9514 1404 393

Answer:

  103

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1200 eggs, the caterer needs ...

  (1200 eggs)/(12 eggs/carton) = 100 cartons

of unbroken eggs.

The rate of broken eggs is 1 in 3×12 = 1 in 36, so the caterer must buy 36 eggs for each 35 unbroken eggs delivered.

Then the number of cartons that must be purchased is ...

  (100 cartons)(36/35) = 102 6/7 cartons

The caterer should buy 103 cartons of eggs.

Jason worked 20 hours at $5 per hour and 30 hours at $6 per hour. What was his average hourly wage Please show all your work
11111nata11111 [884]

Jason worked 20 hours at $5 per hour and 30 hours at $6 per hour.

20 hours at $5 per hour = 20 times 5

20 \times 5 = \$100

30 hours at $6 per hour = 30 times 6

30 \times 6 = 180

180 + 100 = 280

He earned $280 in 50 hours. Divide:

280 \div 50 = 5.6 \rightarrow 5.60

Your answer is the last choice, $5.60

loris [4]

x    -  Alma's given number

15•x  -  the number multiplied by 15 (the correct answer)

5•x   - the number multiplied by Alma (Alma's answer)

her answer is 150 less than the correct answer:

5•x = 15•x - 150

15x - 150 = 5x

15x - 5x = 150

a marrow plants 0.5 m long. every week it grows by 20%. a find the value of the common ratio. b calculate how long the plant is
OLga [1]

Answer:

The common ratio is 1.2.

After 12 weeks the plant will be 4.46 meters long.

After one year the plant will be 6,552.32 meters long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a marrow plants 0.5 m long and every week it grows by 20%, to find the value of the common ratio, calculate how long the plant is after 12 weeks and comment on the predicted length of the marrow after one year must be performed the following calculations:

0.50 x 1.2 ^ X = Y

Therefore, the common ratio is 1.2.

0.50 x 1.2 ^ 12 = Y

0.50 x 8.916 = Y

4.4580 = Y

Therefore, after 12 weeks the plant will be 4.46 meters long.

0.50 x 1.2 ^ 52 = Y

0.50 x 13,104.63 = Y

6,552.32 = Y

Therefore, after one year the plant will be 6,552.32 meters long.
