Given the equation p = 3(s + 100)/4
Where,
p = profit made
s = sales
Solving for s from the given equation
p = 3(s + 100)/4
Multiply both sides by 4
4p = 3(s + 100)
4p = 3s + 300
Subtract 300 from both sides of the equation
4p – 300 = 3s
Same as, 3s = 4p – 300
s = (4p – 300)/3
OR, s = 4p/3 – 100
If any of these two is in the options, it’s the right answer.
If each lap in a pool is 100 meters long,how many laps equal one mile
Round to the nearest tenth.(Hint:1 foot=0.3048 meter)
1 mile = 5280 ft
lets do a ratio: 1ft/.3034m = x ft/100m
the ft and meters sybols cancel, so 1/.3048 =x/100
so 100/.3038 = x = 329.164
so there are 329.164 ft for every 100 meters
to find the number of laps to get to a mile which is 5280, do another ratio
329.164ft/100 m =5280 ft/xm
the left side reduces to 3.29164 =5280/x
you can compute this and see that 5280/3.29164 = 1604.064 meters
1604.064 meters *1 lap / 100m = 16.04064 laps are required to make a mile
Answer:
80+(15x)
Step-by-step explanation:
10 times 8=80
1.5 times 10=15
so she gets 80 dollars for the first 8 hours then for every extra hour she gets 15 dollars
Before we could add these numbers, 3/8 and 7/10 need a common denominator. Both 8 and 10 go into 40.
8 goes into 40 five times
3/8= (3*5)/40 = 15/40
10 goes into 40 four times
7/10= (7*4)/40= 28/40
ANSWER: A) 15/40 and 28/40
Hope this helps! :)
A.) .4 of a balloon is left
To Check:
what I did was divide 172 by 27 and it is 6.37 rounded to ........6 is an equal number so I kept it and .4 will be left over after sharing equally.
B.) 17 more balloons are needs
To Check:
what I was multiply 27 by 7 because each student needs seven balloons and I got 189 after that I subtracted 172 from 189 (189-172=17)
to see how many more balloons are needed.
