If 300 boxes of medical sponges cost $25.00, how many boxes can you purchase for $0.50?

You have to divide 25 by 300 which would give you 0.083 which means it is 10 cents per box if you round up which means you can buy 5

You can purchase 6 boxes of medical sponges for $0.50.

Step 1:
Divide 300 by 25.00
300/25= 12
So you get 12 boxes for 1 dollar.
We have 50 cents.

Step 2:
Multiply 12 by 0.50
12*.5 = 6
So you can buy 6 boxes for $0.50.

Hope this helps you! (:

Hay 162 refugiados en el campamento. Si hubiera mas de 162, ya no recivirian la misma racion de comida. Cada uno recive un paquete de galletas, dos paquetes de arroz y pienso k una botella y media de agua (aunque lo de el agua suene un poko ilogico).

PLEASE HELP, I’ve been stuck on this question for a whileIn the diagram, AB is divided into equal parts. The coordinates of poin

castortr0y [4]

AB is divided into 8 equal parts and point C is 1 part FROM A TO B, so the ratio is 1:7, with C being 1/7 of the way. The ratio is k, found by writing the numerator of the ratio (1) over the sum of the numerator and denominator (1+7). So our k value is 1/8. Now we need to find the rise and the run (slope) of the points A and B. $m= \frac{5-9}{9-(-3)}$ . That gives us a rise of -4 and a run of 12. The coordinates of C are found in this formula: $C(x,y)=[ x_{1} +k(run), y_{1} +k(rise)]$ . Filling in accordingly, we have $C(x,y)=[-3+ \frac{1}{8}(12),9+ \frac{1}{8}(-4)]$ which simplifies a bit to $C(x,y)=(-3+ \frac{3}{2},9- \frac{1}{2})$ . Finding common denominators and doing the math gives us that the coordinates of point C are $(- \frac{3}{2}, \frac{17}{2})$ . There you go!

James is four years younger than Austin. If three times James' age is increased by the square of Austin's age, the result is 28.

lara31 [8.8K]

Let's use J for James's age and A for Austin's age. The equations are:

J = A - 4
3J + A² = 28

Just plug (A - 4) in the place of J in the second equation. This gives you:

3(A - 4) + A² = 28
-->
A² + 3A - 12 = 28
-->
A² + 3A - 40 = 0
-->
(A - 5)(A + 8) = 0
-->
A = 5 or -8

-8 is nonsense, so Austin is 5 years old. Therefore, James is 1 year old.
