Answer:

17 regular popcorn bags and 23 super size bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

A group of 40 people went to the theme park. While there, each person bought popcorn.

Let the regular popcorn bags be = x

Let the super size bags be = y

x+y=40        ................(1)

Next equation becomes:

6x+8y=286        ...............(2)

Multiplying (1) by 6 : 6x+6y=240

Now subtracting this from (2) we get,

2y=46

=> y = 23

And x = 40-23

=> x = 17

So, there were 17 regular popcorn bags and 23 super size bags that the group bought.

If two lines are perpendicular, the products of their slopes will be -1. Therefore, we're looking for a line with slope of -1/2. Let's check each answer:

A: 5 - 3 / (-2 - 3) = 2 / -5    

B: 6 - 5 / 6 - 5 = 1

C: 5 - 3 / 4 - 3 = 2

D: 4 - 3 / 3 - 5 = -1/2

Given that

Total contributed = $1.69

Number of coins = 5

based on the above information,

The number of nickels to be contributed is

Here first we have to determine the prime factors of 169 i.e 13 and 13

This represents that there are 13 member gives their $0.13 per person so it would be $1.69

Also there are 13 cents out of which 3 cents would be 3 pennies the remaining 10 cents would be 2 nickels

Scarlett is playing a video game. She spends 900900900 minerals to create 181818 workers. Each worker costs the same number of m
Natalka [10]

Answer:

m=50w

Step-by-step explanation:

In the proportional relationship between mmm, the amount of minerals, and www, the number of workers, one constant of proportionality is the mineral cost per worker. It is the number we multiply by the number of workers to get the number of mineral

The constant of proportionality is 50 This means we can multiply , 50,the number of workers to get the amount of minerals.

Now, let's write the equation:

amount of minerals m

=minerals per worker×number of workers

=50w

One correct equation is:

m=50w
