Answer:

Each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the bags are identical, Let them Number of candies in each bag sue had be x. Thus, she had 5x candies. Since she lost 25 pieces, then she now has;

5x - 25 candies left.

We are told that Ted had 4 bags with the same number of candies like Sue had. Thus, he has 4x candies.

He mysteriously found 10 additional pieces. Total Ted now has is;. 4x + 10

Finally, we are told that Sue and Ted now have an equal number of candies.

Thus;

5x - 25 = 4x + 10

Rearranging, we have;

5x - 4x = 25 + 10

x = 35

Thus, each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy

Lisa [10]

Answer:

100% = 30. There are 30 students in Mr.Fulton's class

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have 12 as 40%, we divide it by 2 to get the base value which is 6=20%.

Now we multiply the base by 5 so 20% x 5= 100% and 6 x 5 equals 30. so 100% = 30

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, in this problem, we're given the size of the of the file. We are also given the rate of change of the amount-downloaded function.

Notice how the transfer rate is in units of time (25.2 MB/s means 25.2 MB per second).

If we want to calculate how <em>long</em> it'll take to download the entire file, we have to divide the file size by the amount of the MB downloaded in one second. (This is assuming the download rate is constant, in the case it isn't constant, you would use calculus) This will find the total number of seconds needed to download the entire file.

We're essentially solving for t in the equation

400.6 = 25.2t

t = \frac{400.6}{25.2} = \frac{2003}{126} = 15.897
