Answer:

22 fourth graders

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation, with the total amount on one side and the amount per cone on the other. Let x represent the unknown number of students:

1.47x=32.34

Now we need to solve for x. Do this by isolating it:

Undo the multiplication on the left side by dividing both sides by 1.47:\frac{1.47x}{1.47} =\frac{32.34}{1.47}

The 1.47 on the left now cancels each other out. Simplify:

x=22

x equals 22, so there are 22 fourth graders in the class.

:Done

The five members of the Traynor family each buy train tickets. During the train ride, each family member buys a boxed lunch for
larisa [96]

Let's assume

the price of each train ticket is x

we are given

total number of family members =5

so, total cost of ticket = total number of family members*the price of each ticket

so, total cost of ticket =5*x

so, total cost of ticket =5x

now, we have

each family member buys a boxed lunch for $6.50

so, total cost of lunch box = total number of family members*price of each lunch box

so, total cost of lunch box = 5*6.50

total cost of trip = total cost of ticket+total cost of lunch box

we are given

total cost of trip is $248.50

now, we can plug values

and we get

248.50=5x+5*6.50

now, we can solve for x

248.50=5x+32.5

248.50-32.5=5x+32.5-32.5

216=5x

\frac{5x}{5} =\frac{216}{5}

x=43.2

so,

the price of each train ticket is $43.2..........Answer

Answer:

  B  (2 violet)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the colors be represented by their first letter. Then the balances give rise to two equation:

  o +y +b +v = r +g +b

  o +y +v = g +v

Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...

  (o +y +b +v) -(o +y +v) = (r +g +b) -(g +v)

  b = r +b -v

Adding v-b to both sides, we have ...

  b +(v -b) = r +b -v +(v -b)

  v = r

Multiplying this result by 2, we can match the final balance:

  2r = 2v . . . . . . . choice B

Given:

Consider the pentagon MVEDR is dilated with the origin as the center of dilation using the rule (x,y)\to(\dfrac{2}{3}x,\dfrac{2}{3}y) to create pentagon M'V'E'D'R'.

To find:

The correct statement.

Solution:

If a figure dilated by factor k, then the rule of dilation is

(x,y)\to (kx,ky)

Here,

If k>1, then the image is larger than the original figure.

If k<1, then the image is smaller than the original figure.

We have,

(x,y)\to(\dfrac{2}{3}x,\dfrac{2}{3}y)

Here, M'V'E'D'R' is image and MVEDR is original figure. The scale factor is

k=\dfrac{2}{3}

Pentagon M'V'E'D'R' is smaller than pentagon MVEDR because the scale factor is less than 1.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
