Answer:
16 pieces of spearmint gum
Step-by-step explanation:
For every five pieces of peppermint gum, there are 2 pieces of spearmint gum.
First, divide the total number of peppermint gum by 5:
40/5 = 8
Multiply this number by 2 (pieces of spearmint) to get the number of spearmint gum pieces:
8 x 2 = 16
Proof:
Ratio is 40 : 16, dividing this by 8 will reduce the ratio to 5:2
Answer: the total amount of money that they wanted to raise is $2400
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the total amount of money that Keelan and her friends want to raise.
After the first event they raise $240 which is 10% of the total amount they want to raise. The amount of money that raised after the first event is expressed as
10/100 × x = 0.1 × x = 0.1x
Therefore,
0.1x = 240
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.1, it becomes
x = 240/0.1
x = $2400
Answer:
so this is trapezoid
Step-by-step explanation:
the missing length would be the height means "a"
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
so
∠DEF=∠ECD+∠CDE
substitute the given values
solve for x
Combine like terms
Group terms
Find the measure of angle CDE
substitute the value of x
Interest = Pin = principal * interest rate * number of years
Let interest rate be i, then
600*i*2+150*i*4=90
1200i+600i = 90
i=90/(1200+600)=90/1800=1/20=0.05 or 5%
