50% of cakes = party cakes.

Remainder = 100% - 50% = 50%

1/5 of Remainder = 1/5 * 50% = 10% = Sponge cakes.

Percentage of sponge cakes = 10%

What is<br> is 1/4 + 9/10y -3/5y +7/8 written in simplest form?

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{4}+\frac{9}{10}y - \frac{3}{5}y+\frac{7}{8}\\\\=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{9}{10}y-\frac{3}{5}y\\\\$

Combine like terms. 1/4 and 7/8 are like terms and LCD of 4 and 8 is 8

9/10y and -3/5y are like terms and LCD of 10 , 5 is 10

$= \frac{1*2}{4*2}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{9}{10}y-\frac{3*2}{5*2}y\\\\=\frac{2}{8}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{9}{10}y-\frac{6}{10}y\\\\=\frac{9}{8}+\frac{3}{10}y$

Lucy plans to spend between $50 and $60, inclusive, on packages of beads and packages of charms. If she buys 5 packages of beads

worty [1.4K]

She can buy maximum of $5$ packages while staying within her budget.

Minimum spending limit $=$ $ $50$ .

Maximum spending limit $=$ $ $60$ .

Cost of one package of beads $=$ $ $4.95$ .

Number of packages of beads bought $= 5$ .

Cost of one package of charms $=$ $ $6.55$ .

Let the number of packages of beads bought be $x$ .

$4.956 \times 5 + x \times 6.55 \geq 50$

$24.78+6.55x\geq 50$

$6.55x\geq 25.22$

$x\geq 3.85$

$4.956 \times 5 + x \times 6.55 \leq 60$

$24.78+6.55x\leq 60$

$6.55x\leq 35.22$

$x\leq 5.38$

So, she can buy maximum of $5$ packages while staying within her budget.

The point (2, -3), is the top of a triangle. Which point would it map to if the triangle was translated up 7 units and reflected

Elza [17]

Answer: (-2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you go up any number of units, you add it to the y-coordinate. So -3 + 7 = 4. That would make it, (2,4). The next step would be reflecting it across the y-axis. And whenever you reflect across the y-axis, the x-coordinate always changes.
