Answer:

a) 18 button a buttons are required to fill the bag.

b) 12 button b buttons are required to fill the bag.

c) There are 11 buttons of each type in the box containing 220 g of buttons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question

Two button types, button a weighing 8 grams and button b weighing 12 grams. The buttons are sold in bags. Each bag contains 144 grams of buttons.

a) How many of button a are needed to fill one bag?

b) How many of button b are needed to fill one bag?

c) A box of buttons contains the same number of each type of button it contains 220g of buttons. How many of each type of button are in the box.

Solution

a) A bag contains 144 grams of buttons.

Button a weighs 8 grams per button.

Total number of button a buttons required to fill up the bag = (144/8) = 18 button a buttons.

b) A bag contains 144 grams of buttons.

Button b weighs 12 grams per button.

Total number of button b buttons required to fill up the bag = (144/12) = 12 button a buttons.

c) A box of buttons weighing 220 g contains the same number of each type of button.

Let this number be n.

This means the Total weight of button a buttons in this box = 8n

total weight of button b buttons in this box = 12n

Sum total of the weight of the buttons = 8n + 12n = 20n

20n = 220

n = (220/20) = 11.

This means there are 11 buttons of each type in the box containing 220 g of buttons.

Hope this Helps!!!

What group of americans were helped by andrew jackson
Ugo [173]
Jackson achieved national distinction for his performance in the War of 1812. In the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, he oversaw the destruction of 15 percent of the Creek population; the treaty that ended hostilities forced the Creek to cede over 20 million acres of their ancestral lands. Jackson is most remembered for his performance in the Battle of New Orleans, during which he led his troops to a decisive victory over the British after the Treaty of Ghent had been signed and hostilities had officially ended.

In December 1817, President James Monroe authorized Jackson to lead an offensive against the Seminole and Creek Indians in Georgia and Florida, sparking the First Seminole War. Jackson ordered his troops to destroy Seminole settlements, capture a Spanish fort, and execute two British citizens whom Jackson blamed for supporting the Seminoles against white people. In 1819, the Spanish ceded all of Florida to the United States in the Adams-Onís—or Transcontinental—Treaty.
