konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The number of each kind of apartment in the building is 130 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total number of floor in a building = 15

The number of apartment on each floor = 26

So, The total number of apartment = 26 × 15 = 390

The number of kinds of apartment in the building is 3 , i.e 1-bedroom , 2-bedroom , 3-bedroom

Let The number of each kind of apartment in building = x

So, According to question

The number of each kind of building = $\dfrac{\textrm Total number of apartment }{number of kinds of apartment}$

Answer:

2. $20 the amount you saved mowing your aunt's lawn.

2. 20 because that is how much you already have.

3. Since you already have $20, you need to subtract 125 by 20 to get 105. Then you divide 105 by 5 to get 21 weeks.

Katie gives Maggie half of her pencils. Maggie keeps 5 pencils and gives the rest to Jamil. A. Write an expression for the numbe

Alexandra [31]

Here's what I mean when I write x/2 JUST IN CASE.

а.

Let the total number of pencils be x, then this implies that Maggie received x/2 pencils from Katie. Maggie keeps 5 and give the rest to Jamil, this means

that Jamil receives

x/2-5 pencils.

b. Expression of pencils given to Jamil is: x/2-5

Substitute x=16 in this expression: x/2-5

Simplify and evaluate: = 8-5= 3

Maggie gives 3 pencils to Jamil.

c. Expression of pencils given to Jamil is: x/2-5 to

Equate this expression with 1 to form an equation and solve for x all, the total

number of pencils if Jamil received 1 pencil:

x/2 - 5 = 1

Solve for x:

x = 2(1+ 5)

Evaluate:

x = 2(6) = 12

Katie had 12 pencils if Jamil received 1 pencil.

RESULT

a. Expression of number of pencils given to Jamil is x/2-5, where x is total number of pencils.

b. Maggie gives 3 pencils to Jamil.

c. Katie had 12 pencils if Jamil received 1 pencil.
