Answer:
6 jellybean
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Esmeralda received a bag of jellybean the contains regular flavored jelly beans and surprise jelly bean.
Consider the regular flavored jellybean to be = r; &
The surprise jelly bean.= s
From the bag, there are 40 jellybeans of which 15% is surprise jellybean.
Therefore the number of expected surprise jellybeans is:
= total number of jellybeans × percentage of surprise jellybean
= 40 × (15 /100)
= 6 jellybean
If 6 surprise jellybean is presented in the bag; then the number of regular flavored jellybean = 40 - 6 = 34 regular flavored jellybean
Answer:
The speed of the current is 3 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations for rate (r), distance (d), and time (t) are ⇒ d = rt, r = d/t, = t = d/r
Let x = speed in still water
Let c = speed of the current
The main difference with these problems is rate needs to be expressed using two variables because moving upstream the current is against you and downstream it moves with you.
Distance Rate Time
Upstream x − c
Downstream x + c
The distance column with the numbers from the problem and the value for speed in still water for x.
Distance Rate Time
Upstream 4 5 − c
Downstream 16 5 + c
The column for time using the other two columns knowing that rate, distance ⇒ time = Distance Rate Time
Upstream 4 5 − c
5 − c
4
Downstream 16 5 + c
5 + c
16
“It takes as long …” from the problem means that the two times are equal to each other. So, the equation can be written as:
4/5− c = 16/5 + c ⇒ Solve by cross-multiplying ⇒ 5(4 + c) = 16 5( − c) ⇒ c = 3
Bi weekly means every two weeks, divide 12 (this would be your months) by your annual pay (32,110), and you would get $2675.83. I hope this helps some.
