Answer:
12.42 = 1242 / 100;
4.6 = 46 / 10;
12.42 ÷ 4.6 = (1242 / 100) ÷ (46 / 10 ) = (1242 / 100) x (10 / 46 ) = ( 1242 / 46 ) x ( 100 / 10 ) = 27 x 10 = 270;
Step-by-step explanation:
Y=13 Because a line equals 180. 180-11=169/13=13
x=8 because 180+22=202-4=198/11=18
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Step 1: Determine quantity per liquid</em>
liquid 1=7/8 cup
liquid 2=9/10 cup
<em>Step 2: Derive expression to calculate total amount of mixture</em>
The expression below can be derived;
T=a+b
where;
T=total amount of mixture
a=total amount of liquid 1
b=total amount of liquid 2
In our case;
a=7/8 cup
b=9/10 cup
replacing;
T=(7/8)+(9/10)=1 31/40 cups
The total amount of mixture=1 31/40 cups
Answer:cost of each pound of apple= $3
And cost of each pound of orange =$2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Let cost of apples = x
And cost of Oranges =y
Let 6 pounds of apples and 3 pounds of oranges cost 24 dollars be represented as
6 x + 3y= 24----- equation 1
Also, Let 5 pounds of apples and 4 pounds of oranges cost 23 dollars be represented as
5x+ 4y= 23----- equation 2
Step 2
6 x + 3y= 24----- equation 1
5x+ 4y= 23----- equation 2
Using substitution method to solve the equation
6 x + 3y= 24
24-6x=3y
y= 24-6x/3 = 8-2x
Y= 8-2x
Substituting the value of y= 8-2x into equation 2
5x+ 4( 8-2x)= 23
5x+ 32 -8x= 23
32-23= 8x-5x
9=3x
x=9/3
x=3
Putting the value of x= 3 in equation 1 and solving to find y
6 x + 3y= 24
6(3) +3y= 24
18+3y=24
3y= 24-18
3y=6
y=6/3= 2
Therefore the cost of each pound of apple= $3
And cost of each pound of orange =$2
4 pizzas because, 12 slices /3 per person =4 and 16 people /4 = 4 pizzas
