Answer:

A) 3.5

16 shovels full

Step-by-step explanation:

9x + 13 = 17x - 15

8x = 28

x = 3.5

20 + 5x = 32 + 4.25x

0.75x = 12

x = 16

A horse takes 3 steps to walk the same distance for which a goat takes 4 steps. Suppose 1 step of the dog covers 1/2 of a metre.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The goat would cover 9 meters in taking 24 steps.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a mistake in the question so the correct question is below:

A horse takes 3 steps to walk the same distance for which a goat takes 4 steps. Suppose 1 step of the horse covers 1/2 of a metre. How many metres would the goat cover in taking 24 steps?

Now, to find the meters goat cover in taking 24 steps.

As 1 step of horse covers = $\frac{1}{2} \ meter.$

So, 3 step of horse covers = $\frac{1}{2} \times 3$ $=\frac{3}{2} =1.5\ meters.$

Thus, 3 steps of horse covers = 1.5 meters.

As given, the horse takes 3 steps to walk the same distance for which a goat takes 4 steps.

So, the distance covers by goat in 4 steps = 1.5 meters.

Now, to get the meters goat cover in taking 24 steps by using unitary method:

If, the distance cover by the goat in 4 steps = 1.5 meters

So, the distance cover by the goat in 1 step = $\frac{1.5}{4}$

Thus, the distance cover by the goat in 24 steps = $\frac{1.5}{4}\times 24$

= $\frac{36}{3}$

= $9\ meters.$

Therefore, the goat would cover 9 meters in taking 24 steps.

Rasheed bought two kinds of candy bars, chocolate and toffee, that came in packages of 2 bars each. He handed out 2/3 of the cho

Contact [7]

Answer:

9 packages of chocolate bars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let he bought c packages of chocolate bars and t packages of toffee bars,

Since, he bought 1 fewer package of chocolate bars than toffee bars.

⇒ c = t - 1 -----(1)

Also, he handed out out $\frac{2}{3}$ of the chocolate bars and $\frac{3}{5}$ of the toffee bars,

If he handed out the same number of each kind of candy bar.

$\implies \frac{2}{3}\times c=\frac{3}{5}\times t$

$10c = 9t$ ( By cross multiplication )

$\implies t=\frac{10}{9}c$ ( Division property of equality )

From equation (1),

$c=\frac{10}{9}c-1$

$1=\frac{10}{9}c-c$

$1=\frac{10c-9c}{9}$

$1=\frac{c}{9}$

$\implies c = 9$

Hence, he bought 9 packages of chocolate bars.
