Latoya, Milan, and Hong served a total of 154 orders Monday at the school cafeteria. Latoya served 10 more orders than Milan, Ho

Tems11 [23]

Orders served by Latoya, Milan and Hong are 34, 24, 96 respectively.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Latoya, Milan, and Hong served a total of 154 orders Monday at the school cafeteria.

Let orders served by Latoya ne a, orders served by Milan be b and orders served by hong be c.

Then, a + b + c = 154 ⇒ (1)

Latoya served 10 more orders than Milan, ⇒ a = b + 10

Hong served 4 times as many orders as Milan. ⇒ c = 4b

We have to find how many orders did they each serve?

Now, substitute a and c values in (1)

(b + 10) + b + 4b = 154

b + b + 4b = 154 – 10

6b = 144

b = 24

Then, a = 24 + 10 = 34 and c = 4 x 24 = 96.

Hence, orders served by Latoya, Milan and Hong are 34, 24, 96 respectively.

What is StartFraction 3 pi Over 4 EndFraction radians converted to degrees? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest degre

Helen [10]

Answer:

135°

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert <em>Radians </em>to <em>Degrees</em>, you multiply the <em>Radians </em>amount by $\frac{180}{\pi}$ .

Thus, we get $\frac{3\pi }{4}$ * $\frac{180}{\pi}$

We then get $\frac{540\pi }{4\pi }$ , which simplifies into 135 degrees.

John read the first 1 1 4 114114 pages of a novel, which was 3 33 pages less than 1 3 3 1 ? start fraction, 1, divided by, 3, en

damaskus [11]

We are given statement " John read the first 114 pages of a novel, which was 3 pages less than 1/3 of the novel".

Let us assume total number of pages of a novel = p pages.

3 less than 1/3 of total pages = 114.

3 less then 1/3 of P is = 114.

$\frac{1}{3}P- 3 = 114$

<h3>Therefore, required equation for number of pages of a novel is </h3><h3> $\frac{1}{3}P- 3 = 114$ .</h3>
