Sarah sold a total of 178 t shirts and posters at a festival. She sold 46 more tshirts than poster. How many posters did she sel
ycow [4]

Sarah sold 66 posters

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "a" be the number of shirts sold

Let "b" be the number of posters sold

<em><u>Sarah sold a total of 178 t shirts and posters at a festival</u></em>

Therefore,

number of shirts sold + number of posters sold = 178

a + b = 178 ----------- eqn 1

<em><u>She sold 46 more tshirts than poster</u></em>

Number of shirts sold = 46 + number of posters sold

a = 46 + b --------- eqn 2

<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>

46 + b + b = 178

2b = 178 - 46

2b = 132

b = 66

Thus she sold 66 posters

Kristen can run at 9kmh-1 and walk at 3kmh-1. She completed a 42km marathon in 6 hours. What distance did Kristen run during the
Hatshy [7]
Kristen completed 42 km. We will imagine that she ran all 6 hours. => 9 * 6 =54 km which is more than she actually completed. So we will find a 9 Multiple less than 42 km and that will be 36 km. (9 * 4 = 36 km completed by running) and the rest until 42 were completed by walking (3 * 2 = 6; 6 + 36 =42).

If AB is 12, what is the length of A'B'?
lukranit [14]

Triangles ABC and A'B'C are similar. This means that the corresponding sides are in the same ratio, in this case:

\frac{BC}{B^{\prime}C}=\frac{AC}{A^{\prime}C}=\frac{AB}{A^{\prime}B^{\prime}}

Replacing with data:

\begin{gathered} \frac{9}{6}=\frac{12}{A^{\prime}B^{\prime}} \\ 9\cdot A^{\prime}B^{\prime}=12\cdot6 \\ A^{\prime}B^{\prime}=\frac{72}{9} \\ A^{\prime}B^{\prime}=8 \end{gathered}
