getting home from trick or treat celia and emma counted their candies. half of celias candies is equal to 2/3 of emmas candies.
blagie [28]

Candies with celias and emmas is 60 and 45 respectively.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Getting home from trick or treat celia and emma counted their candies.  Half of celias candies is equal to 2/3 of emmas candies.  

They had a total of 105 candies altogether.  

We have to find how many candies did each of them have.

Let the number of candies with celias be n, then number of candies with emma will be 105 – n.

Now according to given condition.

\begin{array}{l}{\frac{1}{2} \times \text { celias candies count }=\frac{2}{3} \times \text { emmas candies count }} \\\\ {\rightarrow \frac{1}{2} \times n=\frac{2}{3} \times(105-n)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 \times n=2 \times 2 \times(105-n)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 \times n=2 \times 2 \times(105-n)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 n=4(105-n)} \\\\ {\quad \rightarrow 3 n=420-4 n} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 n=420-4 n} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 n+4 n=420} \\\\ {\rightarrow 7 n=7 \times 60} \\\\ {\rightarrow n=60}\end{array}

Hence, candies with celias and emmas is 60 and 45 respectively.

Given RT below, if S lies on RT such that the ratio of RS to ST is 3:1, find the coordinates of S.
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

S(-2, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached below,=. Frim the diagram, the coordinate of R and T are (-5, 3) and (-1, -5) respectively. If the ratio of RS to ST is 3:1, the coordinate of S can be gotten using the midpoint segment formula as shown;

S(X, Y) = {(ax1+bx2/a+b), (ay1+by1/a+b)} where;

x1 = -5, y1 = 3, x2 = -1, y2 = -5, a = 3 and b =1

Substitute the values into the formula;

X = ax2+bx1/a+b

X = 3(-1)+1(-5)/3+1

X = -3-5/4

X = -8/4

X = -2

Similarly;

Y = ay2+by1/a+b

Y = 3(-5)+1(3)/3+1

Y = -15+3/4

Y = -12/4

Y = -3

Hence the coordinate of the point (X, Y) is (-2, -3)

Billy makes $5 a week in allowance plus $4 for each lawn that he mows.
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

$15 < $4n + $5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Billy needs to make more than $15 between his allowance and the lawns that he mows. This means our inequality should include $15<. Also, since Billy will make $4 per lawn, that means we need to multiply $4 by the number of lawns he needs to mow, n: $4n. So far we have the following: $15<$4n. Next, we know that he makes $5 each week, on top of what he makes mowing each law. This means we need to add the $5 to the $4n. When we put all of these pieces together, we will get the following inequality: $15<$4n+$5
