Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P=2K

50K+75P=1200, using P from above makes this equation become

50K+75(2K)=1200

50K+150K=1200

200K=1200

K=6, since P=2K

P=2(6)=12

So 12 puppies and 6 kittens were adopted.

In 2008 election there was 28 blue states and 22 red states express the red and blue states as fractions in lowest terms of the
Basile [38]
Let's start with the blue states. Out of 50 states, 28 of them were blue.
Therefore, the fraction would be 28/50. Let's reduce it.
28/50=14/25 --> these are the lowest terms for this fraction
Use a calculator to find the decimal solution --> 14/25= .56

Now, let's do the red states. Out of the 50 states, 22 of them were blue.
22/50=11/25 --> lowest terms
Use a calculator --> 11/25= .43

Brittany buys 2.55 pounds of turkey for $5.96 per pound and 3.7 pounds of
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Brittany needs another $3.7405.              

Step-by-step explanation:

Per pound Cost of turkey = $5.96 per pound

The amount Brittany buys the turkey = 2.55 pounds

Brittany's cost for turkey = 2.55 × $5.96 = $15.198

Per pound cost for cheese = $3.35 per pound

The amount Brittany buys the cheese = 3.7 pounds

Brittany's cost for cheese = 2.55 × $3.35 = $8.5425

So,

Brittany's total cost = Turkey cost + Cheese cost

                                = $15.198 + $8.5425

                                = $23.7405

As brittany gave the clerk 20 dollars.

So, the amount she further needs will be:

$23.7405 - $20 =  $3.7405

Therefore, Brittany needs another $3.7405.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Your question is missing the figure, so the figure for your question is attached below:

Answer:

shade 2 strips out of 4 to get fraction strip equivalent to Mandy's fraction strip

Step-by-step explanation:

As Mandy shaded the 3 trips out of the total six strips. It shows the fraction of  \frac{3}{6}

and \frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}

To shade the given fraction strip so that it represents a fraction that is equivalent to Mandy's fraction strip, we should shade 2 stripes out of 4 that is equivalent to \frac{1}{2}

i.e. \frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}

My Fraction Strip is equivalent to Mandy's Fraction Strip because both are equal to \frac{1}{2}
