2 6/7 ÷ 2/3
= 20/7 ÷ 2/3
20/7 × 3/2
= 60/14
reduce to it's lowest term
30/7 = 4 2/7
T = na
because, total equals to ounces of the material times the amount payed.
Answer:
11 people will get both the prizes.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question we need to find common integral multiples of 5 and 7 under 400. As you can see in the figure 35th person is the first one to get both ipod and psp. The LCM (least common multiple) of 5 and 7 which is 35 (!!! <em>I hope you know how to LCM of two integers </em>).
Therefore the integral multiples of 35 will be same as the common multiples of 5 and 7. So, figuring out the number of integral multiples of 35 under 400 will give the answer.
To do that divide the number 400 with 35. On performing the division the quotient will be 11 and the remainder will be 15.
Therefore 11 persons out of 400 will get both the prizes.
Similarly if you want to find the number of person getting ipod then divide 400 with 5. The quotient will be 80. ∴ 80 people will get ipod.
And for psp, divide 400 with 7. The quotient will be 57. ∴ 57 people will get psp.
In these divisions, consider just the quotient, here remainder is of no use.
To find what the answer is for this problem, we need to find out whether each of them have infinite, no, or single solutions. We can do this individually.
Starting with the first one, we need to convert both of the equations into slope-intercept form. y = -2x + 5 is already in that form, now we just need to do it to 4x + 2y = 10.
2y = -4x + 10
y = -2x +5
Since both equations give the same line, the first one has infinite solutions.
Now onto the second one. Once again, the first step is to convert both of the equations into slope-intercept form.
x = 26 - 3y becomes
3y = -x + 26
y = -1/3x + 26/3
2x + 6y = 22 becomes
6y = -2x + 22
y = -1/3 x + 22/6
Since the slopes of these two lines are the same, that means that they are parallel, meaning that this one has no solutions.
Now the third one. We do the same steps.
5x + 4y = 6 becomes
4y = -5x + 6
y = -5/4x + 1.5
10x - 2y = 7 becomes
2y = 10x - 7
y = 5x - 3.5
Since these two equations are completely different, that means that this system has one solution.
Now the fourth one. We do the same steps again.
x + 2y = 3 becomes
2y = -x + 3
y = -0.5x + 1.5
4x + 8y = 15 becomes
8y = -4x + 15
y = -1/2x + 15/8
Once again, since these two lines have the same slopes, that means that they are parallel, meaning that this one has no solutions.
Now the fifth one.
3x + 4y = 17 becomes
4y = -3x + 17
y = -3/4x + 17/4
-6x = 10y - 39 becomes
10y = -6x + 39
y = -3/5x + 3.9
Since these equations are completely different, there is a single solution.
Last one!
x + 5y = 24 becomes
5y = -x + 24
y = -1/5x + 24/5
5x = 12 - y becomes
y = -5x +12
Since these equations are completely different, this system has a single solution.
To solve this, just take $80 and subtract her amount of money she has now, which is 8. $80-$8=$72
She needs $72
