Two of your friends go bowling. One friend rents a pair of bowling shoes for $3 and bowls 3 games. The other friend brings his own bowling shoes, bowls 4 games and buys a soda for $0.50. Both friends spend the same amount of money. Show how you can write and solve an equation to find the cost of one game.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The cost of each game is $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the equations for each friend:

Friend 1:

Pays $3 for the shoes, and plays 3 games, then if X is the cost of each game, Friend 1 pays a total of:

$3 + 3*X

Friend 2:

This friend buys a soda for $0.50, and he plays 4 games, remember that the cost of each game was X. then this friend pays:

$0.50 + 4*X

And we know that both friends pay the exact same amount, then we can write:

$3 + 3*X = $0.50 + 4*X

And solve this for X.

We need to isolate X, then we can move all the terms with X to the right, and all the terms without X to the left:

$3 - $0.50 = 4*X - 3*X

$2.50 = (4 - 3)*X = X

This means the cost of each game is $2.50

It takes five people four hours to paint a fence.

How long would it take ten people to paint the same fence at the same rate?

Remember to include units in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we notice that the time taken to paint a fence is inversely proportional to the number people used because as the number of people increase, the time taken to paint the fence decreases.

5 people can paint a fence in 4 hours.

1 person can paint a fence in = 5 x 4

                                                = 20 hours

10 people can paint the fence in = 20/10

                                                      = 2 hours

3x – 2y = 25

Answers

Answer: first one x= -9/7y+-10/7, second x=2/3y+25/3

1. Step-by-step explanation:

add 9y to both sides -7x-9y+9y=10+9y

divide both sides by -7. -7x/-7=9y+10/-7

2. Add 2y to both sides. 3x-2y+2y=25+2y

divide both sides by 3. 3x/3=2y=25/3

Mount Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain when measured from its base. It rises from 5854m below sea level to 4349m above sea level. How tall is Mount Mauna Kea? Use numbers and words to explain your thinking. *

Answers

Answer:

10,203 meters tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea Level is given a value of 0 and is measured as the starting point. Anything below sea level would be a negative value. Therefore, to calculate the total height of Mount Mauna Kea we would need to add the height below sea level with the height above sea level as both positive values.

5854m + 4349m = 10,203m

Finally, we can see that Mount Mauna Kea is 10,203 meters tall.

There were 43 cars in the race. They all finished the 265 miles of the race and they each used about 1 gallon of gas to go 5 miles. About how many gallons og gas did the cars use altogether to finish the race?

Answers

Answer:

2,279 gallons of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

total number of cars in the race, t = 43 cars

total distance traveled by each car, d = 265 miles

5 miles ---------------- 1 gallon of gas

265 miles ------------ x gallon of gas

x = 265 / 5

x = 53 gallons

Total gallons of gas used by the 43 cars in the race is given as;

Total gallons of  gas = 53 gallons x 43 cars

Total gallons of  gas = 2,279 gallons of gas.

Therefore, the toal gallons of gas the cars used altogether to finish the race is 2,279 gallons.

Hakim Ellison wants to buy a 4 door sport utility vehicle 4 wheel drive hybrid. There is an 8% sales tax on the purchase price of the SUV in his state. If he pays the full sticker price for the SUV, how much is the total?

Answers

Answer: $60401.16

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached image, the total price for the vehicle = $55,927.

If he were to pay the full sticker price for the SUV, the total would sum up to

= $55,927 + 8% sales tax

= $55,927 + 8/100( $55,927)

= $55,927 + 0.08($55,927)

= $55,927 + $4474.16

= $60401.16

The total would sum up to $60401.16

Answer: I think there is a mistake for the first one because I did the math and I got 200 added but then there are more answers to this one, I added all the others by 200 and got the next number but then when I got to 6,300 I can't get the 6,700. I get something else, I add 6,000 with 200, and then I get 6,200 instead of getting 6,300. Then I added that 6,200 and 200 and got 6,400. I am confused with the second one, can you please help me understand that one. The third one is also confusing, The one is 12 nuggets eaten per minute.

√170 = 13.04

Answer:

c = 13.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

c² = 11² + 7² = 121 + 49 = 170 ( take the square root of both sides )

c = [tex]\sqrt{170}[/tex] ≈ 13.0 ( to the nearest tenth )
