Sheila has 14 1/2 pounds of potato salad. She wants to divide the potato salad into containers, each of which holds 1 1/4 pounds. How many containers does she need? Complete the explanation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

11 3/5 containers

Equivalent to 11.6 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pounds of potato salad = 14 1/2 pounds

Pounds in each container = 1 1/4 pounds

How many containers does she need?

Number of containers needed = Total pounds of potato salad / Pounds in each container

= 14 1/2 ÷ 1 1/4

= 29/2 ÷ 5/4

= 29/2 × 4/5

= (29×4) / (2×5)

= 116/10

= 11 6/10

= 11 3/5 containers

Equivalent to 11.6 containers

Store A sells 3 t-shirts for $25. Store B sells the same t-shirts: 5 for $40. Which store has the better deal?
Show your work supporting your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Store B

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out which store has the better deal, we need to figure out the price per unit. We can do this by dividing the price by the number of the shirts. Store A sells their t-shirts for 8.33 or 8 1/3 dollars per shirt, while Store B sells their shirts for 8 dollars a shirt. 8 < 8 1/3, therefore Store B has the better deal.

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do 3/25=5/x. You would get $41.6. Another way to show it is to divide 25/3 and 40/5, which would give us $8.3 and $8.

Jillian is selling boxes of cookies to raise money for her basketball team. The 10 oz. box costs $3.50, while the 16 oz. box costs $5.00. At the end of one week, she collected $97.50, selling a total of 24 boxes. The system of equations that models her sales is below.

x+ y= 24

3.50x + 5.00y = 97.50

Solve the system of equations. How many 10 oz. boxes were sold?

15

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  15

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that x represents the number of 10-oz boxes sold. Then y=24-x is the number of 16-oz boxes sold. Substituting for y in the second equation gives ...

  3.50x +5.00(24 -x) = 97.50

  -1.50x +120 = 97.50

  22.50 = 1.50x . . . . . . . add 1.50x -97.50

  15 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 1.50

15 10-oz boxes were sold.

The vertices of are F(2,1), G(4,1), and H(4,-1). The vertices of the image of the triangle after a dilation centered at (0,0) are F'(4,2), G'(8,2), and H'(8,-2). What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Answers

Answer:

The scale factor of the dilation is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given vertices the ΔFGH are;

F(2, 1), G(4, 1), and H(4, -1)

The lengths of the sides of the triangle ΔFGH are;

The length of segment FG = √((4 - 2)² + (1 - 1)²) = 2

The length of segment FH = √((4 - 2)² + ((-1) - 1)²) = 2·√2

The length of segment GH = √((4 - 4)² + ((-1) - 1)²) = 2

After a dilation with the center of dilation = (0, 0), to give the ΔF'G'H', we have;

The given vertices the ΔF'G'H' are F'(4, 2), G'(8, 2), H'(8, -2)

The length of segment F'G' = √((8 - 4)² + (2 - 2)²) = 4

The length of segment F'H' = √((8 - 4)² + ((-2) - 2)²) = 4·√2

The length of segment G'H' = √((8 - 8)² + ((-2) - 2)²) = 4

The length of the sides of ΔFGH = 1/2 × The length of the sides of ΔF'G'H' or the length of the sides of ΔF'G'H' = 2 × The length of the sides of ΔFGH

Therefore, the scale factor of the dilation is 2.

Joaquin is four more than half Marjorie’s age. Marjorie is also 32 less than three times Joaquin’s age.

How old is Marjorie?

Answers

Answer:

She is 40 years of age

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Joaquin age be j

Let Marjorie age be m

From the first part of the question;

j = 4 + m/2

Secondly;

m =3j - 32

Multiply equation i through by 2

2j = 8 + m

m = 2j-8

Equate both m

2j-8 = 3j-32

3j-2j = 32 -8

j = 24

m = 2j-8

m = 2(24)-8

m = 48-8

m = 40

When you’re multiplying or dividing same sign numbers, what will your product or quotient be?

Answers

When you multiply two integers with the same signs, the result is always positive. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer positive. When you multiply two integers with different signs, the result is always negative.

The answer will be the opposite of the sign so for example -5*-5= 25

Answer:

1086

Step-by-step explanation:

BODMASS (Multiplication first, addition after)...

15×72= 1080

1080+6= 1086

hope it helps

Because of PEMDAS, Simplify 15x72 first. That will bring you to 1080. After that we add 6 to the 1080 because you always do Multiplication first. Your answer would be 1086 if you followed PEMDAS correctly.

PEMDAS:

1. Parentheses

2. Exponents

3. Multiplication

4. Division

5. Addition

6. Subtraction

That's the order of operations if you ever want to know what to do first.

The height of a pebble dropped from a cliff 20,00 feet heigh is described by formula h(t)=20,000 + 5t^2. How long will the pebble take to reach a height of 32,500 feet?

Answers

Answer:

It will take 50 seconds for the pebble to reach the height

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the time, simple substitute h(t) for 32,500

So we have

32,500 = 20,000 + 5t^2

5t^2 = 32,500-20,000

5t^2 = 12500

t^2 = 12500/5

t^2 = 2500

t = square root of 2500

t = 50 seconds
