Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cake shared=1/2

Pete share=x

Bill= twice as much as Pete

=2x

Pete's share+ Bill's share=total share

x+2x=1/2

3x=1/2

x=1/2÷3

x=1/2×1/3

=1/6

Pete's share=x=1/6

Bill's share=2x

=2(1/6)

=2/6

=1/3

A baker sells cookies for $1.50 each. If a minimum of two dozen cookies is ordered, the baker gives a 40% discount for each cook
kenny6666 [7]
I don't see the expression below.
Since the 40% discount applies to the number of cookies sold above 2 dozen, or 24, then if the number of cookies is c, then c - 24 is the number of cookies above 2 dozen. Answer is B.

<h3>Answer:  3.1691, 5.8, 5.802, 5.82</h3>

Explanation:

The smallest item is 3.1691 which is listed first. This is because 3 is smaller than 5.

Now to sort the values that start with 5.

Think of 5.82 as 5.820; think of 5.8 as 5.800

We can see that 820 is larger than 800, which means 5.820 is larger than 5.800; in short, 5.82 > 5.8

Through similar logic, we can see that 5.82 > 5.802 and it further means 5.82 is the largest item. The next largest is 5.802

The sub-list {5.802, 5.82, 5.8} sorts to {5.8, 5.802, 5.82}. These values are then written after the 3.1691 mentioned. This will produce the fully sorted list from smallest to largest.

I don’t know how to do it
lara [203]

Multiply the speed of the train by how many hours it travels:


22.5 miles per hour x 2.5 hours = 56.25 mile.

The train is 60 miles from it's destination, so now you want to subtract the miles it will travel in 2.5 hours from the total distance:

60 miles - 56.25 miles = 3.75 miles away from its destination.
