Answer: 266,667 bottles
Step-by-step explanation:
- 80/300 people preferred soft drink z. This as a decimal is 0.2666
This means that out of the million, 0.2666666666666667% need to be soft drink z
1,000,000x0.2666666666666667 =266,666.667
This can be rounded to 266,667 bottles of soft drink z
(I chose to include the whole decimal for the most accurate results, and save rounding for the last step)
<u>Answer:
</u>
Kyle gave 2/7th of his money to his wife and spent 3/5 of the remainder. If he had $300 left, the money had by Kyle at first is $1050
<u>Solution:
</u>
Step 1:
Consider “x” as the money which Kyle had initially.
From question, Kyle gave 2/7th of his money to his wife. So the remaining money left with Kyle is given as,

----- eqn 1
Now the remaining money left with Kyle is 5/7th.Given that Kyle spent 3/5 of the remaining money.
Now the remaining money left with Kyle is given as

Now kyle is left with $300, which is 2/5th of the initial money x .
We get equation as

2x = 1500
x = 750
Now Kyle is left with 750$ which is 5/7th of the initial amount x.( by using eqn 1)
We get equation as

5x = 5250
x = 1050
So the amount had by Kyle at first is $1050
$20 is the base cost (y intercept)
$0.50 is the cost per ride (slope)
Plug into an equation
Y = 20 + 0.50x
35 = 20 + 0.50x
15 = 0.5x, x = 30
Solution: 30 rides
