Answer:

first day: 650, second day: 325

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of miles travelled on the second day and 2x the number of miles travelled on the first day. They add up to 975.

2x+x=975

3x=975

x=325

x represents the number of miles travelled on the second day so they travelled 650 miles on the first day and 325 miles on the second day.

Answer:

650 miles the first day, 325 miles the second day

Step-by-step explanation:

We can call the distance they traveled on the first day as 2x and the distance they traveled on the second day as x. The former is 2x because they traveled twice as far the first day compared to the second day. Since the total distance traveled is 975 miles, we can write the following equation to solve for x:

$2x + x = 975$

$3x = 975$ (Simplify LHS; 2x + x = 3x)

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{975}{3}$ (Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get rid of the coefficient on x)

$x = 325$ (Simplify)

Therefore, $2x = 2 * x = 2 * 325 = 650$ so the final answer is they traveled 650 miles the first day and 325 miles the second day. Hope this helps!

Can someone help with this question

NikAS [45]

1st : Find the volume of the rectangular block:
12 × 10 × 20 = 2400 cm^3.

2nd : Find the volume of a cylinder
$\pi {r}^{2} h$
Where r is radius & h is height.
so:
$\pi \times 2.2 {}^{2} \times 5.0$
= 76.02654222 cm^3

Lastly, divide the volume of the rectangular block by the volume of the cylinder
2400 ÷ 76.026 = 31.5679226

You can't round it up so the answer is F) 31

Brad bought a used bike for $8 more than half of its original price. Brad paid $40 for the bike. What was the original price?

Viefleur [7K]

$\huge\boxed{\$64}$

Start by writing a formula, where $x$ is Brad's purchase price and $y$ is the original price.

$40=8+\frac{y}{2}$

Subtract $8$ from both sides.

$32=\frac{y}{2}$

Multiply both sides by $2$ .

$\boxed{64}=y$

Jenny is selling chocolate bars it for each bar she sells she makes two dollars profit she wants to use The money she earns I’m

andre [41]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Jenny makes a profit of $2 for each bar of chocolate that she sells, if she sells a total of 500 chocolate bars, her profit would be:

Profit for 500 chocolate bars = profit for each chocolate bar * 500 bars

Profit for 500 chocolate bars = $2 per bar * 500 bars

Profit for 500 chocolate bars = $1000

Also she want to buy a laptop worth $998. This would be possible after selling 500 bars because $1000 > $998. After buying the laptop she would have $2 remaining ($1000 - $998)
