A soccer team played 160 games and won 65 percent of them. How many games did the team win?

2 answers:

6 0

Yes it is 104 games. You multiply it by .65 because if they win all games 160 x 1 would just be 160, or a perfect season. Since this team lost some games their percentage of wins wont be 1, it will be lower than 1. You multiply becuase when a number is lower than 1 it reduces the total not increases it. It is like the inverse.

104 games.
160 x 0.65 = 104

The measure of an angle is 8 degrees less than three times the measure of another angle. If the two angles are supplementary (tw

Kitty [74]

Answer:

The measure of the larger is $133^{\circ}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The measure of an angle is $8$ degrees less than three times the measure of another angle.

The two angles are supplementary.

To find: The measure of the larger angle.

Solution:

Let the measure of the smaller angle be $x^{\circ}$ .

Then the measure of the larger angle be $3x^{\circ}-8^{\circ}$ .

The two angles are supplementary, so their sum is $180^{\circ}$ .

So, $x^{\circ}+3x^{\circ}-8^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$

$\Rightarrow 4x^{\circ}-8^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$

$\Rightarrow 4x^{\circ}=180^{\circ}+8^{\circ}$

$\Rightarrow 4x^{\circ}=188^{\circ}$

$\Rightarrow x^{\circ}=\frac{188^{\circ}}{4}$

$\Rightarrow x^{\circ}=47^{\circ}$

So, the measure of the smaller angle is $47^{\circ}$ .

And, the measure of the larger angle is $3\times47^{\circ}-8^{\circ}=133^{\circ}$ .

Hence, the measure of the larger is $133^{\circ}$ .

Xanthia buys hot dogs that come in packages of six, and she buys hot dog buns that come in packages of eight. What is the smalle

balandron [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The smallest number of hot dogs packages and hot dog buns that has the same amount of is the least common multiple between 6 and 8.

6 = 3*2

8 = $2^{3}$

So, the least common multiple is the product of each multiple with the biggest exponent, that is $2^{3}*3=24$ . Then, Xanthia has to buy 4 hot dog packages to have 24 hotdogs and 24 hotdog buns.
