Answer:

The company bought 9 computers and 11 printers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a company has to buy computers and printers, and each computer, x, costs $ 550 and each printer, y, costs $ 350, if the company spends $ 8,800 and buys a total of 20 machines, to determine how many of each did it buy the following calculation must be performed:

20 x 550 + 0 x 350 = 11,000

15 x 550 + 5 x 350 = 10,000

10 x 550 + 10 x 350 = 9,000

9 x 559 + 11 x 350 = 8,800

Thus, the company bought 9 computers and 11 printers.

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

the maximum number of snow balls can bought back = 1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Mrs. Hector brings total number of giant snow globes = x

As given,

weight of 1 snow globe = 1.5 kg

So,

Weight of x snow globe = 1.5x

As given,

She have to take them in a suitcase of weight 2.4 kg

∴

For number of snow globes we have the equation,

1.5x = 2.4

⇒x = \frac{2.4}{1.5} = 1.6

So, the maximum number of snow balls can bought back = 1.6

A post it note has an area of A square inches.the width of the post it note is 4 inches.which equation represents x,the length o
Alexeev081 [22]

The right answer is Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Area of post it note = A square inches

Width of post it note = 4 inches

Length of post it note = X

We know that;

Area = Length * Width

A=X*4\\A=4X

As we have to find length, we will divide both sides by 4

\frac{A}{4}=\frac{4X}{4}\\\\\frac{A}{4}=X\\\\X=\frac{A}{4}

The equation X=\frac{A}{4} represents the length of post it notes in inches.

The right answer is Option C.

1. In a class of students the ratio of the number of students who like to play football and the number of students who like to p
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Both sports = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

What an interesting question. At first I didn't think it was possible. Then I saw the word only. That made all the difference in the world.

Givens

Football only = 35

Volleyball only = 15

Ratio = 5/3

Equation

Let the number of students who play both = x

Volleyball / Football = (x + 15) /(x + 35) = 3/5

Solution

(x + 15) / (x + 35) = 3/5                  Cross multiply

5*(x + 15) = 3(x + 35)                     Remove the brackets

5x + 75 = 3x + 105                        Subtract 3x from both sides

<u>3x            3x</u>

2x + 75 = 105                               Subtract 75 from both sides

   <u>   - 75   -75  </u>

2x = 30                                        Divide by 2  

2x/2 = 30/2

x = 15

15 people play both sports.
