Answer:

6.25 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make a proportion expression:

2.5/48 = x/120

Let x be the amount of sugar needed to make 120 sugar cookies.

Cross multiply:

120*2.5=48x

48x=300

x=6.25

So, you would need 6 1/4 cups or 6.25 cups of sugar to make 120 sugar cookies.

10% of 140 is 14. 
to solve you first must do 10/100 = 14/x
cross multiply and you get 10x = 1400
divide 1400 by 10 and you get 140

The bear lake is 24 miles long. Suppose John starts cycling art one end at 20 m.p.h. and Ramona starts at the other end at 15 m.
Fed [463]

Answer:

24/35 hours  or 0.69 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

Let

x-----> distance traveled by John

(24-x) ----> distance traveled by Ramona

The time is equal to divide the distance by the speed

so

x/20=(24-x)/15

15x=20(24-x)

15x=480-20x

15x+20x=480

35x=480

x=480/35 miles

the time is equal to

t=x/20

t=480/(20*35)=24/35=0.69 hours

A freezer can be bought on hire purchase by making a desposiy of 15% of the cash price which is $2975 the interest which is 20%
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The deposit

= 15% × $2975

= 15/100 × $2975

= 0.15 × $2975

= $446.25

b. The hire purchase price

Outstanding balance = $2975 - $446.25 = $2528.75

20% of outstanding balance

= 20% × $2528.75

= 0.2 × $2528.75

= $505.75

Hire purchase price

= $2975 + $505.75

= $3480.75

c. The difference the hire purchase price and cash price

= $3480.75 - $2975

= $505.75

d. The difference as a percentage of the cash price.

= ($505.75 / $2975) × 100

= 0.17 × 100

= 17%
