Let total amount spent =x

Dita spent 35 % of total amount.

35% of x = 0.35x

So amount spent by Dita = 0.35x

% of money spent by Benton = 20 % of x = 0.2x

We are given that Benton spent $12 more than Claire,

so making equation we have ,

Money spent by Dita = Money spent by Claire +12

0.35x =0.2x +12

0.35x -0.2x = 12

0.5x =12

x=80

So total amount spent was $80.

Money spent by Benton = 0.2x = 0.2 * 80= $16

So amount spent by Benton is $16.

Answer:

The radius is 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a circle is :  \p*radius^2

To work out the length of the radius you would first need to divide the area of  78.5 cm by pi (pi=3.14), this gives you 25cm^2\\. This is because by dividing the area by pi we are isolating the value of the radius squared.

The final step is to work out the radius. You can do this by finding the square root of the radius squared which is 25, this gives you 5 cm. This means that the radius is 5 cm. This is because the square root is a number that when squared equals that number.

1) Divide 78.5 by pi.

78.5/\pi=25cm^2

2) Find the square root of 25 cm squared.

\sqrt{25} =5 cm

In this question pi is 3.14

(a) False. The number 7 is NOT an element of set B as 7 is not in the set B (2, 3, 4 and 0 are though)

(b) False. 3 is a member of set A. It is the third element listed in the set. So saying "3 is not a member of set A" is a false claim

(c) True. The value 0 is found in set B. It is the last element listed.

3 Tejano CD

\text{Probability that Jerry randomly select a Tejano CD and then a rap CD from his case}=\text{Probability of selecting a Tejano CD}\times \text{Probability of selecting a rap CD}

P=\frac{3}{10}\times \frac{2}{9}

P=\frac{2}{30}

P=\frac{1}{15}
