Juan reads 300 pages 5 days which reading rate is equivalent

1 answer:

4 0

60 pages per day!

It is shown that One is reading 300 pages in five days so we need to find a reading rate which would be the total number of pages one reads over the number of days so the substitute does values by doing 300/5 you would get 60 pages per day

Assign two variables for each problem, and write the equations. Do not solve.

Xelga [282]

Call the number of trumpet players "T" and the number of horn players "H".

We can use the given information to set up equations:

1."<span>the number of trumpet players is 4 times the number of French horn players"
$T=4H$

2. "</span><span>There are 35 trumpet and French horn players in the band."
$T+H=35$

If you were asked to solve you could now do it by substitution:
$4H+H=35$
$5H=35$
$H=7$
$T=4H$
$T=4(7)$
$T=28$ </span>

The sum of the tens digit and the hundreds digit of a number is three times the units digit. 1/5 of the sum of all three digits

Crazy boy [7]

Answer: The numbers are:

965

875

785

695

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a 3 digit number that can be written as:

a*100 + b*10 + c

Where a, b, and c are single-digit numbers.

a is the hundreds

b is the tens

c is the unit.

We know that:

"The sum of the tens digit and the hundreds digit of a number is three times the units digit."

a + b = 3*c

" 1/5 of the sum of all three digits is 1 less than the units digit."

(a + b + c)/5 = c - 1

Then we have the two conditions:

a + b = 3*c

(a + b + c)/5 = c - 1

From the first one, we can write:

(a + b)/3 = c

Replacing that in the other equation we get:

(a + b + a/3 + b/3)/5 = a/3 + b/3 - 1

(4/3)*(a + b)/5 = (a/3 + b/3) - 1

(4/15)*(a + b) = (a + b)/3 - 1

(4/15)*(a + b) - (a + b)/3 = - 1

-(1/15)*(a + b) = -1

a = 15 - b

Then we can give different values for b, and find the values of a and c, where a and c must be positive.

b = 9

a = 15 - 9 = 6

Then:

c = (9 + 6)/3 = 5

(notice that a + b = 15, then c will be always equal to 5, reggardless of the values of b and a).

This number will be:

695.

if b = 8, then:

a = 15 - 8 = 7

and c = 5, same as before.

the number is 785.

If b = 7, then:

a = 15 - 7 = 8

The number is 875

if b = 6, then:

a = 15 - 6 = 9

The number is:

965

Each container must hold exactly 1 litre of water Each container must have a minimum surface area

Arada [10]

The containers must be spheres of radius = 6.2cm

<h3>How to minimize the surface area for the containers?</h3>

We know that the shape that minimizes the area for a fixed volume is the sphere.

Here, we want to get spheres of a volume of 1 liter. Where:

1 L = 1000 cm³

And remember that the volume of a sphere of radius R is:

$V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*R^3$

Then we must solve:

$V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*R^3 = 1000cm^3\\\\R =\sqrt[3]{ (1000cm^3*\frac{3}{4*3.14} )} = 6.2cm$

The containers must be spheres of radius = 6.2cm

aalyn [17]

Given that Audra was drawing a perpendicular bisector of segment AB with a compass. She started with line segment AB. Then, she placed her compass point on A and opened the compass more halfway to B.

Her next step will be "Using the width of the compass from the previous step, draw two arcs to the left and right of both A and B".

There are 3 boxes for green chips and 5 boxes for red chips. each box has the same number of chips in it. if there are a total o

Sauron [17]

Answer:

<h2>2 in each box of course</h2>

g= green chips r= red chips

3 boxes of green chips meaning for each box there are <em>2</em> chips so there are 6 green chips. 5 boxes of red chips meaning for each box there are two chips so there are 10 red chips and 6 g + 10r = 16 chips in total
