Answer:
Martina has 18,000
Step-by-step explanation:
- Set up the 4/5 the amount Tamara has as a proportion. 4/5 = x/20000
- Then cross multiply
- 4 * 20,000 = 80,000
- 80,000 = 5x
- Divide and get 16,000 (This is 4/5 of what Tamara has)
- Set up what Martina has as a proportion. 8/9 = 16,000/x
- Cross multiply 8x = 16,000 * 9
- 8x = 144,000
- Divide by 8
- 18,000 :)
The answer to this equation is 12-9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- 162 total guests.
- 3 servers
Let the number of guests the second server helped be x.
then the first server helped 3x
then the third server helped [(3x)*2] = 6x
Equation in total:
6x + 3x + x = 162
10x = 162
x = 16.2
- First server helped: 3 * 16.2 = 49 guests
- Second server helped: 16 guests
- Third server helped: 6x = 6(16.2) = 97 guests
Answer:
Length is 90yards and width is 60yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter= 2( length+width)
let the width be x
then the length will be 30 + x
300 = 2(30+x+x)
150 = 30 + 2x
120= 2x
x = 120/2
x = 60 yards
length= 30+x
= 30 + 60
= 90yards
