *2 to give a=3



[Question 1]
let d = number of dramas Gina rented, c = # of comedies, and t = # of documentaries:

[equation a] d + c + t = 11
[equation b] 2d + 3c + 2t = 27
[equation c] d + 2c + 2t = 19

if we subtract [a] from [c] we get:
[equation d] c + t = 8

if we subtract [c]*2 from [b] we get:
[equation e] -c - 2t = -11 or
[equation e] c + 2t = 11

Now we can subtract [e] from [d] to solve for t:
t = 3

Now put in 3 for t in [d] or [e] to solve for c:
c + 2(3) = 11
c + 6 = 11
c = 5

So she rented 5 comedies and 3 documentaries which leaves 3 dramas (which is answer A)

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Jose is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the communitive property, you can rearrange (-2x2), (3x), and (x) in the problem and get the same product. You can rearrange it to (3x)(x)(-2x2). You can rearrange it to (3x)(-2x2)(x). Now matter where you rearrange them, the equation will always have the same product.
