Answer: 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Kendra spent one-third of allowance on a book and two-fifth on snack.

If she had four dollar remaining after purchase

Suppose x is the original amount

\therefore x-\dfrac{x}{3}-\dfrac{2x}{5}=4\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{15x-5x-6x}{15}=4\\\\\Rightarrow 4x=60\\\Rightarrow x=15

Thus, 15$ was her total allowance.

1a. 182 Freshmen were surveyed on whether they participate in a sport. 110 said yes, 40 boys said no, 90 girls were in the surve
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

           yes    no     total

girls     58     32     90

boys    52     40     92

total     110    72     182

Step-by-step explanation:

if 182 freshmen were surveyed and 110 said yes, then 182 - 110 = 72 said no

if 40 boys said no, then 72 - 40 = 32 girls said no

if 90 girls were surveyed, then 182 - 90 = 92 boys were surveyed

if 40 boys said no, then 92 - 40 = 52 said yes

if 32 girls said no, then 90 - 32 = 58 said yes

Line m passes through (-5,0) and (-3,2)
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Yes, they are parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slopes of the lines using rise over run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Find the slope of line M:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(2 - 0) / (-3 + 5)

2/2

= 1

Find the slope of line N:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(4 - 2) / (0 + 2)

2/2

= 1

So, the two lines have the same slope of 1, meaning that they are parallel because parallel lines have the same slope.

They are parallel.

Nataliya [291]
Total distance 5 km; at 5km / 0.65 h =

Second part distance: x; at 6 km/h, during t2

First part distance: 5 - x; at 8.75 km/h, during t1

V = d/t ⇒ t = d/V

t2 = x/6
t1=[5-x]/8.75

t2 + t1 = 0.65

x/6 + [5-x]/8.75 = 0.65

x/6 + 5/8.75 - x/8.75 = 13/20

 x/6 - x/8.75 = 13/20 - 5/8.75

x/6 - 4x/35 =13/20 - 20/35

35x - 24x = (35*6)(35*13 - 20*20)/(20*35)

11 x = 16.5
x = 16.5/11 = 1.5 km
