Answer:
<u><em>4 boxes of tiles.</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Both rooms are square, so each has equal sides. Let's set a side to room A as x. It's area would be x^2. Room B has sides = 2x, so it's area would be (2x)^2 or 4x^2. The ratio of the areas B/A = 4x^2/x^2. B/A = 4.
Room B has 4 times the area of A. If one box of tile completes Room A, Room B would need four times that amount, or 4 boxes.
To solve this problem, let us first assign some
variables. Let us say that:
x = pigs
y = chickens
z = ducks
From the problem statement, we can formulate the
following equations:
1. y + z = 30 --->
only chicken and ducks have feathers
2. 4 x + 2 y + 2 z = 120 --->
pig has 4 feet, while chicken and duck has 2 each
3. 2 x + 2 y + 2 z = 90 --->
each animal has 2 eyes only
Rewriting equation 1 in terms of y:
y = 30 – z
Plugging this in equation 2:
4 x + 2 (30 – z) + 2 z = 120
4 x + 60 – 2z + 2z = 120
4 x = 120 – 60
4 x = 60
x = 15
From the given choices, only one choice has 15 pigs. Therefore
the answers are:
She has 15 pigs, 12 chickens, and 18 ducks.
Answer:
15w - 10x + 30.
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(2x - 3w - 6)
= (-5 * 2x) + (-5 * -3w) + (-5 * -6)
= -10x + 15w + 30
= 15w - 10x + 30.
Hope this helps!
Amount spent on the last call = $25 - $22.04 = $2.96 = 296 cents
Number of minutes used for last call = 296 / 8 = 37 minutes.
