Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

50 - 16 = 34

34 / 2 = 17

34 + 17 = 51, which is too much; so we take 1 souvenir out which would be 16.

Quick check:

34 + 16 = 50

Hope this helps!

Mr. Marcucci received a bonus of $496 from his employer. He has to pay 33% of his bonus to taxes. How much will Mr. Marcucci pay
tiny-mole [99]
Edit: 33% is not \frac{1}{3}, therefore my solution is wrong. The correct answer is 0.33 x 496, which is $163.68

The following is the original solution, which is incorrect. 
33% = \frac{1}{3}. Multiply the bonus of $496 by \frac{1}{3} to get the solution of \frac{496}{3}, or 165 and \frac{1}{3}

Therefore the solution is $165.33

What is the value of x in the equation 2(6x+4)-6+ 2x = 3(4x+3)+1 ?<br> 1
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Here is the process I did:

2(6x+4)-6+2x=3(4x+3)+1

Step 1: Distribute the 2 to the numbers in the parentheses (6x +4) on the left side of the equation

6x(2)+4(2)-6+2x=3(4x+3)+1

12x+8-6+2x=3(4x+3)+1

Step 2: On the left side of the equation combine like terms

x's go with x's (12x and 2x):

(12x + 2x)+8-6=3(4x+3)+1

14x+8-6=3(4x+3)+1

normal numbers go with normal numbers ( 8 and -6):

14x+(8+(-6))=3(4x+3)+1

14x+2=3(4x+3)+1

Step 3: Distribute the 3 to the numbers in the parentheses (4x+3) on the right side of the equation

14x+2=4x(3) +3(3) + 1

14x+2=12x + 9 + 1

Step 4: On the right side of the equation combine like terms

normal numbers go with normal numbers ( 9 and 1):

14x+2=12x + (9 + 1)

14x+2=12x + 10

Step 5: Bring 2 from the left side to the right by subtracting it to both sides

14x+(2-2)=12x + (10-2)

14x = 12x + 8

Step 6: Bring 12x from the right side to the left by subtracting it to both sides

(14x - 12x) = (12x - 12x) + 8

2x = 8

Step 7: Isolate x by dividing 2 to both sides

x = 4

Hope this helped!

Cole paid $24 for two calculators and one pack of pens. Kai paid $45 for three calculators and two packs of pens. Cole and Kai b
FrozenT [24]

$2.00 more.

gathered info from question:

Kai paid $45

Cole paid $24

It is $6 for each pack of pens

So I did 24- 6 (pack of pens) = 18 (what he used for calculators) and then did  18/2 because he bought two calculators. He paid 9 dollars for each calculator

Kai bought two packs of pens = 12 dollars. 45-12=33, how much he used for the calculators. He bought three calculators so I did 33/3=11. He used 11 dollars for each calculator.

11-9=2.

Kai paid $2.00 more than Cole.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The area of a sector GHJ is 36.3\ cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

we know that

The area of a circle is equal to

A=\pi r^{2}

we have

r=8\ cm

substitute

A=\pi (8)^{2}

A=64\pi\ cm^{2}

step 2

Remember that the area of a complete circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

so

by proportion find the area of a sector by a central angle of 65 degrees

\frac{64\pi}{360}=\frac{x}{65}\\ \\x=64\pi (65)/360

Use \pi =3.14

x=64(3.14)(65)/360=36.3\ cm^{2}
