Answer:

Jose had 60 cards

Phillipe had 15 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of trading cards Phillipe had be x. Jose had 4 times, meaning he has 4x of these cards.

Jose gave away 50 cards while Phillipe gave away 5 cards to make their numbers equal.

Mathematically:

4x - 50 = x - 5

3x = 45

x = 45/3 = 15

Phillipe had 15 cards while Jose had 15(4) = 60 cards

Sidana [21]

Answer:

231 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom rented a truck with a base fee of 19.95. You will subtract this from the total since you just want to get the mileage.

Tom is getting charged .85 cents per mile driven.

Tom payed 216.30 subtotal minus the 19.95 base fee since we are trying to only see how many miles he drove.

(216.30-19.95=196.35) This will be total for each mile. All we need to do is divide to get the total of miles

(196.35÷.85= 231)

231 is the number of miles Tom drove.

The Mississippi River is about 4,000 kilometers long. An M&M is about 1 centimeter long. There are 100 centimeters in a mete
harkovskaia [24]
To be able to determine the number of M&Ms that are needed in order to measure the length of Mississippi River, we convert the units to a common one. For this purpose, we convert kilometers to centimeter such that,
 
Length of Mississippi River = (4000 km)(1000 m/1 km)(100 cm/1 m)
                       = 400,000,000 cm

Since there are 400,000,000 cm in the entire length of the river, the answer would also be 400,000,000.
