Answer:

3. 10000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of gumball cartons = 3

Number of boxes per carton = 100

Number of gumballs per box = 100

The number of gumballs can be expressed in the form : (a. 10) ; where ; a = prime number ; b = whole number

Values of a and b?

Total number of gumballs :

Number of carton × number of boxes per carton × number of gumballs per box

3 × 100 × 100

Hence, writing the expression in the form: a. 10

a. 10 = 3 × 10000

4 less than half a number is equal to 2 more than the number

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

$-12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let that number be $x$ . We can build an equation, and solve for $x$ .

$4$ less than half of $x$ is $x/2-4$ .

$2$ more than $x$ is $x+2$ .

We are given that the two quantities are equal, so we have that $x/2-4=x+2$ .

Adding $4$ to both sides gives $x/2=x+6$ .

Multiplying both sides by $2$ gives $x=2(x+6)=2x+12$ .

Subtracting $2x$ from both sides gives $-x=12$ .

Multiplying both sides by $-1$ gives $x=-12$ .

So, the number is $\boxed{-12}$ and we're done!

The check is left as an exercise to the reader.

Bert and Ernie are missing each other and their friend Big Bird. They want to meet at Big Birds nest which is halfway from their

OLga [1]

Answer:

21 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the distances is the same, so we have ...

5x +4 = 15x -30

34 = 10x

3.4 = x

Then the distances are ...

5(3.4) +4 = 21 . . . . miles

Bert and Ernie each live 21 miles from Big Bird's nest.

First off, let's convert the percentages to decimal format, so our 77% turns to 77/100 or 0.77, and our 55% turns to 55/100 or 0.55 and so on

now, the sum of both salines, must add up to the 77% mixture, let's say is "y"
so, 11 + 4 = y, and whatever the concentration level is, must also sum up to the mixture's concentration of 77%

anyway thus

$\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&amount&concentration&
\begin{array}{llll}
concentrated\\
amount
\end{array}\\
&-----&-------&-------\\
\textit{first sol'n}&11&x&11x\\
\textit{second sol'n}&4&0.55&2.20\\
------&-----&-------&-------\\
mixture&y&0.77&0.77y
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
11+4=y\implies 15=\boxed{y}\\
11x+2.2=0.77y\\
----------\\
11x+2.2=0.77\cdot \boxed{15}
\end{cases}$

solve for "x"
