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
Answer: Length = 24; width =4
Step-by-step explanation
Since the ratio of the length to width is 6:1
Let the length be represented as 6x
And the width be = x
Such that that the Perimeter of the rectangle which is
Perimeter = 2(length + width) becomes
56 = 2(6x + x)
56/2 = 6x+x
28 = 7x
x = 4
Width = 4
Length = 6x= 6 x 4 = 24
Answer: 4:20
Step-by-step explanation:
60 lbs can be divided into three groups, in this case the bags of sand, so 60 divided by 3 is 20.
Now you have the 8 lbs left. It gets divided into two groups/bags so you would do 8 divided by 2 is 4.
Then for your ratio it is cement to sand which is 4:20. You can write the ratio however way you want or what is required by the question.(fraction bar, ‘to’, or colon ‘:’ )
Hope this helps!

Answer:
Approximately $594.38
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula: y = a(1 + r)^t
a is the initial amount
r is the percent of interest in decimal form
t is the time in years
y is the money after t years
Substitute the values given in the problem into the equation:
400(1+0.02)^20
