Okay so I don’t have a pen or paper so i’m going to have to write out every step on my phone, let me know if I lose you at any point.

the fraction would be 4/29.16, because you need to equality split the bill between 4 people.

the long division would be:

____________
4|29.16

4 does not go into 2 so place a zero over 2.

0___________
4|29.16

4 goes into 29 seven times, so place 7 over 9. subtract 7x4 from 29.16.

07._________
4|29.16
(-)28
————————-
= 1.16

4 goes into 11 (ignore the decimal and the 6 for now) 2 times. subtract 2x4 from 11.

07.2________
4|29.16
(-)28
————————-
= 1.16
(-) 8
————————-
= .36

4 goes into 36 9 times. subtract 4x9 from 36.

07.29_______
4|29.16
(-)28
————————-
= 1.16
(-) 8
————————-
= .36
(-) 36
————————-
= 0

so your answer would be each person would pay $7.29. I hope this makes sense!!

The average (arithmetic mean) of y numbers is x. If 30 is added to the set of numbers, then the average will be x − 5. What is t
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{5}(x^{2}-35x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total numbers are n.

If the average of y numbers is x then we can form an equation

\frac{y}{n}=x

⇒ \frac{n}{y}=\frac{1}{x}

⇒ n = \frac{y}{x} --------(1)

Now 30 is added to the set of numbers then average becomes (x - 5)

\frac{y+30}{n+1}=(x-5)

⇒ \frac{(n+1)}{(y+30)}=\frac{1}{(x-5)}

⇒ (n + 1) = \frac{y+30}{x-5}

⇒ n = \frac{y+30}{x-5} - 1 ----- (2)

Now we equate the values of n from equation 1 and 2

\frac{y}{x} = \frac{y+30}{x-5} - 1

y(x - 5) = x(y + 30) - x(x - 5)  [ By cross multiplication ]

xy - 5y = xy + 30x - x² + 5x

xy - xy - 5y = 35x - x²

-5y = 35x - x²

x² - 35x = 5y

y = \frac{1}{5}(x^{2}-35x)

The current in a stream moves at a rate of 7 mph. If a boat travels 98 miles downstream in the same time that it takes to travel
JulijaS [17]

If the current in a stream moves at a rate of 7 mph. If a boat travels 98 miles downstream in the same time that it takes to travel 49 miles upstream then the speed of the boat in still water is 21 miles per hour.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is the distance covered by an object in a certain time period. It is also known as velocity. The formula of speed is as follows:

Speed=Distance/ Time.

<h3>How to calculate speed?</h3>

We have been given that the speed of stream is 7miles per hour.

Let v be the speed of the boat, and t the time to travel

98=t*(7+v) (1)

49=t(v-7) (2)

(1)+(2) => 2tv=147

7t+(49+7t)=98

14t+49=98

14t=49

t=49/14

t=7/2

Put the value of t in equation 1 to get the value of v:

98=t(7+v)

98=7/2(7+v)

196/7=7+v

28=7+v

v=28-7

v=21

Hence if the current in a stream moves at a rate of 7 mph. If a boat travels 98 miles downstream in the same time that it takes to travel 49 miles upstream then the speed of the boat in still water is 21 miles per hour.
