Answer:Holly drank 12 bottles in a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

First change the fraction 1 2/5 litre into a decimal, by doing this, we can know how many litres are there in 2/5.

So= 1 2/5

= 2 ÷5 = 0.4

= 1 + 0.4 = 1.4 liters

1.4 liters is the amount of water in a bottle.

Next, also change the fraction 2 2/5 litres into a decimal.

So=2 2/5

= 2÷5 = 0.4

= 2 + 0.4 = 2.4 liters

She drinks 2.4 liters a day.

To find how many bottles she drank in 1 week, we must multiply the amount of water she drinks in a day to the days in a week.

So= 1 week= 7 days

= 1 day= 2.4 liters

So= 2.4 × 7 = 16.8

She drinks 16.8 in a week.

To find how much bottles she drank in a week, we must divide the amount of liters she drank in one week to the amount of liters are there in a bottle.

So= 16.8 ÷ 1.4= 12 bottles

Holly drinks 12 bottles in a week.

I hope this helps! I'm sorry if it's wrong and complicated.

sergejj [24]
3/4 + 4 1/2 = 5 1/4

If you mean that the dictionary is 41/2 then the answer = 3/4 + 20 1/2 = 21 1/4. That's a big diction though and not likely measured correctly.

Jordan solved the equation −7x + 25 = 48; his work is shown below. Identify the error and where it was made.
irina [24]
She did everything correct in step 1 and 2 
Until step 3 she took a wrong turn. 
She wrote seven times x over seven = twenty-three over 7

When she should have wrote..
negative seven times x over negative seven = twenty-three over negative seven

So her answer was 
23/7 
while it should have been a negative. ->   -23/7 

Good Luck! :)

Alona [7]

Answer:

A regional soccer tournament has 64 participating teams.

In the first round of the tournament, 32 games are played.

In each successive round, the number of games played decreases by 1/2.

Part A:

We know;

a_n=a_1\times r^{n-1}

a_1=32

r=\frac{-1}{2}

So, we get;

The rule for the number of games played in the nth round is given by:

a_n=32(\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}

where 1\leq n\leq 6

Part B:

As in each successive round the rounds are decreasing by 1/2 we have.

round 1 = 32

round 2 = 16

round 3 = 8

round 4 = 4

round 5 = 2

round 6 = 1

So, the total number of games played in the regional soccer tournament are: 32+16+8+4+2+1=63

Henry was buying meals for his family. He bought 3 meals that included a chicken, corn, and a drink and spent a total of $20.25.
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The price of each meal cost before tax is $ 6.367

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total price of three meals = $ 20.25

The sales tax included in the total price = 6 %

So, Let the cost of meal before sales tax = x

Or, x + 6 % of x = $ 20.25

or, x + 0.06 x = $ 20.25

Or, 1.06 x = $ 20.25

∴  x = \frac{20.25}{1.06}

I.e x = $ 19.10

Or, price of three meals before tax = $ 19.10

so, The price of each meal = \frac{19.10}{3} = $ 6.367

Hence The price of each meal cost before tax is $ 6.367   answer
