Answer:

180 and 300

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to divide up the number 480 in a 3:5 ratio.

=> We should turn 480 into 3+5=8 portions, each portion is 480/8 = 60.

=> 480 could be divided into 2 smaller numbers that satisfy 3:5 ratio:

60x3=180 and 60x5 = 300.

Check:

180:300 ratio <=> 3:5 ratio (valid)

Hope this helps!

Translate and solve: eight more than the product of three and a number is -13
Murrr4er [49]
Ok, so let’s take the given phrase.
Eight more than the product of 3 and a number is -13. A translation to numbers looks like this:
3x + 8 = -13
Now, let’s solve for x. We can start the process by subtracting 8 from both sides.
3x = -21
now, we will divide each side by 3 to isolate the variable, thus solving for x.
x = -7

Nora had already read 30% of the book before her teacher assigned it to the class. She is choosing between two options to finish
guapka [62]

Answer:

Let p represent the # of pages in the book.  Then, Nora has already read 0.30p pages and has 0.70p pages left to read.

If she reads 25% pages/night, that means reading 0.25(0.70)p pages per night, or 17.5 pages/night.  If 28% p/n, that means 0.28(0.70)p pages/night, or 19.6p pages/night.

How many nights will it take Nora to finish the book if she reads 25% of 7/10 of the book per night?  Without any calculations, we can answer this by "4 nights, since she reads 1/4 of the unread portion of the book per night."

If she reads 28% of 7/10 of the book per night, that will require fewer nights:

First night:  28%

Second night:  28%  

Third night:  28%

 Total:  3(28%) = 84%

This leaves 16% to read on the final night.

This is one interpretation of what I think is a poorly worded question.

The author of this question might have meant reading 25% of the remaining unread pages per night, which leads to a different answer.
