6 0

Answer:

72 spaces total

Step-by-step explanation:

The ration is 3:5. The 3 is the empty spaces which is 27. In order to simplify 27 to 3, you have to multiply it by 9. Knowing you have to simplify both sides by the same number you then multiple the 5 by 9 getting 45. The total amount of taken spaces is 45. Add the amount of empty spaces and taken spaces together you get 72 spaces total.

Sam paid $8.28 for 18 stamps.at this rate,how much would it cost Sam to buy 12 stamps
allsm [11]

Answer: It costs $5.52 to Sam to buy 12 stamps.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sam paid $8.28 for 18 stamps.

Thus, the cost of 18 stamps = $8.28

Then the cost of 1 stamp=\frac{8.28}{18}

Thus, the cost of 1 stamp=$0.46

With the same rate , the cost of 12 stamps=0.46\times12

Therefore, the cost of 12 stamps= $5.52

hence, it costs $5.52 to Sam to buy 12 stamps.

astraxan [27]

Answer:

60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Ashok and Brian are both walking east along the same path; Ashok walks at a faster constant speed than does Brian. If Brian starts 30 miles east of Ashok and both begin walking at the same time, how many miles will Brian walk before Ashok catches up with him?

Statement 1. Brian’s walking speed is twice the difference between Ashok’s walking speed and his own

Statement 2. If Ashok’s walking speed were five times as great, it would be three times the sum of his and Brian’s actual walking speeds

Solution

A. Brian’s walking speed is twice the difference between Ashok’s walking speed and his own.

Let Brian speed=b

Ashok speed=a

Brian's walking speed=2(a-b)

b=2(a-b)

Divide both sides by 2

b/2=a-b

Ashok catches up in (time)= distance /( relative rate

=30/(a-b)

=30/(b/2)

=30÷b/2

=30*2/b

=60/b.

By that time Brian will cover a distance of

distance=rate*time

=b*60/b

=2(a-b)*60/2(a-b)

=60 miles

(2) If Ashok’s walking speed were five times as great, it would be three times the sum of his and Brian’s actual walking speeds.

5a=3(a+b)

5a=3a+3b

5a-3a=3b

2a=3b
