Answer:

  • Option A. $140.00

Explanation:

<u>1. Using the minimun number of sheets  of paper in the interval [300, 400]</u>

a) Cost: $ 2.00 / 100 sheets

b) 300 sheets / day × $ 2.00 / 100 sheets = $ 6.00 / day

c) Approimately 20 school days per month:

  • $ 6.00 / day × 20 day = $ 120.00

<u>2. Using the maximum number of sheets of paper in the interval [300, 400]</u>

a) Cost: $ 2.00 / 100 sheets

b) 400 sheets / day × $ 2.00 / 100 sheets = $ 8.00 / day

c) Approimately 20 school days per month:

  • $8.00 / day × 20 day = $ 160.00

<u>3. Middle value:</u>

Calculate the middle value between $160.00 and $120.00

  • [$120.00 + $160.00] / 2 = $140.00

Thus, the answer is the option A.

A truck can travel 210 miles in the same time it takes a car to travel 350 miles. If the trucks rate is 20 miles per hour slower
nekit [7.7K]

Answer: The speed of the truck is 30 mph.

The speed of the car is 50 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the car. If the trucks rate is 20 miles per hour slower than the car's, it means that the speed of the truck is

(x - 20) miles per hour.

Time = distance/speed

The truck can travel 210 miles in the same time it takes the car to travel 350 miles. It means that the time it would take the truck to travel 210 miles is

210/(x - 20)

Also, the time it would take the car to travel 350 miles is

350/x

Since the time is the same, it means that

210/(x - 20) = 350/x

Cross multiplying, it becomes

350(x - 20) = 210x

350x - 7000 = 210x

350x - 210x = 7000

140x = 7000

x = 7000/140

x = 50

The speed of the truck is

x - 20 = 50 - 20 = 30 mph

Raymond is installing a new kitchen counter top . The counter top is a rectangular piece of quartz that is 5.75 feet long and 2.
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

5.75 ft ≈ 6 ft

2.47 ft ≈ 2 ft

perimeter of the rectangular counter top  = 16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The counter top he is installing is a rectangular piece of quartz that is 5.75 ft long and 2.47 ft wide. The length and the width can be rounded off to the nearest whole number as follows.

length = 5.75 ft to the nearest whole number will be 6 ft

width = 2.47 ft to the nearest whole number will be 2 ft

The logic in rounding off the number to the nearest whole number is that the value on the left hand side of the decimal is rounded off to an integer. If the number at the right hand side of the number is greater or equal to 5 we borrow 1 and add to the left hand side number of the decimal number.

Therefore,

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2l + 2w

perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × 6 + 2 × 2

perimeter of the rectangle = 12 + 4

perimeter of the rectangle = 16 ft

5n + 3 = 2(n + 2) + 3n <br> N= ???<br> -Show All Work!-
Gelneren [198K]
Simplifying
5n + 3 = 2(n + 2) + 3n

Reorder the terms:
3 + 5n = 2(n + 2) + 3n

Reorder the terms:
3 + 5n = 2(2 + n) + 3n
3 + 5n = (2 * 2 + n * 2) + 3n
3 + 5n = (4 + 2n) + 3n

Combine like terms: 2n + 3n = 5n
3 + 5n = 4 + 5n

Add '-5n' to each side of the equation.
3 + 5n + -5n = 4 + 5n + -5n

Combine like terms: 5n + -5n = 0
3 + 0 = 4 + 5n + -5n
3 = 4 + 5n + -5n

Combine like terms: 5n + -5n = 0
3 = 4 + 0
3 = 4

Solving
3 = 4
The left and right sides are not equal, therefore there is no solution.
