Answer:
160
Step-by-step explanation:
77 / 48 = 1.604
1.604 x 100 = 160.41 which is about 160 passengers in total.
Answer to the first question: 7/10ths of a mile
Explaination: When adding fractions, you need to have a common denominator. Since dividing 3/10 by 2 to get a denominator of 5 makes 3 a decimal, it's easier to multiply 2/5 by 2 to get a denominator of 10. You do the same to the top that you do to the bottom:
. From there, just add 4/10 and 3/10 to get the answer: 7/10ths of a mile.
Answer to the second question: Daniel read three (3/10) more books
Explaination: Since you can't evenly multiply 5 or 2 to get the opposite number, it's easier to multiply to the lowest common multiple. The easiest way to find that is to multiply both denominators (5*2=10). You'll have to multiply the numerator by the same amount you multipled the denominator by. For Daniel, that would mean:
. For Edgar, that would mean:
. So, Daniel read 3 more books than Edgar.
Answer to the third question: 2/4 mile (or 1/2 a mile)
Explaination: 2/8 can be simplified, by dividing the top and bottom by 2, resulting in 1/4. Since both fractions have the same denominator (/4), you can add them to get 2/4ths. This can be simplified further to half (1/2) a mile.
Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of simple arrangements and y be the number of grand arrangements.
1. The florist makes at least twice as many of the simple arrangements as the grand arrangements, so

2. A florist can make a grand arrangement in 18 minutes
hour, then he can make y arrangements in
hours.
A florist can make a simple arrangement in 10 minutes
hour, so he can make x arrangements in
hours.
The florist can work only 40 hours per week, then

3. The profit on the simple arrangement is $10, then the profit on x simple arrangements is $10x.
The profit on the grand arrangement is $25, then the profit on y grand arrangements is $25y.
Total profit: $(10x+25y)
Plot first two inequalities and find the point where the profit is maximum. This point is point of intersection of lines
and 
But this point has not integer coordinates. The nearest point with two integer coordinates is (126,63), then the maximum profit is
