Matthew has $50 in his saving, and his saving = y, y = 50

He spends $4 (the m) on snacks each time

50 = 4x + 8

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 8 from both sides

50 (-8) = 4x + 8 (-8)

42 = 4x

Divide 4 from both sides

(42)/4 = (4x)/4

x = (42)/4

x = 10.5

John Matthew buys 10 snacks (since he cannot buy 1/2 a snack)

Some friends of yours collected books for a book drive. They collected 64 Fiction, and 48 Non-Fiction books. They asked you to m
Cloud [144]

As all of the bundles have the same content inside, so assuming that there is x number of Fiction books and y number of Non-fiction books in each bundle.

Let n be the total number of bundles that my team can send.

There are 64 Fiction books, so

nx=64 ...(i)

Or x=64/n ...(ii)

also, there are 48 Non-Fiction books, so

ny=48 ...(iii)

Or y=48/n ...(iv)

Observing that the numbers x, y, and n are counting numbers and from equations (i) and (iii), n is the common factor of 64 and 48.

The possible common factors of 64 and 48 are,

n=1,2,4,8, and 16.

So, my team can send 1,2,3,4,8 or 16 bundles of books.

Now, from equations (ii) and (iv),

For n=1:

x=64/1=64

y=48/1=48

So, for 1 bundle the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 64 and 48 respectively.

For n=2:

x=64/2=32

y=48/2=48

So, for 2 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 32 and 24 respectively.

For n=4:

x=64/4=16

y=48/4=12

So, for 4 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 16 and 12 respectively.

For n=8:

x=64/8=8

y=48/8=6

So, for 8 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 8 and 6 respectively.

For n=16:

x=64/16=4

y=48/16=3

So, for 16 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 4 and 3 respectively.

one leg of a right triangle has length 7. the lengths of the other two sides are whole numbers. the length of the other leg is ?
zalisa [80]
Sets of three integers that could be right triangles are called pythagorean triples. the only pythagorean triple including 7 is 7, 24, and 25. so the length of the other leg is 24 and the length of the hypotenuse is 25. hope this helped!
