A girl scout troop sold cookies. If the girls sold 5 more boxes the second week than they did the first, and if they double the

valina [46]

Answer:

Boxes sold first week = 104

Boxes sold second week =x+5= 104+5=109

Boxes sold third week = 109 times 2= 218

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of boxes sold in first week

the girls sold 5 more boxes the second week

So number of boxes sold in second week is x+5

they double the sales of the second week for the third week

So number of boxes sold in third week is 2 (x+5)

Total boxes sold is 431

$x+x+5+2(x+5)=431$

$x+x+5+2x+10=431$

$4x+15=431$

subtract 15 from both sides

$4x=416$

divide by 4 on both sides

$x=104$

Boxes sold first week = 104

Boxes sold second week =x+5= 104+5=109

Boxes sold third week = 104 times 2= 218

8.45 At some point in the season, the Unicorns had won 60% of their basketball games. After that point, they won 8 more games an

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The total number of games won by Unicorn is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with a word problem
We are asked to find the number of unicorns played during the season
We can do this in two steps

Step 1: Finding the win percentage

Step 2: Finding the number of unicorns played during the season

Step 1 of 2

Let the number of games played by unicorn be x.The unicorn won 60% of the first x-10 games That is $\frac{60}{100} \times(x-10)$

Combining the 8 games we get,

$\begin{gathered}\frac{60}{100}(x-10)+8=\frac{60}{100} \times x-\frac{60}{100} \times 10+8 \\0.6 x-6+8=0.6 x+2\end{gathered}$

Step 2 of 2

The unicorn totally won 65% of the games played.

That is $\frac{65}{100} \times x=0.65 x$

Equating both the equation gives

$\begin{gathered}0.6 x+2=0.65 x \\2=0.65 x-0.6 x \\2=0.05 x \\\frac{2}{0.05}=x \\40=x\end{gathered}$

According to the scores on the last math test, 80%, or 20, of the students in the class received an A. Find the number of studen

Sladkaya [172]

80% is the same as 4/5, so 4/5 of the class= 20. That means that if there was a picture, 4 parts would be shaded, and 1 would not. 1/4 of 20 is 5, so 1 part= 5 people. 5 x 5 = 25. 25 is the answer. :)
