Robert and Tony love to read. Robert reads 30 pages the first day and 20 pages each day after that. Tony reads 40 pages the first day and 15 pages each day after that. Will the boys ever read the same amount of pages? If so, how many days will it take them to read the same number of pages? A. Yes. They will read the same amount of pages in 3 days. B. Yes. They will read the same amount of pages in 5 days. C. Yes. They will read the same amount of pages in 6 days. D. No. They will never read the same amount of pages.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes they will read the same amount of pages in 3 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Because when you do the math they add up to the same amount of pages.

Answer 2

The correct statement is;

''Yes. They will read the same amount of pages in 2 days.''

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that;

Robert reads 30 pages the first day and 20 pages each day after that.

And, Tony reads 40 pages the first day and 15 pages each day after that.

Now,

Let the number of days for same pages read = x

So, We can formulate;

For Robert;

Number of pages = 30 + 20x

For Tony;

Number of pages = 40 + 15x

For equal days, we get;

⇒ 30 + 20x = 40 + 15x

Solve for x as;

⇒ 20x - 15x = 40 - 30

⇒ 5x = 10

⇒ x = 2

Thus, The correct statement is;

''Yes. They will read the same amount of pages in 2 days.''

Make x the subject of the formula: y=x^{2} + 5

Answers

First, multiply both sides by (x - 5), so you end up with:

(x-5)y = x + 2

Which can be expanded to give you:

xy - 5y = x + 2

Now add 5y to both sides to obtain:

xy = x + 2 + 5y

Now subtract x from both sides:

xy - x = 2 + 5y

Factorise x out:

x(y - 1) = 2 + 5y

Divide both sides by (y - 1):

x = 2 + 5y/y - 1

There you go, x is now the subject.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the conversion table, we can tell that 1 km = 0.62 miles. Now, let's see which is bigger.

=> 104 km ☐ 0.62 miles=> 0.62 x 104 ☐ 0.62 x 70 => 104 ☐ 70 => 104 > 70

Conclusion:

We can clearly see that 104 km is further than 70 miles.

can you please help me find X in this problem it is so confusing

Answers

Answer:

  x = 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

There are different ways to get there.

1.

The unmarked angle at bottom left is an alternate interior angle with the one at the top marked 50°. So, it is congruent to 50°.

That makes the angles along the line at the bottom be ...

  50° +x° +105° = 180° . . . . . the measure of a linear angle

  x° = 180° -155° = 25°

__

2.

The unmarked angle at top right is a same-side interior angle relative to the one at bottom marked 105°. As such it is supplementary to 105°, and has measure ...

  180° -105° = 75°

This angle (upper right) is an exterior angle to the triangle. As such, it is equal to the sum of the two "remote" interior angles of the triangle—the ones marked 50° and x°.

  75° = 50° +x°

  25° = x° . . . . . . . subtract 50°

__

3.

The unmarked interior angle of the triangle is an alternate interior angle with the one marked 105°. So, it is congruent to 105°. The sum of the triangle interior angles is 180°, so you have ...

  x° +50° +105° = 180°

  x = 180° -155° = 25° . . . . as we had with our first approach

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line is parallel, it has the same slope -- 3

y = 3x + b, sub point (1, 9)

9 = 3(1) + b

9 = 3 + b

b = 9 - 3

b = 6

y = 3x + b -- y = 3x + 6

Answer is y=3x+6

The slope remains the same as it’s parallel. Then replace the x and y with the coordinates (1,9) —> 9=3(1)+b and solve for b. B will equal to 6 and you just put it in y=Mx+b format.

At a local print shop, 4 copies can be made for $2. At this rate, how how many copies could be made for $12?

Answers

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

$2 divided by 4 equals 50 cents

50 cents per copy

$12 will get you 24 copies

Answer:

24 copies

Step-by-step explanation:

$2 ----- 4 copies

$1 ----- 4 ÷2= 2 copies

$12 ----- 2(12)= 24 copies

Alternatively, we can present our working this way:

For every $2, 4 copies can be made.

Number of sets of $2 in $12

= $12 ÷$2

= 6

Since there are 6 sets of $2 and each set of $2 can make 4 copies,

number of copies

= 6(4)

= 24 copies

Sherry is making a snack mix for a school field trip.
HELP

1 cup raisins
1.5 cups almonds
0.5 cup cranberries
0.75 cup chocolate chips
Complete each statement to adjust the ingredients for each new situation if Sherry uses this recipe.

To make 18 bags of snack mix, Sherry needs _ cups of almonds.

Sherry needs 6 cups of granola to make _ bags of the snack mix.

If Sherry uses 1 cup of cranberries, she will need to use _ cups of raisins.

The recipe will make _ bags of the snack mix if Sherry uses only 1 cup of granola.

Answers

Answer:

4.5 cups, 12 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Each batch makes 6 bags, so if she makes 18 bags she needs 3 times as many cups of almonds, 1.5 x 3 = 4.5

If she uses 6 cups of granola she is using twice as much so she could make 12 bags.

Now that Yardley Auto Repair has a different owner, its mechanics make $35 per hour. That is 25% more than they originally made. How much did the mechanics use to make per hour?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So the Yardley people got a raise! Hurray! They make ALL that they made before and a little bit more.

Let x = original pay

100% of x is what they made before.

25% of x is the amount of raise they got.

100% of x should be written 1x, or just x (convert the % to a decimal)

25% of x should be written .25x

So a math sentence that says their original pay plus their raise is now $35 would be written

1x + .25x = 35

Combine the x terms.

1.25x = 35 Now divide both sides by 1.25 to get the x all by itself.

1.25x/1.25 = 35/1.25

x = 28 Remember what x stood for? x is the original pay. The mechanics used to make $28 per hour.

Pythagorean theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2

this theorem only works on triangles with an angle of 90 degrees or a right triangle.

the square root of 900 is 30

a)
864

b)
865

c)
800

d)
850

Answers

Answer:

540 books

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Iqbal's shelf is 7/8 full ..

→ That Means we can say that, iqbal's shelf is (1 - 7/8) = 1/8 is Empty .....

Similarly,

Sachin's shelf is 12/15 full.

→ That Means we can say that, sachin's shelf is (1 - 12/15) = 3/15 is Empty.....

→ Both total Empty = (1/8 + 3/15)

Taking LCM of denominator ,

→ (15+24 /120)

→ 39/120

→ 13/40 part is Empty in both .

Now, it has been said that, when 351 more books are distributed among them , both shelves filled completely .

So, we can say that :----

→ 13/40 part ---------------- 351

→ 1 part ---------------------- 351*40/13 = 1080 = Total Books in Both Selves .

__________________

Now, since bookshelves of the same size and holding books of the same sizes ,,

→ Both have Books in Each = 1080/2 = 540 books .
