Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is actually pretty simple. If x= a person, then 2x is men, and x is women.

You just have to solve for x.

714=2x+x

714=3x

x=238

Then you have to multiply it back out.

Men: 476

Women: 238

I hope this helps!

If you need help with anything else, or this answer just doesn't make sense, just let me know!

X+2x=714. (x being the number of women attending) the equation then simplifies to 3x=714. then solve 714/3=238 so x=238 so 238 women attended the concert. (and 476 men)

Answer:

Wouldn't it be 8?

Step-by-step explanation:

You crack 2 eggs and cook them, then eat them. If we cracked 2 eggs, cooked 2 different eggs, and ate 2 different eggs, that doesn't make sense.

monica sells lemonade over the summer and uses conical paper cups to serve the lemonade. Each cup is 8 centimeters tall.She star

GaryK [48]

Answer:

(a)205

(b)5 Packages

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{One gallon is equivalent to 3785 } cm^3$

Therefore: $\text{10 gallon= 3785X 10 =37850 } cm^3$

Therefore, Volume of the lemonade Monica Started with is $\text{37850 } cm^3$

The diameter of the cup =8cm

Therefore, Radius =8/2 =4cm

Height of the Cup =11cm

Volume of a Cone= $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$

$\text{Volume of the Cup}=\frac{1}{3}\pi *4^2*11 \\=184.31cm^3$

The number of cups needed to empty the 10 gallon cooler =37850÷184.31

=205.36

$\approx 205$ Cups

(b)If the Cups are sold in packages of 50

Number of Package to be bought =205 ÷ 50 =4.1

She would need to buy 5 packages.

Please answer this to the best of your ability

Lilit [14]

Answer:

For this exercise we need to solve the next equation:

3 +6x = 2x + 27

We can start substracting 3 at both sides:

3 + 6x - 2 = 2x + 27 - 3

6x = 2x + 25

And then, we can substract 2x::

6x - 2x = 2x + 24 - 2x

4x = 25

Then, we divide by 4:

4x/4 = 24/4

x = 24/4 = 6

Now, we can see if we have done it correctly:

3 + 6*6 = 39

2 * 6 + 27 = 39

And we have seen our result is correct
