Let's assume he bought "x" tokens initially.

He spent 3 over 8 of them at ring toss game booth. So he used (3x/8) tokens there.

His remaining tokens after first game = x - (3x/8) = (5x/8) tokens.

He then spent 2 over 5 of them at darts game booth. So he spent (2/5)(5x/8) = (x/4) tokens there.

His left over tokens after second game = (5x/8) - (x/4) = (3x/8) tokens.

Now he bought another 35 tokens, his new balance = 35 + (3x/8)  tokens.

His new balance is ten more than his initially bought tokens.

So 35 + (3x/8) - x = 10

35 + (3x-8x)/8 = 10

35 + (-5x/8) = 10

(5x/8) = 35 - 10

(5x/8) = 25

5x = 25*8 = 200

x = 200/5 = 40

Hence, he bought initially 40 tokens.

If the dimensions of the following cylinder are quadrupled, what will be the volume of the new similar cylinder?
Alik [6]

Answer:  First option is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Radius = 11 inches

Height = 14 inches

Now, according to question, we have mentioned that all the dimensions of the cylinder is to be quadrupled i.e. four times.

Then,

Radius is given by

4\times 11=44 inches

Height is given by

14\times 4=56\ inches

As we know the formula for " Volume of cylinder ":

V=\pi r^2h\\\\V=3.14\times 44\times 44\times 56=340426.24\ in^3

Hence, our volume of new similar cylinder is 340426.24 cubic in.

Therefore, First option is correct.

The line with the equation 4/5x +1/3y=1 is graphed one the xy-plane. What is the x-coordinate of the x-intercept of the line?
leva [86]

Answer:

x = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept looks like (x, 0); the coordinate 0 indicates that the point lies on the x-axis.  If we start with 4/5x + 1/3 y= 1 and let y = 0, we will get an equation for the x-intercept:

(4/5)x + (1/3)(0) =1

Then 4/5x = 1, and (5/4)(4/5)x = (1)(4/5).

Thus, x = 4/5, and the x-intercept is (4/5, 0).

Kazeer [188]
To reach the second floor you would look at all ways to enter to building(8) and multiply it by the number of ways to reach the second floor (12).

8 x 12 = 96 possibilities

Think of it in groups.

1st door and 12 possible sets of steps
2nd door and 12 possible sets of steps
3rd door and 12 possible sets of steps
4th door and 12 possible sets of steps
