Lets focus on what we know first. Natalie can pick 135 Berries in 15 minutes. Lets find out how many berries she can pick per minute.
In order to do so, We have to divide 135 by 15.

135/15=9
This means that Natalie can pick 9 berries per minute. Given that we want her to pick 486, we will need to divide that number by 9 berries to find out how many minutes it will take to get her to that number of berries.

486/9=54

This means that it will take Natalie 54 minutes in order to pick 486 berries.

Tickets to a musical cost $30 for adults and $12 for children. At one particular performance 960 people attended and $19 080 was
postnew [5]
In order to solve this, you have to set up a systems of linear equations.

Let's say that children = c and adults = a

30a + 12c = 19,080
a + c = 960

I'm going to show you how to solve this system of linear equations by substitution, the easiest way to solve in my opinion.

   a + c = 960 
       - c    -    c
 ---------------------- ⇒ Step 1: Solve for either a or c in either equation.
   a = 960 - c 



20(960 - c)+ 12c = 19,080
19,200 - 20c + 12c = 19,080
   19,200 - 8c = 19,080
 - 19,200         - 19,200
---------------------------------- ⇒ Step 2: Substitute in the value you got for a or c
         8c = -120                    into the opposite equation.                                                
       ------  ---------
          8         8
 
         c = -15



30a + 12(-15) = 19,080
   30a - 180 = 19,080
          + 180  +     180
 -------------------------------
   30a = 19,260
  -------   -----------
    30          30
     
       a = 642

I just realized that there can't be a negative amount of children, so I'm sorry if these results are all wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2(x+3) = 2x + 6 or 2x - y = -6

y = 5 + 3x or 3x - y = -5

Dmitri wants to cover the top and sides of the box shown with glass tiles that are 3 5 mm square How many tiles does he need 20
Anna35 [415]
Lets split the box in pieces and then add:
top = 20*15 = 300
sidesA = 2*20*9 = 360, is multiplied  by 2 cause there are 2 sides like this
sidesB = 2*9*15 = 270, is multiplied  by 2 cause there are 2 sides like this
so in total we have:
total = 300 + 360 + 270 = 930 cm^2
if we express this quantity in mm^2 we have:
<span>1cm² = 100 mm²</span>total = 930*100 = 93000 mm^2
so if the tiles are 5 mm^2 we need:
total tiles = <span>93000/5 = 18600
we need 18600 tiles of 5 mm^2</span>
