Answer:

30 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Number of pencils shared = 40

Sharing ratio = 2 : 6

Nimah's share = (2 / sum of ratio) * number of pencils

Nimah's share = (2 / 8) * 40

Nimah's share = 80 / 8

Nimah's share = 10 pencils

Jack's share = total number - Nimah's share

Jack's share = 40 - 10

Jack's share = 30

the way you can solve this is by removing all numbers in front of the selected number(in this case, 2 should be removed) then change all numbers behind to 0.

Jayden is running laps at track practice. The track is 2/5 kilometers around. Jayden runs 1 lap in 2 minutes. How many minutes d

Tom [10]

Answer:

0.08 minutes for a kilometer.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the track is 25 kilometers, and he runs 25 kilometers in 2 minutes, he runs a kilometer in 2÷25 minutes or 0.08 minutes which is 4.8 seconds.

I'm pretty sure the track isn't 25 kilometer or he can't run a lap in 2 minutes. But if so, the answer is 0.08 minutes.

You are selling tickets to a play. You have sold (3t+2) tickets for $5 each and (2t+5) tickets for $7 each. Write an expression

aliya0001 [1]

Given that the number of tickets that are sold for $5 is (3t+2) tickets.

The number of tickets that are sold for $7 is (2t+5) tickets.

We need to determine the expression that represents the total number of tickets sold and the simplified expression.

<u>Total number of tickets sold:</u>

The expression for (3t+2) tickets sold for $5 is given by

$5(3t+2)$

The expression for (2t+5) tickets sold for $7 is given by

$7(2t+5)$

The expression for the total number of tickets sold is given by

$5(3t+2)+7(2t+5)$

Thus, the expression that represents the total number of tickets sold is $5(3t+2)+7(2t+5)$

<u>Simplified expression:</u>

We need to simplify the expression $5(3t+2)+7(2t+5)$

Hence, let us multiply the terms within the bracket.

Thus, we get;

$15t+10+14t+35$

Adding the like terms, we have,

$29t+45$

Thus, the simplified expression is $29t+45$
