Answer:

Solomon ate 4 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

fraction of red sweets =3/5 of s,

where s is total number of sweets

51=3/5*s

51*5=3s

255=3s

s=255/3

s=85

85-51=34

there were 34 orange sweets

now there is

17/27=51/s

fraction of red sweets where s is total number of sweets

17s=51*27

17s=1377

s=1377/17

s=81

85-81=4

KIM [24]

distance:1, 1, 1.3, 1.5, 2, 2.3, 2.5, 3 ,3.2, 4

time. :1, 2, 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ,. 9 ,10

distance:1.5, 2, 3.2, 4.2, 5, 6, 7, 8

time. : 1 , 2, 3 , 4. , 5, 6, 7, 8

<h3>at 5 seconds which travelled the greatest distance : snail 2</h3>

<h3>which travelled a greater distance:snail 2</h3>

<h3>what is the speed of snail 1 at 8 second :</h3>

distance = 3. Time = 8

speed = distance

time

speed = 8

emily drives home from work in 30 minutes driving 60 miles per hour. If Emily need to get home 10 minutes earlier, how fast does

AlladinOne [14]

The correct answer is 90 miles per hour

Explanation:

The first step to know how fast Emily needs to drive to get 10 minutes earlier is to determine the distance from her work to her home. This can be calculated by using the information provided (speed and time). The process is shown below:

speed = distance ÷ time

distance = speed x time

distance = 60 miles per hour x 0.5 (30 minutes represent 0.5 hours)

distance= 30 miles

Now, using the same formula let's calculate the speed for 20 minutes (30 minutes - 10 minutes earlier = 20 minutes)

speed = distance ÷ time

speed = 30 miles ÷ 0.333 (20 minutes represents 0.333 hours as 20 minutes is 1/3 of an hour)

speed= 90 miles per hour

Mekhanik [1.2K]

The first step is to find out the value of one diaper for each equation

39.98/216 = 0.18
Therefore one diaper is for 0.18 cents

24.99/88 = 0.28
Therefore one diaper is for 0.28 cents

At the end the first deal is better
