Answer:50.18
Step-by-step explanation:
8x+17+9x+11=102
17x+28=102
-28. -28
17x=74
<CAD=9x+11=50.18
x=74/17
Answer:
15/20
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x 5 = 20
so
3 x 5 = 15
so (sorry for the repetition)
= 15/20
Answer: 3 kids take 3 pieces of candy each
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of children that took 3 pieces is x ( total take 3*x pieces of candy)
Number of children that took 5 pieces is y ( total take 5*y pieces of candy)
1 child took 1 piece that actually means that x+y=18 and 3*x+5*y=84.
( Because total number of all kids is 19. We just deduct one kid (Let his name is John) who took only 1 candy. So we have 19-1 =18 kids without John. The similar is with the candies. Total number is 85. We deduct 1 piece which John has taken. )
So we have 2 equations or the system of 2 equations:
1). x+y=18
2). 3*x +5*y=84
Multuply both sides of equation 1) by 3
We have 3*x+3*y=18*3
Deduct 3*y from both sides of this equation
3*x+3*y-3*y=54-3*y
3*x=54-3*y
Substitute 3*x in equation 2). by 54-3*y
2) 54-3*y+5*y=84
2*y=30
y=15 ( kids take 5 pieces of candy each)
Using equation 1) find x
x+15=18
x=3 (kids take 3 pieces of candy each)
K:A
5:3 (before)
15:9
since the total number of stamps didn't change, the total ratio should be the same.
7:5(after)
14:10
so this means 1 unit is 10stamps.
14-10=4
4 X 10= 40
Kaye have 40 more stamps than Alberto.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Base fee = $17.99
Additional charge = $0.95 for each mile driven
If Kevin paid $157.64 when he returned the truck and we want to find out how many miles he drove the truck, step 1 would be to subtract the base fee.
157.65 - 17.99 = 139.65
This means that the remaining $139.65 is how much he paid for the miles he drove.
Since we know each mile costs $0.95.
Simply divide $139.65 by $0.95 to work out how many miles he drove.
Miles driven = 139.65 / 0.95 = ?
