So it is really easy to solve firstly we can see how much does the first 10 boxes make which makes around 55$ obviously. Secondly 45$ for the next 10 boxes.
So for now we can simply calculate that we have spent around 100$ which means 20 boxes. The remaining money left is 77$ so we can buy 77/3.5 = 22 only 22 boxes with that money. Hence a total of 42 boxes.
Answer:
7x + 2y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
standard form is always written as:
Ax + By = C
20 000 is as much as 20 * 1 000, so we can write it as: 20 * 10^3
3 400 000 is as much as 34 * 100 000, so we can write it as: 34 * 10^5
The sum in scientific notation would look like this:
20 * 10^3 + 34 * 10^5
I hope that's what you meant :)
Hello there! Thank you for asking your question here at Brainly. I will be assisting you today with answering this problem, and will be teaching you how to deal with it on your own in the future.
First, let's take a look at our question, and evaluate it.
"The area of a rectangular patio is 5 5/8 square yards, and it's length is 1 1/2 yards. What is the patio's width in yards?"
To clarify this problem, we are looking for the patio's width.
Let's first understand what the area of a rectangular shape is.
The formula for the area of a rectangle is "Length times Width", or "L • W".
So this is how the equation should look like:
A = L • W
We have our area, 5 5/8, and we have our length, 1 1/2.
To make things more simple, let's convert our fractions to decimals. Now, to convert our fractions to decimals, let's set our denominators (the numbers on the bottom of a fraction) equal to another fraction, with x as the numerator (the numbers on the top of a fraction) and 100 as the denominator.
So we have 1/2 and x/100. Divide 100 by 2 to find x (as 1/2 of anything is dividing by 2).
100 / 2 = 50, so 1 1/2 = 1.50 as a decimal.
Now, let's try 5/8.
1/8 = 0.125, so multiply 0.125 by 5.
0.125 • 5 = 0.625.
5 5/8 = 5.625 as a decimal.
So, now we have our equation:
A = L • W
Plug in our numbers.
5.625 = 1.50x
To isolate and solve for x, we need to divide both sides by 1.50, so let's do that.
5.625 / 1.50 = 3.75
1.50x / 1.50 = x
We are now left with:
x = 3.75
Your answer is:
The patio's width is 3.75 yards.
I hope this helps!
