Answer: a) 146 units used b) the cost of the number of units used is 3136 p.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
First 100 units = 24 p per unit
Remaining units = 16 p per unit
New reading = 7143 units
Old reading = 6997 units
Difference between the readings would be

So, there are 146 units used.
(B) Calculate the cost of the number of units used
There are 146 units
For the first 100 units = 24 p per unit
For the remaining i.e. 146-1400 = 46 units , cost = 16 p per unit
Total cost of the number of units used is given by

Hence, a) 146 units used b) the cost of the number of units used is 3136 p.
Answer:120
Step-by-step explanation:
-13 and -14
They both are consecutive negative integers that multiply to 182.
-10.2 - 12.85 which would be -23.05
the 10.2 is negative because it is below zero
Answer:
number of girls = 90
Number of boys = 125
Number of adults = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Total people at the summer camp= 235
Let
number of girls=x
Number of boys = x + 35
Number of adults = x - 70
Total people at the summer camp= number of girls + Number of boys + Number of adults
235 = x + (x+35) + (x - 70)
235 = x + x + 35 + x - 70
235 = 3x - 35
Add 35 to both sides
235 + 35 = 3x
270 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3
x= 270/3
= 90
x = 90
number of girls= x = 90
Number of boys = x + 35
= 90 + 35
= 125
Number of adults = x - 70
= 90 - 70
= 20
Total = 90 + 125 + 20
= 235
