Answer:

Dad made 90 steps during that period.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x,y,z be the steps made by dad,Anna and Todd.

Given that while dad made 3 steps, Anna made 5 steps.

That is \frac{x}{y}= \frac{3}{5}

           y=\frac{5x}{3}

And for every 3 steps Anna made, Todd made 5 steps.

That is \frac{y}{z}= \frac{3}{5}

            z=\frac{5y}{3} =\frac{5(\frac{5x}{3}) }{3} =\frac{25x}{9}

It is also given that total number of steps made by Anna and Todd is 400.

That is y+z=400

let us plugin y and z in terms of x.

       \frac{5x}{3} +\frac{25x}{9} =400

        \frac{15x}{9} +\frac{25x}{9}=400

       \frac{40x}{9}=400

       x=400X\frac{9}{40} =90steps

Hence Dad made 90 steps during that period.

Please help i need the answer and how you did it
Arturiano [62]
1. First, do 12 x 8 to work out the area of the rectangle, which is 96ft.
Then, to work out the area of a circle, you use the equation πr² to help you. You would multiply π by the radius², which is 16. Now you have just worked out the area of a circle, but not a semicircle, so you would have to divide your answer by two to get the area of this, which would be 25.13 (rounded to 2 d.p).
To get the area of the whole shape, you just have to add the two totals together.
25.13 + 96 = 121.13ft.
Remember to put the units there, or you can lose marks.

Try your best with the next questions! I have written the formulas for the other shapes to help you work out the answers.

Area of a square = Multiply sides together.
Area of rectangle = Multiply width by length.
Area of a circle = Multiply π by the radius².
Area of a semicircle = Multiply π by the radius², and the divide by two.
Area of a triangle = Multiply the base by the height, and then divide by two.

Really hope this helps!

Left Witch needs 3.25 gallons of "Toe of Frog" in her potion. If she can get half a gallon for $2.50, how much will she spend
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

$16.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Half a gallon for $2.50 is the same as a quarter a gallon for $1.25.

If she needs 3.25 gallons, which is 13 quarters, we do $1.25 * 13 = $16.25.

Therefore, she will spend $16.25.

The parents' club will need 100 of the same item for international night. They have a budget of $250. The choices are 100 baseba
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

The parents' club can afford to buy 100 Baseball hats or 100 sports bottles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Item to be bought = 100

Total Budget = $250

Cost of each Baseball Hat = $2.45

Cost of each sports bottles = $2.50

Cost of each flag = $2.75

We need to find which items can they afford to buy.

Solution:

each Baseball Hat = $2.45

100 Baseball Hat = Cost of 100 Baseball Hat

Using Unitary method we get;

Cost of 100 Baseball Hat  = 2.45\times 100 =\$245

each sports bottles = $2.50

100 sports bottles = Cost of 100 sports bottles

Using Unitary method we get;

Cost of 100 sports bottles  = 2.5\times 100 =\$250

each flag = $2.75

100 flags = Cost of 100 flags

Using Unitary method we get;

Cost of 100 flags  = 2.75\times 100 =\$275

Hence from above we can see that;

Cost of 100 Base ball hat and 100 sports bottles are within the budget while Cost of 100 flags exceed the budget.

So we can say that;

The parents' club can afford to buy 100 Baseball hats or 100 sports bottles.
