10 - 2x = -5x -5
+2x +2x
10 = -3x -5
+5 +5
15= -3x
X= -5
As a group they were paid $1000 after putting in 4+6+5+5 = 20 worker-hours.
$1000/(20 worker-hours) = $50/(worker-hour)
Alemu received 4*$50 = $200
Tulu received 6*$50 = $300
Kassa and Tegitu each received 5*$50 = $250
Answer:
11 people will get both the prizes.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question we need to find common integral multiples of 5 and 7 under 400. As you can see in the figure 35th person is the first one to get both ipod and psp. The LCM (least common multiple) of 5 and 7 which is 35 (!!! <em>I hope you know how to LCM of two integers </em>).
Therefore the integral multiples of 35 will be same as the common multiples of 5 and 7. So, figuring out the number of integral multiples of 35 under 400 will give the answer.
To do that divide the number 400 with 35. On performing the division the quotient will be 11 and the remainder will be 15.
Therefore 11 persons out of 400 will get both the prizes.
Similarly if you want to find the number of person getting ipod then divide 400 with 5. The quotient will be 80. ∴ 80 people will get ipod.
And for psp, divide 400 with 7. The quotient will be 57. ∴ 57 people will get psp.
In these divisions, consider just the quotient, here remainder is of no use.
Answer:
5.6 gallons.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we take x gallons of 25% grape juice then it will contain 
gallons of pure grape juice.
Again, if we take y gallons of 75% grape juice then it will contain 
gallons of pure grape juice.
If we mix them then the total volume will become x + y = 7 gallons ...... (1)
Again the mixture will become 35% juice.
So, 
⇒ 0.25x + 0.75y = 0.35x + 0.35y
⇒0.1x = 0.4y
⇒x = 4y........ (2)
Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get, 5y = 7, ⇒ y = 1.4 gallons
Hence, x = 4y = 5.6 gallons
Therefore, the 25% grape juice was mixed by 5.6 gallons. (Answer)
-3 on a number line would look like 3 right from 0.
Let's just say we have a number line. A number line is a line that represents numbers. I'll say the positive side is on the top/left and the negative side (-3) on the bottom/right. -3 is a negative number. There is the sign (-) before 3. That indicates it's a negative number. Since it's a negative and 3, we move 3 down or right.
