Answer:

6 green fish

Step-by-step explanation:

green fish = x

(X+3)/60  =  x/40

Cross multiplication

60x = 40x+120

subtract 40x on both sides

20x = 120

Divide both sides by 20

x=6

The aquarium has 3 more yellow fish than green fish  6+3 = 9 (9 yelow)

15 fish in total

60% of 15 = 9

40% of 15 = 6

The town recreation department ordered 100 balls and bats for the summer baseball camp. Balls cost $4.50 each, and bats cost $20
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

76 balls and 24 bats

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where x is the number of balls and y is the number of bats:

x + y = 100

4.5x + 20y = 822

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -20, then combine the equations together:

-20x - 20y = -2000

4.5x + 20y = 822

-15.5x = -1178

x = 76

Then, plug in 76 as x in the first equation to solve for y:

x + y = 100

76 + y = 100

y = 24

So, 76 balls and 24 bats were purchased.

D.) 2.13 < 2.3 is correct. This is stating that 2.3 is greater than 2.13, which is true. In the other possible answers, for example 4.15 > 4.51, this would be false because 4.15 is not greater than 4.51. The open end of the greater than or less than sign will always point to the bigger number.

The product of a+3 and -2a^2+15a+6 is -2a^3+xa^2+51a+18. What is the value of x? Is it 8 ,9,12 or15?
Serggg [28]

Answer:

x = 9 ⇒ second answer

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ (a + 3)(-2a² + 15a + 6) =

  -2a³ + 15a² + 6a - 6a² + 45a + 18 =

  -2a³ + 9a² + 51a + 18

∵ (a + 3)(-2a² + 15a + 6) = -2a³ + xa² + 51a + 18

∴ -2a³ + 9a² + 51a + 18 = -2a³ + xa² + 51a + 18

∴ x = 9
