Answer:

A. 12c + 7b + 27

B. $96

Step-by-step explanation:

We know each CD costs $12 but we don't know the amount. This term can be written as 12c with c standing for the number of CDs.

We also know each book costs $7 but we don't know the amount either. This term can be written as 7b with b standing for the number of books.

We know Maggie only buys 1 purse for $24 so we can leave this term as $24.

Adding all these terms gives us our expression:

12c + 7b + 27

We plug in 4 for c and 3 for b to into the expression and solve for the total money spent.

12(4) + 7(3) + 27

48 + 21 + 27= 96

Maggie spent $96.

There are 30 blue balls, 40 red balls, and 30 white balls in a bag of balls. What is the conditional probability of choosing a b

natulia [17]

Answer: So, the probability will be

$P( \text{getting a blue ball })=\frac{30}{70}=\frac{3}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of blue balls =30

Number of red balls = 40

Number of white balls = 30

Since there are 100 balls in total ,

As we have given that there is no white ball chosen.

So, only 70 balls are left with us , from which we choose a blue ball

So, the probability will be

$P( \text{getting a blue ball })=\frac{30}{70}=\frac{3}{7}$

I will mark as brainliest. Area of a square is 25^m. Find its Perimeter. With working please

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

perimeter = 20 m

Step-by-step explanation:

given the area of the square = 25 m² and

area of a square = s² ( where s is the side length ), then

s² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )

s = $\sqrt{25}$ = 5 ← length of side

perimeter = 4s = 4 × 5 = 20 m

Help with 6 a and b please

34kurt

Answer:

a) $y=\frac{50}{x}$

b) $y=25$ when $x=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=\frac{k}{x}$ since y varies inversely with x.

We need to find the constant, k.

Let's use a point (x,y) on the curve.

We are given an (x,y)=(5,10):

$10=\frac{k}{5}$

Multiply both sides by 5:

$10(5)=k$

$50=k$ .

So the equation is:

$y=\frac{50}{x}$

What is y when x=2?

$y=\frac{50}{2}$

$y=25$
