Answer:

1.2 trains for $25.

Step-by-step explanation:

For 50 dollars, you could get 2.4 trains with the $25 dollar option.

For 90 dollars (an extra 40 dollars!) you only get 0.2 more trains.

If you add another $25 to the current $50 on the other option, you get 3.6 trains.

So, 1.2 trains for $25 must be the better option as you can get an extra 1 train for 15 dollars less!

Hope this helps!

Also, who buys 0.2 or 0.6 of a train? -_-

2 trains for 25 because if you find the unit rate of both the first one has a lower rate

A hamburger bun merchant can ship 8 large boxes or 10 small boxes of hamburger buns into a carton for shipping. In one shipment,
Varvara68 [4.7K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

56 large boxes and 40 small boxes.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

To solve this problem, we need to use the concept of multiples. By definition, a multiple of a number is that number multiplied by an integer. For instance, 3, 6, 9, 12 are multiples of 3. So let's do a chart and list the multiples of large and small boxes:

\begin{array}{cccccccccc}Number\,of\,boxes & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 & 9\\Large & 8 & 16 & 24 & 32 & 40 & 48 & 56 & 64 & 72\\Small & 10 & 20 & 30 & 40 & 50 & 60 & 70 & 80 & 90\end{array}

From this, our goal is to select the number of small and large boxes such that the sum is 96 boxes of hamburger burns and the number of large boxes is greater than the number of small boxes. From the table, the correct solution is:

56 large boxes and 40 small boxes, and this meets our requirement, because 56 + 40 = 96 and 56 > 40

Answer:

<em>She invested 1600 at 8%     (to get the shown $160 interest)</em>

<em>and $7400 at 10%    (to get the shown  640 interest)</em>

<em>If x = 4000 then $80 interest is x2 again = $160</em>

<em>and so forth $320 interest x 2 again = $640</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The format would always be for x and then where </em>

<em>investment - x = interest  we can work out totals this way and find x.</em>

<em>9000-x = 800  is first equation and substituted into 2nd equation;</em>

<em>0.10x+0.08(9000−x)=800</em>

<em>Use the distributive property to multiply 0.08 by 9000−x.</em>

<em>0.10x+720−0.08x=800</em>

<em>Combine 0.10x and  -0.08x to get 0.02x.</em>

<em>0.02x + 720 = 800</em>

<em>Subtract 720 from both sides.</em>

<em>0.02x=800−720</em>

<em>Subtract 720 from 800 to get 80.</em>

<em>0.02x=80</em>

<em>Divide both sides by 0.02.</em>

<em>x=  80 / 0.02</em>

<em>Make decimals numbers = 1 or above.</em>

<em>80  / 0.02    x 100</em>

<em>x=  8000 / 2</em>

<em>x = 4000</em>
