Answer:

6 pairs

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given a ratio/proportion problem and 3 values and 1 variable then we can use the Rule of three to solve this problem. We simply multiply the diagonal values available and divide by the 3 value to find the variable of the ratio like so...

4 pairs  <======>   $90.52

d pairs  <======>   $135.78

(4 * 135.78) / 90.52 = 6 pairs

Finally, we can see that Justin ended up buying a total of 6 pairs of sneakers.

Flura [38]

Answer:

180 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

larger box: 8*3*5 = 120

here we see that one side of the smaller box is unlabeled. but the total side length is 7, and the larger box is 3 long, so:

smaller box= (7-3)*3*5 = 60

total=120+60=180

Using the porpotions: WHIP= (Walks+Hits) divide by Innings Pitched. The pitcher wants to lower his WHIP from 1.53 to 1.3. How ma
BaLLatris [955]
This relates to ur previous question....there were 85 innings last question and 130 walks + hits which gave a whip score of 1.53......so if he wants to lower his whip (without changing his walks or hits) to 1.3....
130 / (85 + x) = 1.3....multiply both sides by (85 + x)
130 = 1.3(85 + x)
130 = 110.50 + 1.3x
130 - 110.50 = 1.3x
19.5 = 1.3x
19.5 / 1.3 = x
15 = x

he would have to pitch 15 more innings without any walks or hits to reach a goal of 1.3 whip score. This is not a reasonable goal.....have u ever seen a baseball game where a pitcher pitched 15 innings without any walks or hits ? And since a game consists of 9 innings....he would be 3 innings short of 2 games (thats if they dont go into overtime), and he would have to pitch a no hitter....and that is highly unlikely.

A kitten and a puppy found a sausage which is 14cm long and started eating it simultaneously from each end. The kitten is eating
julsineya [31]

It takes them 12 seconds to eat the whole sausage.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is the rate of change of distance.

Analysis:

If kitten eats x cm, then puppy will eat 14 - x cm

speed = d/t

speed of kitten = 1/2

speed of puppy = 2/3

1/2 = x/t

2/3 = 14 - x / t

t = 2x--------1

2t = 3(14 - x ) -------- 2

substitute t in equation 2

2(2x) = 3(14 - x)

4x = 42 - 3x

7x = 42

x = 42/7 = 6cm

substitute value of x in equation 1

t = 2(60 = 12 seconds.

In conclusion, it takes the both animals 12 seconds to finish the sausage.

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

{x}^{2}  - 14x + 48 = 0 \\  {x}^{2}  - 6x -8 x + 48 = 0 \\ x(x - 6) - 8(x - 6) = 0 \\ (x - 6)(x - 8) = 0 \\ \boxed{ x = 6\: and \: 8}
