Elijah and Jonathan play on the same soccer team. They have played 3 of their 15,

Lynna [10]

Answer:

Only Elijah's model is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given in the question tells us they have 12 games left on their soccer team. Each one of them tried to simulate the fact by creating some model which look like a balance between quantities.

Elijah placed 3 cubes of value 1 and a cube of value x on one side of a balance. On the other side, he placed 15 cubes of value 1. He was obviously modeling the fact that 15 cubes (games due to play in our case) should be equal to 3 cubes (games already played) plus the x numbers left to play

This model if perfect, since the only way to equilibrate the balance is setting x to 12, the games left to play

Jonathan used a table with 3 x's in a row and a 15 in the second row, trying to model the same situation. To our interpretation, this table doesn't show the number of games left to play. If we equate 3x = 15, we get x=5 which has nothing to do with the situation explained in the question, so this model is not correct.

Andrew invested $20,000 in mutual funds and received a sum of $35,000 at the end of the investment period. Calculate the ROI.

mario62 [17]

Answer: $15,000

As $35,000-$20,000=$15,000.

That's basically the profit he had made, or the return on his investment (ROI).

As he already had $20,000, he had "only" made $15,000.

Marissa has twice as much money as Frank. Christina has $20 more than Marissa. If Christina has $100, how much money does Frank

qwelly [4]

Answer:

a. Take a grid that shows represents the amount of money Frank has,

Say F,

( shown below ),

b. Since, Marissa has twice as much money as Frank,

So, the amount Marissa has = 2F

If M represents the amount Marissa has,

M = 2F

c. Now, Christina has $20 more than Marissa,

Add 20 to the grid M

d. The below diagram provides enough information to determine the value of the variable m

e. The amount Christina has = M + 20 = 2F + 20

According to the question,

2F + 20 = 100

2F = 80

F = 40

Hence, the amount frank has = $ 40,

Amount Marissa has = 2(40) = $ 80,

During a field trip, 60 students are put into equal-sized groups. Describe two ways to interpret 60÷5 60 ÷ 5 in this context. Fi

Afina-wow [57]

The second question:

Consider the division expression $7\frac{1}{2} / 2$ . Select all multiplication equations that correspond to this division expression.

$2 * ? = 7\frac{1}{2}$ $7\frac{1}{2} * ?= 2$ $? * 2 = 7\frac{1}{2}$

$2* 7\frac{1}{2} = ?$ $? * 7\frac{1}{2} = 2$

Answer:

1. See Explanation

2. $2 * ? = 7\frac{1}{2}$ and $? * 2 = 7\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a):

Given

$Students = 60$

$Group = Equal\ Sized$

Required

Interpret $\frac{60}{5}$ in 2 ways

<u>Interpretation 1:</u> Number of groups if there are 5 students in each

<u>Interpretation 2:</u> Number of students in each group if there are 5 groups

<u>Solving the quotient</u>

$Quotient = \frac{60}{5}$

$Quotient = 12$

<u>For Interpretation 1:</u>

The quotient means: 12 groups

<u>For Interpretation 2:</u>

The quotient means: 12 students

Solving (b):

Given

$7\frac{1}{2} / 2$

Required

Select all equivalent multiplication equations

Let ? be the quotient of t $7\frac{1}{2} / 2$

So, we have:

$7\frac{1}{2}/2 = ?$

Multiply through by 2

$2 * 7\frac{1}{2}/2 = ? * 2$

$7\frac{1}{2} = ? * 2$

Rewrite as:

$? * 2 = 7\frac{1}{2}$ --- This is 1 equivalent expression

Apply commutative law of addition:

$2 * ? = 7\frac{1}{2}$ --- This is another equivalent expression
