Answer:

D. 48

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't know the numbers of coupons sent to existing members and to potential members, but we know a relationship between the number.

They sent 5 times as many coupons to potential members as they did to existing members.

Let x = number of coupons sent to existing members.

Then 5x = number of coupons sent to potential members.

The total number of coupons sent was x + 5x = 6x

The total number of coupons sent was 288.

Therefore, 6x must equal 288 giving us an equation with a single variable.

6x = 288

x = 48

Answer: 48

Chris is behind in 9 classes of school he has a total time of 25 days to make up 75 hours and 4 minutes worth of late work how m
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the 4 mins into hours by dividing by 60;

4/60 =0.067

Add 0.067 to 75 hrs to get the total = 75+0.067 = 75.067

Therefore the total time Chris needs to make up for is 75.067 hrs

Total number of days Chris has = 25

Next,

IF in 25 days = he can cover 75.067hrs

then in 1 day he will cover = (1 * 75.067)/ 25

        = 3.002

Therefore, Chris needs to do 3hrs each day to be able to complete the deadline

Three-eighths of the sum of sixteen times a number and twenty-four. How do you set this up?
patriot [66]
If you break it up:

Three-eighths = 3/8

Sixteen times a number, we'll call the unknown number X, so 16X.

Twenty Four = 24

The sum of 16X and 24 = 16X + 24

We want 3/8 of that sum so we put the sum in parenthesis and we get:

Y = 3/8(16X + 24) where Y is the answer youd get if you knew what X was.

consuela's living room is a rectangle with an area of 360 square feet. the width of the living room is 5/8 its length. what is t
Aleks [24]
Area of Consuela's rectangular living room = 360 square feet
Let us assume the the length of the living room = x
Then
width of the living room = (5/8) * x
                                      = (5x/8)
Then
Area of the rectangle = Length * Width
360 = x * (5x/8)
360 = 5x^2/8
2880 = 5x^2
x^2 = 2880/5
x^2 = 576
x^2 = (24)^2 inches
x = 24
Then
The length of the rectangle is = 24 inches
And 
The Width of the rectangle is = 24 * (5/8) inches
                                               = 3 * 5 inches
                                               = 15 inches

Korolek [52]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

10(10m+6)<=12        

100m+60<=12       Distributive Property

100m     <=12-60

100m    <=-48

     m    <=-48/100

     m    <=-.48

This says values for m that are less than or equal to -.48

-.48 is between -1 and 0 so the answer is B
