Answer:
For every 15 students scoring in the 60's there were 9 students scoring in the 70's.
Step-by-step explanation:
Your first step would be to rewrite the numbers into an easier to understand form like fractions, 45/3 and 27/3. Then you divide both numbers by 3, so you get comparable numbers. 45/3= 15, 27/3=9.
88 degrees is the correct answer
Given:
h = high quality bean ; costs 6 per pound
c = cheaper bean ; costs 3.25 per pound
160 pounds of blended coffee beans at 4.97 per pound
h + c = 160
6h + 3.25c = 160(4.97)
6h + 3.25c = 795.20
h = 160 - c
6(160-c) + 3.25c = 795.20
960 - 6c + 3.25c = 795.20
- 2.75c = 795.20 - 960
- 2.75c = -164.80
c = - 164.80 / -2.75
c = 59.92 or 60 pounds
h = 160 - c
h = 160 - 60
h = 100 pounds
Sarah must blend 100 pounds of high quality bean and 60 pounds of cheaper bean.
Problem: Maria baked 50 cupcakes for a bake sale, 29 of the cupcakes were sold, then she baked more cupcakes and then sold 52 and had two leftover cupcakes. How many cupcakes did she bake the second time?
Solution: 50 - 29 + a - 52 = 2
50 - 29 =21...(and etc.)
Hope this helps! :)
