the question in English

Juan has blue cubes with a 55 mm edge and red cubes with a 45 mm edge. He stacks them in two columns, one of each color; he wants the two columns to be the same height. How many cubes does he need, as a minimum, of each color?

Let

x---------> the number of blue cubes

y--------> the number of red cubes

we know that

Juan wants that  the two columns to be the same height

so

55x=45y

solve for y

y=\frac{55}{45}x

I proceed to calculate a table, assuming values of x to calculate the value of y. When the values of x and y are whole numbers, I will have found the solution.    

the table in the attached figure

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

9 blue cubes

11 red cubes

A salesperson sells $2100 in merchandise and earns a commission of $273, What is the commission rate?
larisa86 [58]

if we take 2100 to be the 100%, what is 273 off of it in percentage?

\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 2100 & 100\\ 273& x \end{array} \implies \cfrac{2100}{273}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{100}{13}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 100x=1300\implies x=\cfrac{1300}{100}\implies x=13

Which of the following inequalities is equivalent to 3-(w+2)&gt;4+2w
Kay [80]

3 - w - 2 > 4 + 2w  \\  - w - 2w > 4 + 2 - 3 \\  - 3w > 6 - 3 \\   \frac{ - 3w}{ - 3}  >  \frac{3}{ - 3} \\ w <  - 1
The sign at the end changes because both sides of the equation are being divided by a negative number.

Write the equation of the line in point-slope form that passes through (5, -1) and has a slope of 2/3
kolezko [41]

Answer:

y-(-1)=2/3(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is

y-y_1=m(x-x_1) where m is the slope, x_1 is the x coordinate of a point that the line passes through, and y_1 is the y coordinate of a point the line passes through.

Substituting, we get

y-(-1)=2/3(x-5)

At one​ store, Julia saved ​$10 with a coupon for 40​% off her total purchase. At another​ store, the ​$29 she spent on books is
barxatty [35]
Let "a" and "b" represent the values of the first and second purchases, respectively.
  0.40*(original price of "a") = $10
  (original price of "a") = $10/0.40 = $25.00 . . . . divide by 0.40 and evaluate
  a = (original price of "a") - $10 . . . . . . Julia paid the price after the discount
  a = $25.00 -10.00 = $15.00

At the other store,
  $29 = 0.58b
  $29/0.58 = b = $50 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of b and evaluate

Then Julia's total spending is
  a + b = $15.00 +50.00 = $65.00

Julia spent $65 in all at the two stores.
