Answer:

The number of A's Dina got = 5/11 × 77 = 385 /11 = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of A's Pete , Chris and Dina received are in the ratio of 4:2:5.

Let the total number of A's = y

Total from ratio = 4 + 2 + 5 = 11

chris A's = 2/11 × y  

pete's A's = 2/11 × y + 14 = 4/11 × y

pete's A's

2/11 y + 14 = 4/11 y

14 = 4/11 (y) - 2/11 (y)

14 = 2/11 (y)

cross multiply

2y = 14 × 11

divide both sides by 2

y = 154/2

y = 77

Total number of A's = 77

The number of A's Dina got = 5/11 × 77 = 385 /11 = 35

Answer:

(a) C = 0.29<em>t</em> + 2.50

(b) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The variables are defined as follows:

<em>t</em> = the number of  toppings

<em>C</em> = total cost for ice cream

It is provided that:

  • An ice cream with no toppings is $2.50.
  • Every topping is priced at $0.29 each.

(a)

The algebraic equation to find the total cost for ice cream depending on the number of  toppings is:

C = 0.29<em>t</em> + 2.50

(b)

Compute the number of toppings Mr. Torrance can buy if  he wants to spend only $4.00 on it as follows:

C = 0.29<em>t</em> + 2.50

4.00 = 0.29<em>t</em> + 2.50

0.29<em>t</em> = 4.00 - 2.50

0.29<em>t</em> = 1.50

<em>t</em> = 5.1724

<em>t</em> ≈ 5

Thus, Mr. Torrance can buy 5 toppings.
