<span>With the bag having 4/5 lb currently in it, this can be translated to 16/20 lb. Maria wants to scoop out sand until the bag has 1/2 lb, which is 10/20 lb. The scoop that Maria uses is 1/20 lb, so using the equation of 16-10 = 6, Maria can get 6 scoops of sand before the bag contains 1/2 lb.</span>

Caleb bought groceries and paid $1.60 in sales tax.the sales tax rate is 2.5% What was the price of Caleb’s groceries,before tax
Goryan [66]

Let price of the Caleb's groceries was $x.

Given that tax rate is 2.5% or 0.025

Then sales tax is given by product of 0.025 and x.

which is 0.025x.

Given that tax paid is $1.60 so both must be equal

0.025x=1.6

divide both side by 0.025

x=1.6/0.025

x=64

Hence final answer is $64.

Given QT = SR, QV = SU, and the diagram, prove that triangles QUT and SVR are congruent. Write a paragraph proof.
QveST [7]

Answer:

Triangles QUT and SVR are congruent because the defining two sides and an included angle of triangles QUT and SVR are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have QT = SR and

QV = SU

Therefore,

QT = √(UT² + QU²)........(1)

RS = √(VS² + RV²)..........(2)

Since QS = QU + SU = QV + VS ∴ QU = VS

Therefore, since SR = QT and QU = VS, then from (1) and (2), we have UT = RV

Hence since we know all sides of the triangles QUT and SVR are equal and we know that the angle in between two congruent sides of the the triangles QUT and SVR that is the angle in between sides QU and UT for triangle QUT and the angle in between the sides RV and VS in triangle SVR are both equal to 90°, therefore triangles QUT and SVR are congruent.

A dormitory manager buys 38 bed sheets and 61 towels for $791.50. The manager get another 54 bed sheets and 50 towels for $923 f
Lapatulllka [165]
Let x be the cost of each bed sheet and y be the cost of each of the towel. The system of linear equations that best represent the given condition is,
                                   38x + 61y = 791.50
                                   54x + 50y = 923
Solving for x and y in the equation gives, x = 12 and y = 5.5. Thus, one bedsheet costs $12 and each towel costs $5.5.
