Answer:

The closing price of the fast food restaurant was $30.5 and that of the toy company was $2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of each share of the toy company is $y and that of the fast-food restaurant is $x.

So. from the given condition we can write that, x = y + 28 .......... (1)

Again, it is given that the total value of stocks that they are holding was worth $981.00.

So, 27x + 63y = 981 ......... (2)

Hence, solving equations (1) and (2) we get,  

27(y + 28) + 63y = 981

⇒ 90y = 225

⇒ y = $2.5

And from equation (1), we have x = 28 + 2.5 = $30.5  

So, the closing price of the fast food restaurant was $30.5 and that of the toy company was $2.5. (Answer)

Your soccer team has won 6 games and lost 4 games. If the team does not lose any more games, how many games must the team win to
Lunna [17]

Answer: 4 games

Step-by-step explanation:

The team has won 6 games and lost 4 games. The win--loss ratio at the moment must be:

= 6 : 4

This must be at its simplest form which is:

= 3 :  2

To take it to 5 : 2, we would have to take up the left side of the ratio by 2.

Because we simplified by using a factor of 2, we have to multiply the 2 we just calculated by the factor to find the number of games needed to be won:

= 2 * 2

= 4 games

Selena walks from home to school each morning and back home each afternoon.altogether , she walks 2/3 mile each day . How far do
Ivanshal [37]
One days trip of to school from home and back home from school is 2/3 of a mile. We want to know how far it is to school from her house.

To solve this, we simply need to take half of the total distance (2/3)

\frac{2}{3} / 2

Next, we need to turn the 2 into a fraction. Every whole number can be made into a fraction by putting it over 1.

\frac{2}{3} / \frac{2}{1}

Because we are dividing, we need to invert the second fraction and then multiply.

\frac{2}{3} * \frac {1}{2}

Next, we multiply the top of the first fraction by the top of the second and the bottom of the first fraction by the bottom of the second.

\frac{2}{6}

Once you reduce, you get:

\frac{1}{3}
