She bought N pencils last month for 288, as the amount is in pennies. This month she bought N+12 for 720.
288/N = 720 / (N+12)
288(N+12) = 720N
288N + 3456 = 720N
3456 = 720N - 288N
3456=432N
N=8
She bought 8 pencils last month for 288, which is 36 cents each. And she bought 20 pencils this month for 720 which is 36 cents each. Hope this helped :)
<span>(2n^2 + 5n + 3)(4n – 5)
= 8n^3 -10n^2 + 20n^2 - 25n + 12n - 15
= 8n^3 + 10n^2 - 13n - 15
answer is </span><span>A. 8n^3 + 10n^2 – 13n – 15
hope that helps</span>
Lets write down what we know...
Laura walks 3/5 mile to school everyday
Laura=3/5mile
Isaiah's walk is 3 times as long as Lauras, so
Isaiah=Laura*3
We know how far Lauras walk is so we can solve for Isaiah's walk
Isaiah=3/5*3 (or Isaiah=3/5+3/5+3/5 if thats easier for you to solve for)
Isaiah=9/5 miles
Now we know the answer! Great, Isaiah walks 9/5 miles to school each day. But 9/5 is an improper fraction, so lets convert it to a mixed number.
9/5=
To solve for this, we have to find out how many times 5 can go into 9. 5 goes into 9 one time with a remainder of 4, so we can write the mixed number as.
9/5= 1 4/5
Isaiah walks 9/5miles or 1 4/5 miles. Both are correct.
Given:
students going to the game = 56
students in each van = 7
number of vans used = unknown; x
The number sentence that can be used to find out how many vans are needed to take the students to the game is:
7 * x = 56
x = 56/7
x = 8 vans needed.
Answer:
Let x = Kilometers by bus
then x + (x + 350) = 1100
2x = 750
x = 375 by bus
x - 350 + x = 1100
2x = 1450
x = 725 by train
i hope this helps a little bit
