Answer:

  • 15 at $100
  • 48 at $25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of higher-value ($100) prizes. Then (63-x) is the number of $25 prizes. The total value of the prizes is ...

  100x +25(63 -x) = 2700

  75x = 1125 . . . . . . . . . subtract 1575 and simplify

  x = 15 . . . . . . . . . divide by 75; number of $100 prizes

  63-x = 63 -15 = 48 . . . . number of $25 prizes

There are 15 $100 prizes and 48 $25 prizes.

Answer:

$100 prize = 15, $25 prize = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

$100 prize = x

$25 prize = y

=> x + y = 63 (1)

=> 100x + 25y = 2700 (2)

=> 100x/25 + 25y/25 = 2700/25

=> 4x + y = 108 (3)

On subtracting 2 and 3

=> 4x + y - (x + y) = 108 - 63

=> 4x + y - x - y = 45

=> 3x = 45

=> x = 15

=> 15 + y = 63

=> y = 63 - 15

=> y = 48

On a 50-question test, a student answered 5 questions incorrectly. What percent did the student answer correctly? A. 45% B. 90%
nadya68 [22]
Hey there,

Pretend that 50 = 100

And that 5 = 10.

I did a 100 test unit test, and I got 10% wrong.

If you think about this, the answer would be 90%

So, it's the same in this case,

50 in half of 100

5 is half of 10.

So . . .

This would mean that your correct answer would be 90% because 5 in this case is to be considered to be 10.

Your correct answer is  . . . . 

\boxed{\boxed{90 \ would \ be \ your \ correct \ answer }}

Hope this helps

The florist can order roses bunches of one dozen and lilies in bunches of 8.
vekshin1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1. (rose bunches, lily bunches) ∈ {(2, 3), (4, 6), (6, 9), (8, 12)}. The least is (2, 3).

  2. 6(2+3); 14(3+1); 9(4+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

I like Euclid's algorithm for finding the greatest common factor (GCF): divide the larger number by the smaller, and note the remainder. If the remainder is zero, the smaller is the GCF; if not, use the remainder in place of the larger number and repeat.

__

1. The GCF of 8 and 12 is 4, so the least common multiple is ...

  LCM(a, b) = ab/GCF(a, b)

  LCM(8, 12) = 8·12/4 = 24

24 roses is 2 bunches; 24 lilies is 3 bunches. Up to 8 bunches of roses can be ordered to keep the number less than 100.

The florist could have ordered these numbers of bunches (roses, lilies):

  (2, 3), (4, 6), (6, 9), (8, 12)

The least order is 2 bunches of roses and 3 bunches of lilies.

__

2.

A. GCF = 6, so the factored form is 6(2+3)

B. GCF = 14, so the factored form is 14(3+1)

C. GCF = 9, so the factored form is 9(4+3)
