Answer:

The answer is three and one third hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If Oscar spent two thirds an hour for five nights doing homework, then we would have night one is two thirds, the next night he spent one and one third, the next night would be 2 hours total, then the next night would add another 2/3 making it 2 2/3, finally the last night is two thirds of an hour making it a total of 3 and 1/3 hours spent on homework that week. Hope this helps

The ice cream shop sells sundaes for $2 each and banana splits for $3 each. One day, the shop sold 8 more sundaes than banana sp
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

$82 sundaes

$74 banana split

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one :

Given data

Cost of sundaes =$2 each

Cost of banana split =$3 each

Let the number of sundaes bought be x

And the number of banana split bought be y

The total is x+y

The shop sold 8 more Sundaes than the Banana split

x=8+y—-------1

Total amount made = $156

Therefore the system of equation for the situation is

x=8+y----—----------1

2x+3y=156---------2

But x=8+y

8+y+y=156

8+2y=156

2y=156-8

2y=148

Divide both sides by 2

y=148/2

y=74

On That day they sold $74 banana split

And also they sold x=8+74=$82 sundaes

Greta is trying to determine the portion of green candies in various bags of green and yellow candies. Using the information bel
IrinaK [193]

Answer: a) \dfrac{1}{3} b) \dfrac{71}{100} c) \dfrac{5}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

There are green and yellow candies in each bag.

Bag A: Two thirds of the candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?

Part of yellow candies in bag A = \dfrac{2}{3}

Part of green candies in bag A would be

1-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{3-2}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{3}

Bag B: 29 % of the candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?

Percentage of candies are yellow = 29%

Portion of candies are green is given by

1-\dfrac{29}{100}\\\\=1-0.29\\\\=0.71\\\\=\dfrac{71}{100}

Bag C: 4 out of every 9 candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?

Portion of yellow candies = \dfrac{4}{9}

Portion of green candies would be

1-\dfrac{4}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{9-4}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{9}

Hence, a) \dfrac{1}{3} b) \dfrac{71}{100} c) \dfrac{5}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of Jeans = $78.35

30% coupon = 30% × $78.35 = $23.51

1% local option tax = 1% × $78.35 = $0.78

Total cost of jeans = $78.35 - $23.51 + $4.70 + $0.78 = $60.32
