Answer:

Cornor has $14.17 initially

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is as follows

Connor has five times as much money as Jayden. Connor gives some money to Jayden. They now have £8.520each. How much did Connor have at the start?

solution

In this question, we are concerned with knowing how much that both had initially.

Let the amount of money Jayden has be £x . Since Cornor has Five times this, he has £5x

Let the amount of money Cornor gave Jayden be £y.

This means ;

5x - y = 8.50 .....(

(i)and also x + y = 8.50 ......(ii)

It is this equations we solve simultaneously

From i, we can say let y= 5x - 8.50, and we insert this into equation ii

x + 5x - 8.50 = 8.50

6x = 17

x = 17/6

x = $2.83

y = 5x - 8.50

y = 5(2.83) - 8.50

y = $5.67

The amount of money Cornor has at first is 5x = 5(17/6)

5x = $14.17

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

39.25 cubic feet of paint will be needed by Ellis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder:

The volume of a cylinder of radius r and height h is given by:

V = \pi r^2h = 3.14r^2h

How much paint will Ellis need to paint all the surfaces of the 10 fenceposts?

This is the combined volume of these 10 fenceposts.

They are each 5 feet tall and have a diameter of 1 foot.

Radius is half the diameter, so r = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5. Also h = 5

10 fenceposts:

Each has the same volume, so:

V = 10(3.14)r^2h = 31.4(0.5)^2(5) = 39.25

39.25 cubic feet of paint will be needed by Ellis.

Express the product in simplest form.
Romashka [77]
\frac{8}{2x+8} *  \frac{ x^{2}-16 }{4}

1. Cross cancel
\frac{4}{2x+8}* \frac{ x^{2} -16}{1}

2. Multiply numerators
4*x²-16 = 4x²-64

3. Multiply denominators
2x+8*1 = 2x+8

\frac{4 x^{2} -64}{2x+8}

4. Divide
\frac{4 x^{2} -64}{2x+8} = 2x-8

5. Simplify
2(x-4)

Answer is 2(x - 4)
