A bucket contains stones and seashells. There are 40 seashells in the bucket and the ratio of stones to seashells is 7: 4. Find the number of stones in the bucket.

Answers

Answer 1
7 stones for every 4 seashells.
you have 40 seashells so that is multiplying the ratio by 10. So you will have 70 stones for every 40 seashells.
70 is your answer
Answer 2

Answer:

There are 70 stones in the bucket.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 40 seashells in the bucket and the ratio of stones to seashells is 7:4, then there are 70 stones, because  4 x 10 = 40, and 7 x 10 = 70

After 32 years from now a boy will be 5 times as old as he was 8 years back.How old is the boy now?

Answers

Answer:

18 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Transforming the question in form of equation:

Let x be the current age.

x + 32 = 5(x-8)

x + 32 = 5x - 40

5x - x = 40 + 32

4x = 72

x = 18

Answer: look at this! He’s 18

Step-by-step explanation:

equation = x+32=5(x-8)

X+32=5x-40

5x-x=32+40

4x=72

X=72/4

=18

Lin’s father is paying for a $20 meal.
He has a 15%-off coupon for the meal.
After the discount, a 7% sales tax is applied.
What is the total amount Lin’s father pay for the meal?

Explain or show your reasoning.

Answers

$15.81

15% of $20 is $3 so subtract that from $20 and u get $17.
Then 7% of $17 is $1.19 so subtract that from $17 and you get $15.81, which is the amount Lin’s father would pay for the meal in the end.

The length of Rectangle A is 20 inches and the width is 4 inches. The length of Rectangle B is
40 inches. Find the width of Rectangle B if the rectangles are similar.

Answers

Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the width of rectangle B.

Since, both rectangles are similar.

Therefore, corresponding lengths and widths of rectangles A and B will be in proportion.

[tex] \therefore \frac{20}{40} = \frac{4}{w} \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{w} \\ \\ w = 2 \times 4 \\ \\ w = 8 \: inches[/tex]

Answer:

8"

Step-by-step explanation:

Lᵃ/Wᵃ = Lᵇ/Wᵇ

20"/4" = 40"/Wᵇ

Wᵇ = (4"×40")/20"

Wᵇ = 160" ÷ 20"

Wᵇ = 8"

Width of rectangle B = 8 inches

John drove his car due east for 8 miles. He then turned south and drove 15 miles. How far was he from where he started?

Answers

Answer:

John was 17 miles away from where he started.

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest approach to this problem is to draw it out (check the attached image). Going East and turning South is the same as drawing a line towards the right, and then down on the paper.

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we know that the sum of the square of the legs (2 smallest sides of a right triangle) is equal to the square of the hypotenuse of that triangle. In other words, [tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex].

So to solve this, work backwards:

[tex]8^{2}+15^{2} =c^{2}\\64 + 225 = c^{2}\\289 = c^{2}\\c = \sqrt{289}\\ c = 17[/tex]

The distance between the initial and final point will be 17 miles.

What is a Pythagoras theorem?

The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of two squares equals the squared of the longest side.

This can be expressed as

H² = P² + B²

John drove his car due east for 8 miles.

He then turned south and drove 15 miles.

Then the distance between the initial and final point will be

H² = 8² + 15²

H² = 64 + 225

H² = 289

H = 17 miles

Answers

Answer:

[tex]3\frac{11}{12}[/tex] cups

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]2\frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{2}[/tex] of pears

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of grapes

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of apples

[tex]\frac{2}{3} = \frac{8}{12}[/tex] of grapes

[tex]\frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{12}[/tex] of apples

add all of the fractions:

[tex]\frac{30}{12} + \frac{8}{12} + \frac{3}{12} + \frac{6}{12} = \frac{47}{12}[/tex]

convert to mixed fraction:
