Answer: b.14
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two shelves, the top shelf 
and the bottom shelf 
.
Now, firstly we are told the top shelf has 10 more than 1/3 the number of books on the bottom shelf. This can be expressed as:
(1)
Then, we are told there are 12 books on the bottom shelf:
(2)
Substituting (2) in (1):
(3)
(4)
(5) This is the number of books on the top shelf
Hence, the correct option is b.
Answer:
Answer:
5:6 --> 10:12
Step-by-step explanation:
A good way to think of this is to provide a perspective: there are 5 boys every time there is 6 girls. So if there is 10 boys, that means there would be 12 girls (because 5 *2 = 10 and 6*2 = 12).
tl:dr: 5 *2 = 10 so 6*2 = 12
Answer:
1 - c
2 - A
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey There!
So for the first one we are given the dimensions of a rectangular prism and they want us to find the volume
Remember to find the volume we use the equation
V = length x width x height
so we just plug in the values
v = 2.6 x 2.1 x 3.9 = 21.294
the closest is 20 so C is your answer
For the second one we are given a triangular prism
and they want us to find the volume
b = base (10.3)
l = length (4)
h = height (7)
7x4=28
28x10.3=288.4
then we divide by 2
288.4/2=144.2
so your selected answer is correct

t = 6.25 years
(about 6 years 3 months)
Equation:
t = (1/r)(A/P - 1)
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 4%/100 = 0.04 per year,
then, solving our equation
t = (1/0.04)((2500/2000) - 1) = 6.25
t = 6.25 years
The time required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $2,500.00 from simple interest on a principal of $2,000.00 at an interest rate of 4% per year is 6.25 years (about 6 years 3 months).
36:
The two distances are the same (out and back), so set them equal.
That is done by having a (rate)(time) equal a (rate)(time).
One time is “x” and the other is “4.8-x.”
One rate is 460 and the other is 500.
460 x = 500 (4.8 -x)
460 x = 2400 - 500x
900 x = 2400
x = 2.5 hours for the slower plane.
4.8- x = 2.3 hours for the faster plane.
