Answer:

Her original amount of money can be represented by the variable x

Because we are spending one-fourth of her money, and “of” translate to multiply, we can write 1/4(x), or equivalently we can say 0.25x of her money, if you prefer decimal.

When you say 1/2 of it, this refers to the original amount of money, x, unless the problem wants you to figure how much 1/2 of the remaining amount is. So if the problem is directly asking for 1/2 of it, that would’ve half of x, or 0.5x in decimal.

Remaining was 50 pence, so the original amount minus 1/4 of the amount minus 1/2 the amount equals 50 pence or .50 giving us the equation: x-0.25x-0.5x=.50

Combine like terms on the left, and we have 0.25x=0.50.

Divide by 0.25 on both sides.

We have x equals 2.

So she started with $2. To check this, we ask ourselves does having $2, and spending 1/4 of it and spending 1/2 of it, then result to 50 pence?

Yes it does, because 2–1–0.5 does in fact equal 0.50 (50pence)

Su cantidad original de dinero puede ser representada por la variable x Debido a que estamos gastando una cuarta parte de su dinero, y "de" se traduce para multiplicar, podemos escribir 1/4 (x), o equivalentemente podemos decir 0.25x de su dinero , si lo prefiere decimal. Cuando dices la mitad, esto se refiere a la cantidad original de dinero, x, a menos que el problema quiera que calcules la mitad de la cantidad restante. Entonces, si el problema es pedir directamente la mitad, tendría la mitad de x, o 0.5x en decimal. El restante era 50 centavos, por lo que la cantidad original menos 1/4 de la cantidad menos la mitad de la cantidad es igual a 50 peniques o .50, lo que nos da la ecuación: x-0.25x-0.5x = .50 Combina términos semejantes a la izquierda, y tenemos 0.25x = 0.50 Divide por 0.25 en ambos lados, tenemos x igual a 2. ella empezó con 2 dólares. Para comprobar esto, nos preguntamos si tener 2 dólares y gastar 1/4 de ellos y gastar la mitad de ellos, ¿da como resultado 50 centavos? sí eso

A construction worker needs to determine the volume of a sandpille in a construction yard as shown
postnew [5]
Answer:
6580cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 6580cm because....
Step one First let's figure out what the smaller shape's volume is. To do so we need to multiply ( LxWxH ) so 6x5x? it does not list what the height is so we know it has the same height as the larger shape and it's height is 14cm so we will use 14cm. 6x5x14=420cm
Step two Now lets find the Volume of the larger shape. So lets do LxWxH so Lx?x14 it does not give us the length so we need to add up all of the numbers along the line. We got 7cm then 5 from the bottom of the smaller shape and 10cm. all ads up to 22cm so 20x22x14=6160
Finally we add up the following shapes Volume which are 6160+420=6580cm

Pete has an old playstation that he bought for $400.
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

1 year= $280

Step-by-step explanation:

30% of 400= 0.3 * 400= 120

400-120= 280

after one year the playstation cost 280

30% of 280= 0.3 * 280= 84

280-84= 196

after 2 years it cost $196

multiply the number by 0.3 to get 30% of the total
