Melisande collected 14 bottles on Saturday and 9 bottles on Sunday for recycling. On Monday, she took all the bottles to the rec

ycling center, where they paid her a certain amount, b, for each bottle. However, she had to pay the recycling center a one-time service fee of $0.25. If she left there with $3.20 for the bottles, what is the value of b?

Answer: The value of b is $0.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total bottles co0llected = 14+9 =23

Payment for each bottle = b

Total payment she will get = 23b

One -time service fee = $0.25

She has left = $3.20

According to the question,

23b - 0.25 = 3.20

⇒23b = 3.20+0.25

⇒23b = 3.45

⇒b = 0.15   [divide both sides by 23]

Cost of each bottle = $ 0.15

hence, the value of b is $0.15.

Figures R, S, and T are all scaled copies of one another. Figure S is a scaled copy of R using a scale factor of 3. Figure T is
MakcuM [25]

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

1/2

1/3

6

1/6

<em><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></em>

When we are finding the opposite of a scale factor, the scale factor is always the reciprocal. E.g. From S to R, the scale factor is 3, so from R to S, the scale factor is 1/3 so:

1. From T to S, it's the reciprocal of the scale factor (2) so 1/2

2. From S to R, it's the reciprocal of the scale factor (3) so 1/3

3. From R to T, is the from a figure to a figure to a figure so we can multiply the two scale factors (2 and 3) to get 6

4. From T to R, that's the opposite of R to T, so it's the reciprocal of the scale factor from R to T (6) so 1/6

If the perimeter of a square is 5 feet, how many inches long is each side of the square?
marysya [2.9K]
Well since we know that the perimeter of a square is four times the length of one of its sides. We just have to divide 5 by 4 to get the length of one side:

5feet /4 sides = 1.25 feet

And to finish off, we have to convert feet to inches:

<u>1 foot      </u>= <u>12 inches</u>
1.25 feet    x inches

x inches = 12 inches x 1.25 feet ÷ 1 foot
x inches = 15 inches

Therefore, each side is 15 inches long.

Hope this helps!

Levi bought 14 chicken wings for $22.40 how much would it cost for 12 wings
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

x =19.20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

14 wings      12 wings

------------- = ---------------

22.40          x

Using cross products

14x = 22.40 * 12

14x =268.8

Divide each side by 14

14x/14 = 268.8/14

x =19.20
