Step-by-step explanation:
given:
$12.50- the price of the tshirts
40- the tshirts they have sold
$850- the raise they need
solve:
$12.50 × 40 = $500 (the price of tshirts and tshirts they have sold)
$850 - $500 = $350 (the raise they need and the money they have so far from the 40 tshirts they have sold)
$350 ÷ $12.50 = 28 (the money they lack and the price of a tshirt)
answer:
thus, they need to sell 28 more tshirts to have the raise of at least $850
hope this helps, good luck! :)
P=2(l+w)
50=2(4+w)
50=8+2w
collect the like terms 50-8=2w
42=2w divide both sides by 2
w=21
Answer:
112 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let T be the total number of students in the band.
From the question,
We were told that 37.5% of the total owns their individual instruments and this amount to 42 students
The total number of students can calculated for as follows:
37.5% x T = 42
37.5/100 x T = 42
Cross multiply to express in linear form
37.5 x T = 100 x 42
Divide both side by 37.5
T = (100 x 42) /37.5
T = 112
Therefore, there are 112 students in the band
First of all, you would use the FOIL method for -5(a + 3). This means to just multiply -5 to all of the values in the parenthesis. This would equal:
-5a -15 = -55
Then after, you would add 15 for both sides and get -5a = -40
Divide by -5 on both sides, you get a = 8.
