Answer:

$165, 5 months total, 4 more months

Step-by-step explanation:

First find 30% of 550 by converting 30% into a decimal to get 0.30. Then multiply 550 by 0.3 to get 165 as her savings each month. To find how ling she has to save, divide 825/165 to get 5 month. She must save for 5 month total or 4 more months to get the bike

Polly buys 14 cupcakes for a party. The bakery puts them into boxes that hold 4 cupcakes each.

Temka [501]

Answer:

Part a) The number of boxes needed will be 4

part b) The fraction of the box that is empty is $\frac{1}{2}$

Part c) Are needed 2 cupcakes to fill the last box

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) How many boxes will be needed for Polly to bring all the cupcakes to the party?

To find out the number of boxes needed, divide the total number of cupcakes by 4 (maximum number of cupcakes that fit in each box).

so

$\frac{14}{4}=3.5\ box$

Round up

The number of boxes needed will be 4

Part b) If the bakery completely fills as many boxes as possible, what fraction of the last box is empty?

we know that

The maximum number of cupcakes per box is 4

The first three boxes have 4 cupcakes

The last box has

$14-3(4)=2\ cupcakes$

The fraction of the box that is empty is equal to the number of cupcakes missing to fill the box divided by the cupcake capacity of the box

$\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

Part c) How many more cupcakes are needed to fill this box

Subtract the number of cupcakes in the box from the cupcake capacity of the box

The last box has 2 cupcakes

The cupcake capacity of the box is 4

so

$4-2=2\ cupcakes$

therefore

Are needed 2 cupcakes to fill the last box

Find the circumference of a circle that has an area of 452.16 square meters. (Use 3.1416 as the value of π.)

boyakko [2]

452.16 = 3.1416 r^2
r^2 = 452.16 / 3.1416
r^2 = 143.93
r = 11.997

C = 2 (3.1416) (12) =75.38 m

What is the answer to x and y

Olin [163]

Answer:

y= 128, x=52

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sum of all the angles in a quadrilateral is 360.

y is 128 because both those angles are equal

the other 2 angles are also equal to each other.

360 - 128-128= 104

104/2 is 52
