Answer:

<h2>$128</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is on rate.

firstly we have to find the rate at which 1 ton is sold

given that 3/8 ton is sold for $24

hence 1 ton will be sold for X

cross multiply

X = 24/3/8

inverse the denominator and multiply the result with the numerator we have

X= 24*8/3

X= $64

Now having found out that 1 ton cost $64

2 tons will cost =64*2

                         = $128

Therefore at this rate two tons will cost $128

Chicxulub is a crater on the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico. It was formed 6.5 × 107 years ago. Vredefort crater in South Africa wa
Rus_ich [418]

Answer: The oldest one is Vredfort Crater.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is:

Chicxulub was formed 6.5x10^7 years ago.

Vredfort was formed 2x10^9 years ago.

Sudbury basin was formed 1.8x10^9 years ago.

Acraman crater was formed 5.8x10^8 years ago.

We want to find the oldest, so we need to find the larger number of the 4 we have.

For this, we need to see at the exponents, the larger the exponent the larger the number.

We have two with a 9 in the exponent:

Vredfort and Sudbury.

Now we look at the number, Vredfort has 2x10^9 and Sudbury has 1.8x10^9.

Both have the same exponent, but the scalar of Vredfort is larger (2 is greater than 1.8) so we have that Vredfort is older.

0.2x + 0.3y = 1.3.<br>0.4r + 0.5y = 2.3. solve by using substitution ​
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

x=2, y=3.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.2x + 0.3y = 1.3

0.4x + 0.5y = 2.3

From the first equation   y = (1.3 - 0.2x) / 0.3

Substituting in second equation:

0.4x + 0.5(1.3 - 0.2x) / 0.3 = 2.3

Multiply through by 0.3:

0.12x + 0.5(1.3 - 0.2x) =  0.69

0.12x + 0.65 - 0.1x = 0.69

0.02x = 0.04

x = 2.

Substituting for x in equation 1:

0.2* 2 + 0.3y = 1.3

0.4 + 0.3y = 1.3

0.3y = 1.3 - 0.4 = 0.9

y = 3.

Check in equation 2:

0.4 * 2 + 0.5(3) =   0.8 + 1.5 = 2.3.

- Correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The company has two office buildings which hold 30,000 employees.

The headquarters contains 14 times as many employees as the overseas branch.

Therefore, the number of employees in the headquarters is:

14 * 30000 = 420000 employees

Their headquarters contains 420000 employees.
