. A retailer sold 10 packs of pens in 3 days. There were 48 pens in each pack. He sold twice as many pens on Sunday than on Monday. He sold 55 pens fewer on Tuesday than on Sunday. How many pens did the retailer sell on Monday?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of pens sold on Monday is 107 pens

Step-by-step explanation:

total pack of pen sold by the retailer in 3 days =  10 packs

total number of pens in the 10 packs = 48 x 10 = 480 pens

let the number of pens sold on Monday = x

let the number of pens sold on Sunday = y

let the number of pens sold on Tuesday = z

He sold twice as many pens on Sunday than on Monday

y = 2x ------equation (1)

He sold 55 pens fewer on Tuesday than on Sunday

y = z + 55 ------equation (2)

total number of pens sold in the three days

y + z + x = 480  ------equation (3)

from equation (1) make x the subject of the formula

x = y/2

from equation (2) make z the subject of the formula

z = y - 55

substitute the value of x, and z into equation (3)

y + y/2 + y - 55 = 480

2y + y/2 = 480 + 55

5y/2 = 535

5y = 535 x 2

5y = 1070

y = 1070 / 5

y = 214

The number of pens sold on Monday is:

x = y / 2

x = 214 / 2

x = 107 pens

Thus, the number of pens sold on Monday is 107 pens

Matías compró un cuarto kilogramo de jamón y lo utilizó para hacer tres tortas así No sobró y a cada torta le puso la misma cantidad de jamón cuánto le tocó a cada torta

Answers

Answer:

The amount of ham in each cake = 1/12 kg

Question:

Matías bought a quarter kilogram of ham and used it to make three cakes like that. There was no leftover and he put the same amount of ham in each cake, how much he touched in each cake.

Step-by-step explanation:

Matías bought = 1/4 kilogram of ham

1/4 kilogram of ham = 3 cakes

There was no remainder

the same amount of ham is in each cake.

To find the amount of ham in each cake, we need to know the fraction of ham in each cake.

Since 3cakes = 1/4kg

1cake = (1/4kg×1cake)/3cakes

= 1/4kg ÷ 3 = 1/4 × 1/3

The fraction of ham in each cake = 1/12

The amount of ham in each cake = 1/12 kg

A line passes through (-1,7) and (2,10) which answer is the equation of the line

Answers

Answer: -x + y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you are going to want to find the slope of the equation. The equation for that it (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (10 - 7)/(2 - -1) and that equals 1. So your slope will be 1.

Now you have half of your equation complete, currently it looks like, y = x + b. So we have to find the y intercept. You can do that by plugging in a pair of coordinates into the current equation and solve for b.

Lets plug in (2,10)

10 = 2 + b

10 - 2 = b

b = 8

So now you have your equation in slope intercept form, y = x + 8. Just move the x over to the left side and there is your answer.

-x + y = 8

Here, 12 was divided by 4 to obtain 3 in the other fraction. So, the missing number has to be 16 divided by 4, which gives 4

Answer:

[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we are presented with  [tex]\frac{12}{16}[/tex]  and we want to simplify to have a numerator of 3. When simplifying fractions it's important to do the operation on both the numerator and the denominator so,

[tex]\frac{12}{16}[/tex]   →  Half the numerator and the denominator →  [tex]\frac{6}{8}[/tex]  →  Half the numerator and the denominator again →  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Mary wants to make a box she starts with a piece of cardboard whose length is 15cm and width is 10cm then she cuts them in congrats square with side 3cm at he four comes what is the area of the cardboard after she cuts the 4 comes

Answers

Answer:

V = 108 cm^3

the volume of the box is 108 cm^3

Corrected question;

Mary wants to make a box. She starts with a piece of cardboard whose length is 15 centimeters and width is 10 centimeters. Then she cuts 4 congruent squares with sides of 3 centimeters at the four corners and folded at the broken lines to make the box. What is the volume of the box?

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a box V is;

V = length × breadth × height

V = l×b×h ......1

Length l of the box that would be formed after cutting squares with sides 3 cm from the edges of a cardboard of length 15 cm is;

l = 15 - 2(3) = 9 cm

Breadth b of the box that would be formed after cutting squares with sides 3 cm from the edges of a cardboard of breadth 10 cm is;

b = 10 - 2(3) = 4 cm

Height of the box is the length of the squares cut;

h = 3 cm

Substituting the values into equation 1;

V = 9 × 4 × 3 cm^3

V = 108 cm^3

the volume of the box is 108 cm^3

Wayne charges the following for repairing washing machines:£28 call out charge +£16 for each half-hour he spends on the repair what will the total cost be for a repair which takes one and a half hours?

Answers

Answer:

The cost for a repair that takes one and a half hour is £52

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create a function that relates the value Wayne charges in function of the time it takes for him to fix the washing machine in hours. Since there's a fixed cost of 28 and another charge that is variable of 16 per half hour, then the function below represents the cost of the repair:

[tex]cost(t) = 28 + 32*t[/tex]

In this case the variable value "16" was multiplied by two, because it's easier when the time is given in hours and every hour contains two half-hours. If the repair took 1.5 h, then:

[tex]cost(1.5) = 28 + 16*1.5\\cost(1.5) = 52\\[/tex]

The cost for a repair that takes one and a half hour is £52

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (4,7) and (5,3)?

Answers

in mx+b form i think it would be y= -4+23

I will be showing you the graphing method.

To find the slope of the line using the graphing method,

we start by plotting our two points.

We will call (4,7) point A and (5,3) point B.

Now daw a line that contains these points.

Now remember that the slope or m is equal to the rise/run.

So to get from point A to point B, we rise -4 units

and run 1 unit so our slope is -4/1 or -4.

someone help me find BC

Answers

Answer:

BC can be found after A and before D lol jkjk the answers 2.3

Step-by-step explanation:

sin(50°) = d / 3

sin(50°) = 0.766

0.766 = d / 3

Start with:

0.766 = d / 3

Swap sides:

d / 3 = 0.766

Multiply both sides by 3:

d = 0.766 x 3  

Calculate:

d = 2.298

So BC = 2.298

Use cross products to identify the equation needed to solve this proportion: 5/x = 2/9

Answers

Answer:

x=22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the proportion:

5/x=2/9

Cross multiply. Multiply the numerator (top number) of the first fraction by the denominator (bottom number) of the second. Then multiply the denominator of the first by the numerator of the second.

5*9=2*x

45=2x

2 and x are being multiplied. The opposite of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 2. This will cancel out the 2 being multiplied by x, and leave x by itself.

45/2=2x/2

45/2=x

22.5=x

If we substitute 22.5 in for x, the final proportion will be:

5/22.5=2/9

Answer: 22.5 = x

Step-by-step explanation: First, write the problem, 5/x = 2/9. Next, cross multiply. Write the equation, 5 x 9 = 2x. After, write the equation in a multiplying fraction sentence. 45/2 = 2x/2. Lastly, solve for x by dividing 45 by 2. You should end up with a result of 22.5 = x.
