Answer: 150 students participate in sports only.

Step-by-step explanation: In a venn diagram, 50 goes in the middle section for the 50 students that participate in both music and sports. 50 also goes on the side for music only. That makes 100 students. 150 goes on the sports only side because 150 + 50 + 50 = 250 students that attend the school.

Cammie can mow 1/2 acre in 25 minutes. If her rate is constant, Cammie says she can mow 1 1/4 acres in one hour. Is Cammie corre
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: No, Cammie is not correct. She can mow  1\frac{1}{5}\ acres in one hour (See explanation).

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the mixed number to an impoper fraction:

1. Multiply the whole number part by the denominator of the fraction and add the product to the numerator.

2. The denominator does not change.

Then:

1\frac{1}{4}=\frac{(1*4)+1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}

Let be "x" the acres Cammie can mow in one hour.

You know that she can mow \frac{1}{2}\ acre in 25 minutes, then you can set up the following proportion (Remember that 1 hour has 60 minutes):

\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{25}=\frac{x}{60}

Solving for "x", you get:

\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{25}=\frac{x}{60}\\\\(60)(\frac{1}{50})=x\\\\x=\frac{6}{5}

Convert from improper fraction to mixed number:

1. When you divide 6 by 5, the quotient is 1. This will be the whole number part.

2. The remainder is 1. This will be the numerator.

3. The denominator does not change.

Then:

x=1\frac{1}{5}

Therefore, she can mow  1\frac{1}{5}\ acres in one hour.

A sandwich store charges a delivery fee to bring lunch to an office.

Delivery cost - D

Meatball sandwich cost  - M

One office pays $40.50 for 5 meatball sandwiches.

40.50 = 5M + D

Another office pays $66.50 for 9 meat ball sandwiches

66.50 = 9M + D

A. How much does each meatball sandwich add to the cost of delivery?

D = 40.50 - 5M = 66.50 - 9M

40.50 - 5M = 66.50 - 9M

9M - 5M = 66.50 - 40.50

4M = 26.00

M = 6.50

B. What is the delivery fee

D = 40.50 - 5M = 40.50 - 5(6.50) = 40.50 - 32.50 = 8.00

Check

66.50 = 9M + D = 9(6.50) + 8 = 58.50 + 8.00 = 66.50

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!!!!! What is the volume of the prism?
AURORKA [14]
Well the answer is 13 and cannot be written in simplest form because 1/2 and 1/2 have the same denominator so you add them together and you get 2/2 which is a whole number then you add the other whole numbers but don’t forget the new whole number then add the 5 and you get 13 cm
