Step-by-step explanation: They need to win half their games for a .500 record and half or 30 is 15. They already won 10 so they need to win 15- 10 = 5 more games to have a .500 record.
Answer: 1 pound of cheese cost $4.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Nola purchased 2.5 pounds of cheese for 10. $50
Her mother purchased 3 pounds of the same cheese for $12.60
If the cost of the cheese varies directly with the number of pounds purchased, it means that the higher the pounds of cheese purchased, the higher the cost
To determine the the cost of 1 pound of cheese, we wound divide the the cheese by the number of pounds bought.
It becomes 10.5/2.5 = 4.2

Answer:
52°, 40°, 88°
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent "one angle". This is 30% larger than "the other", so we have ...
x = "the other" × (1 +30%)
x/1.30 = "the other"
If x is 36° smaller than the third, then the third is x+36.
__
The sum of the angles is 180°.
x + x/1.3 + (x +36) = 180
x(2 +1/1.3) = 144
x = 144/(2 +1/1.3) = 52
x/1.3 = 52/1.3 = 40
x +36 = 88
The angles of the triangle are 52°, 40°, and 88°.

Choice B and Choice C
====================================================
Reasoning:
c = cost of one crate (some unknown amount in dollars)
c+20 = cost of a crate and a leash
5(c+20) = cost of five sets of items mentioned
5(c+20) = 475 is one equation we can form
5c+100 = 475 is another equation we can form
I used the distributive rule to go from 5(c+20) to 5c+100.
The 100 indicates that the five leashes combine to $100, since 5*20 = 100.
The 5c represents the cost of all five crates combined.
So 5c+100 is another way to express the total cost of all five crates and all five leashes.
---------------
Side note: Solving either equation leads to c = 75, meaning that each crate costs $75.
