Sarah sold 66 posters
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "a" be the number of shirts sold
Let "b" be the number of posters sold
<em><u>Sarah sold a total of 178 t shirts and posters at a festival</u></em>
Therefore,
number of shirts sold + number of posters sold = 178
a + b = 178 ----------- eqn 1
<em><u>She sold 46 more tshirts than poster</u></em>
Number of shirts sold = 46 + number of posters sold
a = 46 + b --------- eqn 2
<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>
46 + b + b = 178
2b = 178 - 46
2b = 132
b = 66
Thus she sold 66 posters
When solving this problem, you need to imagine the diagonal line through the rectangle. This makes two triangles which you can use the pythagorean theorem for. 12 squares plus 48 squared equals 2,448. Find the square root of that at it will be your answer (I don’t have the time to figure it out). 11 squared plus 60 squared is 3,712. Square root tbd... add the label and you’re finished!
1/4 or 25% because...
The probability that Maine picks an apricot is 4/8
The probability that Maine picks an apricot after putting the first apricot back is still 4/8
4/8 x 4/8 = 16/64 = 1/4
I’m not sure what happened while you were writing this, but if I’m reading it right, “My” has 18 books. If “My” has 3 times as many as 6, that also means 3 times 6, which is 18.
