In order to solve this we'll start by assigning variables to hamburgers and cheeseburgers, since these are what we're trying to find. Lets say x = hamburgers and y = cheeseburgers. So we know two things, we know that x+y= 763 (hamburgers plus cheeseburgers sold equals 763, and we know that y= x+63 (cheeseburgers sold equals 63 more than hamburgers sold). Now we have a system of equations. This can be solved most easily by rearranging each equation to each y, and then set them equal to each other:
x+y=763 -> y=763-x, and we already have y=x+63. Set them equal to each other:
x+63 = 763-x (add x to both sides) -> 2x+63 = 763 (subtract 63 from both sides) -> 2x = 700 (divide both sides by 2) x = 350. So we solved for x, which is hamburgers sold, which is what the question asks for, so your answer is 350 hamburgers were sold on Saturday

Ugo [173]

Answer:

According to the passage, whales weight 300,000 pounds on average. Narwhales weigh 2,000 pounds on average.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question is extremely vague, I'll just answer what's the weight of whales and the weight of narwhals.

According to the paragraph, blue whales weigh 3×10^{5} pounds.

This is what we call scientific notation. You could solve it normally, or you could use a faster method.

Scientific notation states that the first number that you see, the three, is the first part of the answer. The exponent on the number of zero's that there is.

That means that the answer to 3×10^{5} you get 300,000.

Let's do the same thing to Narwhales.

2×10^{3} is 2,000.

What is the probability of getting an odd number on a fair die and a tail on coin flip?
Arada [10]
So we know that the dice had 6 numbers which is 1 to 6, and we know that the odd number between 1 and 6 is 1,3,5. As a result, the probability of rolling an odd number on a fair die is 3/6 or 1/2, and we already know that probability of flipping a tail on a coin is 1/2, so I just take 1/2 times 1/2 to get 1/4 which is C. Hope it help!
