For this use proportions.
$\frac{5}{2} = \frac{35}{x}$
Cross multiply
$5x = 70$
Divide by 5
$x = 14$

Thomas buys 6 souvenirs for his friends and family. Each gift takes up 1/15 of his suitcase. If he has two suitcases, how much r

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

<u>Thomas still has 1 3/5 suitcases available for his own belongings.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the data given to us for solving the question:

Number of souvenirs bought by Thomas = 6

Space that each souvenir takes of Thomas suitcase = 1/15

Number of Thomas suitcases = 2

2. How much room is left for his own belongings in his suitcases?

Let's find out how much space the souvenirs take:

Number of souvenirs * Space that each souvenir takes

6 * 1/15 = 6/15 = 2/5 (Dividing by 3 the numerator and the denominator)

The souvenirs take 2/5 of one suitcase.

Now, we can calculate the room that is left for Thomas' belongings.

2 Suitcases - 2/5 for the souvenirs

2 - 2/5 = 10/5 - 2/5 = 8/5 = 1 3/5

<u>Thomas still has 1 3/5 suitcases available for his own belongings.</u>

The basketball boosters are selling school t-shirts for 20 dollars and pants for 45 dollars. Last week they sold 100 items and c

lana66690 [7]

He sold 76 shirts and 24 pants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one t-shirt = $20

Cost of one pants = $45

Total items sold = 100

Total sales = 2600

Let,

x be the number of t-shirts

y be the number of pants

According to given statement;

x+y=100 Eqn 1

20x+45y=2600 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 20

$20(x+y=100)\\20x+20y=2000\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

$(20x+45y)-(20x+20y)=2600-2000\\20x+45y-20x-20y=600\\25y=600$

Dividing both sides by 25

$\frac{25y}{25}=\frac{600}{25}\\y=24$

Putting in Eqn 1

$x+24=100\\x=100-24\\x=76$

He sold 76 shirts and 24 pants.

given the graph of f(x) then the graph of f(x) ± c is a vertical translation of f(x)

• if - c then a shift down of c units

• if + c then a shift up of c units

then for f(x) + 4 is a shift up of 4 units
