$0.75, They want to sell $285 worth of raffle tickets. So far, they have sold $75 worth of tickets. How many tickets do they still need to sell?" Some of the student responses are shown in the table below: Michelle's respone was 285 - 75 = 210 and 210 + 0.75 = 28, Kaley's respone was 285 - 75 = 210 and 210 + 0.75 = 210.75, Eva's response was 285 - 75 is 210 and 210 + 0.75 = 280, Rebecca's response was 285 - 75 = 210 and 210 + 0.75 = 118.

Answer:

michelle, kaley, and Rebecca.

Step-by-step explanation:

They have sold 100 tickets so far ($75), they need to sell 380 ($285) tickets in total and need to sell 280 more tickets.

Michelle was wrong because she should have divided 210 (how much more money they need to sell on tickets) into .75 (which is how much each ticket costs).

Kaley was wrong because she should have also divided 210 into .75 like Michelle.

Rebecca should have also divided 210 into .75.

Eva was the only correct one.

Y=-3x+6 y=9 What is the solutions to the system of equations?
Damm [24]

Answer:

(- 1, 9 )

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the equations gives y = 9, the y- value

To find the value of x, substitute y = - 3x + 6 , that is

- 3x + 6 = 9 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

- 3x = 3 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = - 1

Solution is (- 1, 9 )

When a number is decreased by 25%, the result is 22. What is the original number to the nearest tenth?
Ilya [14]

The decrease is 25% so this means that 22 is 75% of the original number (100% - 25% = 75%)

Divide 22 by 75%:

22/ 0.75 = 29.3

The answer is 29.3

a person Can travel 120 miles in one direction. the return trip was accomplished at double the speed and took three hours less t
BaLLatris [955]
40 mph would be 120 miles in 3 hours (120/40)

80 mph is 120 miles in 1.5 hours(120/80)

3 - 1.5 = 1.5, not 3 hrs

Change the speed to 20 mph( 1/2 the speed) to double the hours.

20 mph = 6 hours(120/20)

40 mph = 3 hrs(120/40)

6 - 3 = 3 hours difference
