Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 80 biscuits inside the tin.

Also, they said that those biscuits are in the ratio

Short bread    :      Choc - chip

          2          :        3

Altogether there are 5 shares ( 2 + 3)

And now you can divide 80 by 5 to find how many biscuits contain per a share.

80 ÷ 5 = 16

In the question, they asked us to to find the number of short biscuits inside the tin.

Let us find that.

There are 2 shares for short bread biscuits.

So,

Number of short biscuits ⇒ 2 × 16

                                         ⇒ 32

Hope this helps you :-)

Answer:

M = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Ooo..I'm actually good at these!!

So its simple...All you do is take the equation and divide both sides by 4.5

When we divide, we get m alone.

4.5m = 189

/4.5       /4.5

m = 42

Hope this helps!! Can I have brainliest please?!?

Solve.<br><br> 3 = –(–y + 6)
o-na [289]

3=−(−y+6)

Simplify:

3=−(−y+6)

3=y+−6(Distribute)

3=y−6

Flip the equation.

y−6=3

Add 6 to both sides.

y−6+6=3+6

y=9

What type of endorsement is illustrated by the following example:
Bezzdna [24]
When receiving a check from someone, you'll see that there are lines on the back. Those lines are for the check to be endorsed so you can cash it or deposit your money. Most of the time you'll just sign the back to endorse it and put it in your account or get money in return. However, there are special cases that can show where the money should go. Here are different types of endorsements:

1. Blank endorsements have just your signature on the back. Anyone can cash or deposit a check with this endorsement.

2. Restrictive endorsements have "For Deposit Only" on the first line, then your signature below that. This type of check can only be deposited, not to be cashed for money.

3. Special endorsements are for giving your check to another person. This check can only be deposited or cashed by the person designated on the back. For this endorsement, you would write "Pay to the order of" and then the person's name you want to give the check to. You would then sign your name underneath that. 

As seen in your question, Isis Love is signing it as a special endorsement<em />. She is giving her check to Mike Lopez so his name follows "Pay to the order of". The numbers at the bottom would represent the bank account number.

Ella was paid an 11 percent commission on the pair of shoes that she sold. The department store had paid $25 wholesale for the s
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The answer is B. $3.85.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because, first if we get the percentage that the shoes were marked up by, we get that they were marked up to $35, because 40% of $25 is $10 and $25 + $10 = $35.

Then, we find the percentage of $35 that she earned. In order to do this, we see what 11% of $35 is. We get $3.85, because 10% of $35 is $3.50, and 1% of $35 is $0.35. $3.50 + $0.35 = $3.85.

This is why the answer is B. $3.85.
