Answer:

The number of

Fiction books = x = 2400 fiction books

Non fiction books = y = non fiction books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of

Fiction books = x

Non fiction books = y

The libary has 4,000 books in total.

Hence: x + y = 4000........ Equation 1

The number of fiction books in a libary is %150 of the number of non-fiction books.

x = 150% of y

x = 150/100 × y

x = 1.5y

We substitute 1.5y for x in Equation 1

x + y = 4000

1.5y + y = 4000

2.5y = 4000

y = 4000/2.5

y = 1600 non fiction books

Solving for x

x = 1.5y

x = 1.5 × 1600

x = 2400 fiction books.

Therefore,

The number of

Fiction books = x = 2400 fiction books

Non fiction books = y = non fiction books

Explain how to get the volume of this figure
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

350 meters cubed.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you visualize it, there are two rectangular prisms: one flat one on the top, and one large one on the bottom.

The width of the top one is 5 meters. The length is 7 meters. The height is 8 - 5 = 3 meters. So, one prism has a volume of 5m x 7m x 3m.

The width of the bottom one is 7 meters. The length is 7 meters. The height is 5 meters. So, the bottom prism has a volume of 7m x 7m x 5m.

(5 * 7 * 3) + (7 * 7 * 5)

= (35 * 3) + (49 * 5)

= 105 + 245

= 350

So, the volume of the figure is 350 meters cubed.

Hope this helps!

Ameen went to the salon and had 3/8 of an inch of hair cut off. The next day she went back and asked for another 1/2 of an inch
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Total hair cut off  = \frac{7}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Ameen went to the salon and had \frac{3}{8} of an inch of hair cut off. The next day she went back and asked for another \frac{1}{2} of an inch to be cut off.

To find - How much hair did she have cut off in all?

Proof -

Given that,

Firstly,

She cut off her hair = \frac{3}{8}

Then,

She cut off her hair = \frac{1}{2}

So,

Total hair cut off = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{1}{2}

                           = \frac{3 + 4}{8} = \frac{7}{8}

⇒Total hair cut off  = \frac{7}{8}
