Answer:

Option B. $0.70

Step-by-step explanation:

First day fine = $0.10

Second day fine (doubled or $0.30 which is lesser)

= $0.10 + $0.10           [$0.10 is lesser than $0.30]

= $0.20

Third day fine = $0.20 + $0.20           [ $0.20 is lesser than $0.30]

                      = $0.40

Fourth day fine = $0.40 + $0.30  = $0.70

[$0.30 is cheaper than doubling the amount $0.40 + $0.40]

Therefore, the total fine for a book on the fourth day is $0.70

In one school, half of all students who like math like science as well. Also, in that school, a third of all students who like s
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have 'x' students who like math and 'y' students that like science, we can formulate that:

Half of x likes math and science, and also one third of y likes math and science, so:

(1/2) * x = (1/3) * y

x / y = (1/3) / (1/2)

x / y = (1/3) * 2 = 2/3

So the ratio of the number of students who like math to the number of students who like science is 2/3

How do I do these please help
AfilCa [17]
Your equation for number one is 600,788,188/760,507,625 = x/100
After cross multiplying you will get 760,507,625x = 60,078,818,800
Then you will divide by <span>760,507,625 to isolate the varible to get 78.99 = x.

Your equation in number two is 80/143 = x/100 because when you subtract 143  by 63 you get 80, the amount of males in the room. Then you cross multiply to get, 143x = 8000. Then you would divide both sides by 143 to isolate the varible to get 55%</span>

The sum of 4 consecutive intergers is 50, what is the first interger in this relationship
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive means in a row

Let x be the first integer

x+1 is the second

x+2 is the third

x+3 is the 4th

The sum is 50

x+ x+1 + x+2 + x+3 = 50

Combine like terms

4x+6 = 50

Subtract 6 from each side

4x+6-6 = 50-6

4x = 44

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = 44/4

x = 11
