At a fish market, a pound of salmon costs $12 and a pound of shrimp costs $18. Mrs. Donnelly wants to buy 2 1/3 pounds of salmon

and 3 1/2 pounds of shrimp. If she has $93, can she buy the amounts of salmon and shrimp she wants? If yes, how much money will she have left over? If no, how much more does she need?

Answer:

Yes and she would have $2 left over because all the food costs $91.

Step-by-step explanation:

We should set up an equation so that everything makes sense. A calculator would be wise for this problem, but I am going to lay it out anyhow.

We should convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions to not be confused. 3 1/2 becomes 7/2 or 3.5 and 2 1/3 becomes 7/3.

From your wording, we can assume that the money Mrs. Donnelly has is either greater than or equal to $93.

Thus, we have 12*(7/3) + 18*(7/3) is equal to or greater than 93 (this is an inequality).

The math shows that the food costed 91 and so she only has $2 left.

What is (5+3)+7=5+(3+7) is it Associative, Identity, Commutative or Substitution?
timama [110]

Answer:

Associative  

Step-by-step explanation:

The associative property of addition states that you can add numbers however they are grouped inside parentheses.  

It doesn't matter where you put the parentheses. You will always get the same answer.

For example,

\begin{array}{rcl}(5 + 3) + 7 & = & 5 + (3 + 7)\\8 + 7& = & 5 + 10\\15 & = & 15\\\end{array}

A 3 kg toy car rests st the top of a 0.45 meter ramp. What is its gravitational potential energy?
salantis [7]
<span>gravitational potential energy : P
Gravity : g
Mass : m
height : h

P = mgh  = 3 x 9.8 x 0.45 = 13.23 Joule

Potential energy is work , from the known formula

W = Fd ( work = force x distance ) 

W = P ( in case of potential energy height change)

F is the force acting on the body in case of ideal ramp , the only force acting is the weight of the body

F = mg ( not just <m> as the force is mg (Newton) gravity effect)

d is the displacement in direction of force, as we have considered the force to be the weight not it's component in direction of the ramp , the change in displacement is the change in height so

d = h 

W = Fd = (F = mg) x (d = h) = mgh 

W = mgh = P
