jekas [21]

Answer:

850.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number at the start be x shoes. Then:

x - 50 - 0.64(x - 50) = 288

x - 0.64x - 50 + 32 = 288

0.36x = 288 + 50 - 32

0.36x = 306

x = 306/0.36 =  850.

(1.)What is the value of 35−3m , when m = 4?
Len [333]
(1.) 35-3m
m= 4

35-3m
= 35-3(4)
= 35-12 (do the multiple/division first before doing the addition/subtraction)
= 23

C. 23

(2.) 1 + x ÷ 5
x = 80

1 + x ÷ 5
= 1+80÷5
= 1+16
= 17

(3.) mx-y
m=5, x=3, and y=8

mx-y
= 5(3)-8
= 15-8
= 7

(4.) 3a+15+bc−6
a=7, b=3, and c=15

3a+15+bc-6
= 3(7)+15+3(15)-6
= 21+15+45-6
= 75
