Answer:
5.75 yds left
Step-by-step explanation:
1.25 yds per bag*5 bags =6.25 yds used
She had 12 yds
12-6.25 =5.75
She has 5.75 yds left
Answer:
20 pizzas.
Step-by-step explanation:
40% = 8
1% = 8 ÷ 40 = 0.2
100% = 0.2 x 100 = 20
Answer:
We have 40% antifreeze and 70% antifreeze and we need to make 240 liters of 64% antifreeze.
We set up 2 equations where "f" is the 40 % and "s" is the 70%
A) f + s = 240
B) .40f + .70s = (.64 * 240) (or 153.6)
To solve both equations we multiply A) by -.40
A) -.40 f - .40 s = -96.00 then we add this to B)
B) .40f + .70s = 153.60
.30s = 57.6
s = 192
f = 48
48 liters of 40% = 19.20 liters of antifreeze
192 liters of 70% = 134.40 liters of antifreeze
That equals 153.60 liters of antifreeze in a TOTAL liquid amount of 240 liters.
Double Check
153.60 / 240 = 64% antifreeze.

Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Maybe you want to find x such that ...
2/7 = x/(x +10)
2(x +10) = 7x . . . . . . multiply by 7(x+10)
20 = 5x . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2x, simplify
4 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

<em>Additional comment</em>
You can almost solve this "by inspection" if you recognize the difference of the denominator and numerator is 5 on the left and 10 on the right. If you multiply the fraction on the left by 2/2, you get 4/14, the values in x/(x+10) in the fraction on the right.
Since they are moving in opposite directions, this is the same as Amy staying still and Erica biking at 10 meters per second away from her.
To travel 1km = 1000m at 10 meters per second, you need 1000/10 = 100 seconds.
