Answer:

$8.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing the total amount of money collected and the total amount of people going to the movies, which is 7 including "You" and your 6 friends gives an answer of 8.50

59.50 / 7 = 8.5

$8.50 because it’s you and 6 other friends meaning there is 7 people in total so you divide 59.50 by 7 and it comes out to 8.5 which is 8.50

Sarah would like to make a 6 lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds. She has several pounds of a mixture that is 80%

weeeeeb [17]

Answer: a. The system that models this situation is,

x + y = 6 , 8 x + 5 y = 36.

b. Solution is x = 2lb and y = 4lb

where x is the quantity of 80% of peanuts mixture mix with y quantity of 50% of peanuts mixture for making 60% of peanuts mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x quantity of 80% of peanuts mixture mix with y quantity of 50% of peanuts mixture for making 60% of peanuts mixture.

Then According to the question,

x + y = 6 --------- (1)

And, 80 % of x + 50 % of y = 60 % of 6

⇒ 0.8 x + 0.5 y = 3.6

⇒ 8 x + 5 y = 36 --------- (2)

Where equation 1) and equation 2) are the required equation which models the given situation.

Now, 8 × equation 1)

We get, 8 x + 8 y = 48 ----------(3)

equation (3) - equation (2)

we get, 3 y = 12

⇒ y = 4

By putting the value of y in equation (2)

we get, x = 2

Thus, he mixed 2 lb of mixture 80/20 and 4 lb of mixture 50/50 for making 6 lb of 50/50 mixture.

Claire traveled 701 miles. She drove 80 miles every day. On the last day of her trip she only drove 61 miles. Write and solve an

mina [271]

Answer:

Claire traveled for 9 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Distance traveled = 701 miles

Distance traveled each day = 80 miles

Distance traveled on last day = 61 miles

We need to find the number of days Claire traveled.

Solution:

Let the number of days Claire traveled be denoted by 'd'.

Now we can say that;

Total Distance traveled is equal to sum of Distance traveled each day multiplied by number of days and Distance traveled on last day.

framing in equation form we get;

$80d+61=701$

Now Subtracting both side by 61 using Subtraction Property of Equality we get;

$80d+61-61=701-61\\\\80d = 640$

Now Dividing both side by 80 we get;

$\frac{80d}{80}=\frac{640}{80}\\\\d=8$

Hence Claire traveled 80 miles in 8 days and 61 miles on last day making of total <u>9 days</u> of travel.
