Answer:

a) 90 stamps

b) 108 stamps

c) 333 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you have ratios, just treat them like you would a fraction! For example, a ratio of 1:2 can also look like 1/2!

In this context, you have a ratio of 1:1.5 that represents the ratio of Canadian stamps to stamps from the rest of the world. You can set up two fractions and set them equal to each other in order to solve for the unknown number of Canadian stamps. 1/1.5 is representative of Canada/rest of world. So is x/135, because you are solving for the actual number of Canadian stamps and you already know how many stamps you have from the rest of the world. Set 1/1.5 equal to x/135, and solve for x by cross multiplying. You'll end up with 90.

Solve using the same method for the US! This will look like 1.2/1.5 = x/135. Solve for x, and get 108!

Now, simply add all your stamps together: 90 + 108 + 135. This gets you a total of 333 stamps!

a young tree grows 6 cm per year. use the equation height = 6 cm x number of years to find how many years the tree would take to
AnnZ [28]
The tree grows 6cm per year and we need to find out how long it will take to grow 1 meter. We know that 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters. So:
6x = 100
x = 16.67
It will take 16.67 years (or one and two-thirds of a year) for the tree to reach 1 meter.

Answer:

Cost of small box of oranges = 7

Cost of small box of oranges = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1)  Let the cost of small box of oranges = x

Let the cost of small box of oranges = y

Step 2)

Equation 1) Matt sells 3 small boxes and 14 large boxes for Php. 203

3x + 14y = 203 -------------------(I)

Equation 2) Ming sells 11 small boxes and 11 large boxes for Php. 220

11x + 11y = 220 ----------------(II)

Step 3:

Multiply equation (I) by 11 and equation (II) by (-3).

(I)*11              33x + 154y =  2233

(II)*(-3)         <u>-33x - 33y = -660 </u>            {Now add and x will be eliminated}

                           121y  = 1573

                               y = 1573/121

y = 13

Substitute y = 13 in equation (II)

11x + 11*13 = 220

11x + 143 = 220

        11x = 220 - 143

        11x = 77

          x = 77/11

x = 7
