S - the number of the t-shirts;
h - the number of hats:
The system of equations:
s + h = 23
10 s + 12 h = 246
--------------------------
s = 23 - h
10 * ( 23 - h ) + 12 h = 246
230 - 10 h + 12 h = 246
2 h = 246 - 230
2 h = 16
h = 16 : 2
h = 8
s = 23 - 8
s = 15
Answer: The basketball team sold 15 t-shirts and 8 hats.

What is the sum of all positive integers smaller than $1000$ that can be written in the form $100\cdot 2^n$, where $n$ is an int

netineya [11]

Answer:

The sum is 1575.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that positive integers smaller than 1000 and that can be written in the form $100\cdot 2^n$

Where n is integer that means the value of n can be a positive number or a negative number.

For n = 0

$100\cdot 2^{0}=100$

For n=-1

$100\cdot 2^{-1}=50$

For n=-2

$100\cdot 2^{-2}=25$

For n = -3 the obtained number is not an integer.

Now consider the positive value of n.

For n=1

$100\cdot2^1 = 200$

For n=2

$100\cdot2^2 = 400$

For n=3

$100\cdot2^3 = 800$

For n=4 the obtained number is greater than 1000.

Now add all the numbers.

$100+50+25+200+400+800=1575$

Hence, the sum is 1575.

Solve the following multiplication and division problems. a. 8 T. 1,398 lb. 14 oz. × 6 b. 349 lb. 6 oz. ÷ 130 c. 6 T. 294 lb. ÷

tester [92]

Answer: a) 278382 oz

b) 43 oz

c) 64.1 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 8 T. 1,398 lb. 14 oz. × 6

First we need to change it in 'oz'.

As we know that

$1\ ton=32000\ oz\\\\1\ lb=16\ oz$

so, it becomes,

$8\times 32000+1398\times 16+14\ oz\\\\=278382\ oz$

8 T. 1,398 lb. 14 oz. × 6 becomes

$278382\times 6\\\\=1670292\ oz$

b) 349 lb. 6 oz. ÷ 130

It becomes,

$349\times 16+6\ oz\\\\=5590\ oz\\\\\text{ at last it becomes}\\\\=\frac{5590}{130}\\\\=43\ oz$

c) 6 T. 294 lb. ÷ 3,071

First it becomes,

$6\times 32000+294\times 16\ oz\\\\=196704\ oz$

At last it becomes,

$\frac{196704}{3071}\\\\=64.1\ oz$

Hence, a) 278382 oz

b) 43 oz

c) 64.1 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Full question

Janie ordered boxed lunches for a student advisory committee meeting. Each lunch cost 4.25. The total cost of the lunches is 53.75, including a 7$ delivery fee. Write and solve an equation to find x the number of boxed lunches Janie ordered

First of all subtract the delivery feesince it was inckuded in the total cost, this will now be the total cost of all the noxed lunches ordered by Janie, then divide the balance of the total cost by the cost of one boxed lunch to get thd total boxed kunches

X= 53.75-7/4.25

X= 53.75-7= 46.75/4.25

X=11

If 2.5 mol of dust particles were laid end to end along the equator, how many times would they encircle the planet? The circumfe

Natalka [10]

Answer:

They encircle the planet $3.76\times 10^{11}$ times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

We have 2.5 mole of dust particles and the Avogadro's number is $6.022\times 10^{23}$

Thus, the number of dust particles is:

$2.5\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=15.055\times 10^{23}$

Diameter of a dust particles is 10μm and the circumference of earth is 40,076 km.

Convert the measurement in meters.

Diameter: $10\mu m\times \frac{10^{-6}m}{\mu m} =10^{-5}m$

If we line up the particles the distance they could cover is:

$15.055\times 10^{23}\times 10^{-5}=15.055\times 10^{18}=1.5055\times 10^{19}$

Circumference in meters:

$40,076km\times \frac{1000m}{1km}=40,076,000 m$

Therefore,

$\frac{1.5055\times 10^{19}}{40,076,000} = 3.76\times 10^{11}$

Hence, they encircle the planet $3.76\times 10^{11}$ times.
