So the expression for total number of straws is: 15p+48b

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

Straws in a pack = 15

Straws in a box = 48

Here

p denotes the number of packs and b is the number of boxes.

The product of number of packs and number of straws in a pack will give us the total straws in packs

15*p = 15p

Similarly, the product of number of boxes and number of straws in a box will give us the total straws in box

48*b = 48b

The sum of both will give us the total number of straws

So the expression for total number of straws is: 15p+48b

The sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39. If Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age, how old is Mel?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Age of Mel is 25 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,the sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39. If Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age.

Let 'x' be the Ali's age  and 'y' be the Mel's age

<u>To find the value of x and y</u>

sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39

⇒ x + y = 39    ------(1)

  Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age

⇒ y = 2x - 3   -------(2)

⇒  2x - y = 3  -----(3)

(1) + (3) ⇒  

 x + y = 39

2x - y = 3

----------------

3x   = 42

x = 42/3 = 14

y = 2x - 3 = 14*2 - 3  = 25

Therefore the age of Ali = 14

Age of Mel = 25

X+3=61
x=61-3=58

58+37=95
180-95=85

so x=58 and y=85

A certain alloy contains 5.25% copper. How much copper is there I a piece weighing 200 pounds?
kykrilka [37]
Find 5.25% of 200
remember
1% of 100=1
therefor
1% of 200=2
just remove the decimal and double it (for this special case of finding percent of 200)

5.25% of 200=5.25 times 2=10.5
answer is 10.5 pounds of copper
(the legit way is 0.0525 times 200=10.5 pound)


10.5lb is answer
