Hello there!
First, we need to admit that math is a hard subject. So, how do we handle hard stuff? We find an easy way. Right?
Well same goes here. They give the fractions to drive us crazy. Let's find the easiest way...
The easiest way is to turn them into decimals.
1 3/7 = 1.42 which is the amount of pages he reads
2/3 = 0.67 minute.
The are asking us how many pages does he reads per minute.
So we gonna say:
Charlie reads 1.42 pages ......> 0.67
Charlie reads x pages.............> 1minute
Cross multiply
0.67 * x = 1 * 1.42
0.67x = 1.42
x = 1.42/0.67
x = 2.11
So, Charlie reads 2.11 pages in 1 minute.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have questions about the answer.
Thanks!
Answer:
Lin = 48 seconds
Diego = 30 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to divide the total ounces of drink by the amount that each one drank per second, for each case.
Mathematically speaking:
Lin = 12 ounces / (1/4) ounces/second = 12/ (1/4) = 48 seconds
Diego = 20 ounces / (2/3) ounces/second = 20/ (2/3) = 30 seconds
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To make the problem easier to solve, we will set it up as the equation of the length of time of each class times the number of classes equals the total amount of minutes. However, since we don't know the number of classes, we'll symbolize our two unknowns with two variables.
75x + 45y = 705
(75x + 45y)/15 = 705/15
5x + 3y = 47
y = (47-5x)/3
It looks like we can't simplify the equation any more, so now it is a matter of trial and error. The minimum number of Saturday classes means the maximum number of weekday classes. We first will test for the maximum by assuming there are no Saturday classes, then will work our way up until x is an integer.
If x = 0
(47-5(0))/3 = 47/3 = 15.6666
If x = 1
(47-5(1))/3 = 42/3 = 14
This works. Therefore, the maximum number of weekday classes is 14, or choice b.
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the original.price
so x * 75/100= 14625
x=19500
so the price of car before it was reduced was 19500
Answer:For one bush it would be $185 and for one tree it would be $189.
Step-by-step explanation:185 + 189 = 374
