Answer:

170

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations derived from given info.

  • P=2J
  • J=E+40
  • P+J+E=300

Use some substitution now.

  • P=2(E+40)
  • J=E+40
  • P+J+E=300

Substitute first and second equation into third.

  • 2(E+40)+E+40+E=300
  • 2E+80+E+40+E=300
  • 4E+120=300
  • 4E=180
  • E=45

Emily has 45 stickers. But we want to know what Peter has.

Use P=2(E+40)

  • P=2(45+40)
  • P=90+80
  • P=170

Peter has 170 stickers.

The Williams family wants to cover one wall in their living room with 1-foot square mirror tiles. The wall measures 8 feet by 10
ikadub [295]

Answer:80 mirror tiles will be needed to cover the wall is 80

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimension of one wall in living room is 8 feet by 10 feet. The wall is rectangular in shape. The area of a rectangle is expressed as

Length × width. The area of one wall in the living room would be

8 × 10 = 80 feet^2

The Williams family wants to cover one wall in their living room with 1-foot square mirror tiles.

The number of mirror tiles that they will need to cover the wall would be

80/1 = 80 mirror tiles.

Shota is a dangerous fellow who likes to go rock climbing in active volcanoes. One time, when he was 303030 meters below the edg
Alex

Answer:

5m/s;

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Initial position = 30 m below

He climbed at a constant rate, and was 7.5 m below after 4.5 s.

Distance climbed or covered in 4.5 seconds :

(Initial position - current position)

(30 - 7. 5)m = 22.5 meters

Using the relation:

Speed = distance covered / time taken

Therefore,

Shota's speed = 22.5m / 4.5s = 5m/s

Time taken to reach edge of volcano :

Distance left to cover = 7.5m

Speed = 5m/s

Time required to cover remaining distance :

= distance / speed

= (7.5m ÷ 5m/s) = 1.5s

Total time to reach edge :

(4.5 + 1.5)s = 6 seconds

If h:k = 2:5, x:y=3:4 and 2h+x:k+2y = 1:2, find the ratio h-x: k-y.​
fenix001 [56]

Given:

h:k=2:5,x:y=3:4,2h+x:k+2y=1:2

To find:

h-x:k-y

Solution:

We have, h:k=2:5 and x:y=3:4.

Let the values of h and k are 2a and 5a respectively.

Let the values of x and y are 3b and 4b respectively.

We have,

2h+x:k+2y=1:2

It can be written as

\dfrac{2h+x}{k+2y}=\dfrac{1}{2}

\dfrac{2(2a)+(3b)}{5a+2(4b)}=\dfrac{1}{2}

\dfrac{4a+3b}{5a+8b}=\dfrac{1}{2}

2(4a+3b)=1(5a+8b)

On further simplification, we get

8a+6b=5a+8b

8a-5a=8b-6b

3a=2b

a=\dfrac{2b}{3}

Now,

h-x:k-y=\dfrac{h-x}{k-y}

h-x:k-y=\dfrac{2-3b}{5a-4b}

h-x:k-y=\dfrac{2\times \dfrac{2b}{3}-3b}{5\times \dfrac{2b}{3}-4b}

h-x:k-y=\dfrac{\dfrac{4b}{3}-3b}{\dfrac{10b}{3}-4b}

On further simplification, we get

h-x:k-y=\dfrac{\dfrac{4b-9b}{3}}{\dfrac{10b-12b}{3}}

h-x:k-y=\dfrac{-5b}{-2b}

h-x:k-y=\dfrac{5}{2}

h-x:k-y=5:2

Therefore, the ratio h-x:k-y is 5:2.
