Answer:
j=10.8
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you want to get rid of that 1, so to do that, you add 1 to each side, so you have j/4=2.7. Next, to get rid of the division, you need to multiply by 4 instead, so if you multiply each side by 4 to cancel out the division, you're left with j=10.8
Answer:
10 exterior angles of 36° , 10 interior angles of 144° , and 10 vertices
Step-by-step explanation:
We are going to make simultaneous equations.
x will be our $3 ice cream and y will be our $5 ice cream
Equation1 ---- x + y = 50 (the sum of all the ice creams they sell)
Equation 2 ---- 3x + 5y = 180 Sum of all the $3 and $5 ice creams is $180
Since we can't solve for both variables we will put one of the variables in terms of the other.
Take x+y=50 and subtract y from both sides. (I could have done subtracted x - it did not matter). Now we have x= ₋ y +50 (negative y +50)
Now I am going to take equation 2 and replace the x with -y +50
3 (-y +50) + 5y = 180
Now I will use the distributive law on the 3 and what's in the parentheses:
-3y + 150 + 5y = 180
Now I will combine like terms (the -3y and the 5y)
2y + 150 = 180
Now subtract 150 from both sides of the equation
2y = 30
Divide both sides by 2
and get y= 15 They sold 15 ice creams that cost $5 each
Since equation 1 is x+y=50 we can replace y with 15
x + 15 = 50 Now subtract 15 from both sides x = 35
Since x represents the $3 ice creams, they sold 35 of those.
Check:
35 X 3 = $105
15 x 5 = + <u>75
</u> $180
0 remainder of 6

Answer:
6 gumballs can be stored in the gumball machine.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a gumball machine consists of a base and a glass sphere, and the gumballs are stored in the glass sphere, if each gumball has a diameter of 1.5 inches, to determine how many gumballs can be stored in a gumball machine whose glass sphere measures 10 inches in diameter, the following calculation must be made:
10 / 1.5 = X
6.666666 = X
Thus, 6 gumballs can be stored in the gumball machine.
