Well it's a dare so I guess I'll do it.
Answer:
$21.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Mr. Gutierrez had $100 to purchase candy for his students that completed their work.
He bought 8 bags of jolly ranchers
Each bag of jolly ranchers cost $3.25.
Hence, the cost of 8 bags of jolly ranchers = 8 × $3.25
= $26
He also bought 25 bags of assorted chocolate and each bag of assorted chocolate cost $2.10.
Hence, the cost of 25 bags of assorted chocolates = 25 × $2.10
= $52.5
Therefore, the amount of money Mr. Gutierrez has left over after these purchases is calculated as:
Total amount - Sum of ( Cost of 8 bags of jolly ranchers + 25 bags of assorted chocolates)
= $100 - ( $26 + $52.5)
= $100 - $78.50
= $21.50
Amy: x skirts
Betty: 2x skirts
Carol: (2x) + 7 skirts
If Amy has 18 less than Carol, than Carol's equation minus 18 equals Amy's equation:
[(2x) + 7] - 18 = x
+18 +18
(2x) + 7 = x + 18
- 7 -7
2x = x + 11
-x -x
x = 11
Input the solution for x into the girls equation to double check.
Amy: 11
Betty: 2(x)
2(11)
=22
Carol: (2x) + 7
22 + 7
=29
Does Amy have 18 less than Carol?
Carol - Amy = 18
29 - 11 = 18
18 = 18
the problem is solved
Answer:
W, M, A and G
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is not correct, the correct question is Adams, Greensburg, Middletown, and Waldron are four towns in Indiana on a nearly straight highway. If the highway is represented by a line, the towns can be represented by four points: A, G, M, and W. Given that MG + WM = WG and MA = MG - AG determine the proper order of the four towns.
Answer: The line segment addition postulate states that for a line segment AC with point B which lines on AC, then this equation holds:
AB + BC = BC
Given that MG + WM = WG, this means that point M lies between the segment WG.
Also, MA = MG - AG
MA + AG = MG, hence point A lies between segment MG
Therefore the order of the points is W, M, A and G
