You need to do 14 divided 3/12 which gives you the cost per pound
I take it that only 7 stamps are misplaced and that we are asked for the total value of the stamps including those which have been misplaced.
If each is worth $0.15 then, the total worth of 7 stamps is $1.05. Then, we add this value to the value of his remaining stamps, $5.55, the answer would be $6.60.
Answer:
x = 60
1) 60
2) 360
3) 160
60 + 360 + 160 = 580
Step-by-step explanation:
1) x
2) 6x
3) x + 100
x + 6x + x + 100 = 580
8x = 580 - 100
x = 480/8
x = 60
Answer:
z = 189/44
Step-by-step explanation:
The "varies jointly" relationship can be expressed by ...
y = kxz
We can find k from the given values.
40 = k(10)(9)
40/90 = k = 4/9 . . . divide by the coefficient of k
Now we want to find z for given values of x and y. That can be found from ...
y = (4/9)xz
9y/(4x) = z . . . . . multiply by 9/(4x)
Filling in the new numbers, we have ...
z = 9·105/(4·55)
z = 4 13/44 = 189/44 ≈ 4.2954...(repeating 54)
Answer:
6⅔ minutes
Or, 6 minutes 40 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
X/10 + X/20 = X/T
(2X+X)/20 = X/T
3X/20 = X/T
3/20 = 1/T
T = 20/3
T = 6⅔ mins
