Suppose Alex has 3x stamps, Freddy has 5x stamps. After Freddy gives Alex 10 stamps, Alex has 3x+10 while Freddy has 5x-10
the new ratio is 7 to 9, so we have the equation: (3x+10)/(5x-10)=7/9
9(3x+10)=7(5x-10)
27x+90=35x-70
160=8x
x=20
So Alex has 3*20=60 stamps while Freddy has 5*20=100. Together they have 160

9. Triangle Construction pays Square Insurance $5,980
xxTIMURxx [149]

The triangle pay $32 more for that day than it paid per day during the first period of time.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

              Triangle Construction pays Square Insurance $5,980

               To insure a construction site for 92 days

               To extend the  insurance beyond the 92 days costs $97 per day

               Triangle extends the insurance by 1 day

Step:1

              Insurance per day from the 92 days period,

                                                                           = \frac{Total insuratio for 92 days}{Period}

               Where, Total insurance for 92 days = $ 5,980

                                                               Period = 92 days

               From the values, equation becomes,

                                                                            =\frac{5980}{92}

                                                                           = $ 65 per day

Step:2

              Insurance per day after the 92 days,

                                                                           = $ 97

               Amount Pay for that day than it paid per day during the first period of time,

                                                                            =(97-65)

                                                                           = $32

Result:

             The triangle pay $32 more for that day than it paid per day during the first period of time, if  the Triangle Construction pays Square Insurance $5,980 to insure a construction site for 92 days and to extend the  insurance beyond the 92 days costs $97 per day.

Jon ate too many holiday cookies and gained 2.2 kilograms in December. Then he went on a diet and lost 1.5 kilograms in January.
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight that Jon gained in December = 2.2 kilograms

Weight that Jon lost in January = 1.5 kilograms

Weight that Jon lost in February = 3.7 kilograms

Overall Change in his weight = Total Weight he gained - Total weight he Lost

Total weight he gained is 2.2 kilograms as he only gained weight in December. Total weight he lost will be sum of weights he lost in January and February.

So, total weight Jon lost = 1.5 + 3.7 = 5.2 kilograms

Thus,

Total change in Jon's Weight = 2.2 - 5.2 = -3.0 kilograms

This shows that Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months.

Conclusion:

The statement that best describe the total change in his weight is: Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months
