Willie and Pedro are reading the same book. Willie read 108 pages in 3 hours, and Pedro read 160 pages in 5 hours. How many more pages per hour did Willie read?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 pages per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Willie and Pedro are reading the same book. Willie read 108 pages in 3 hours, and Pedro read 160 pages in 5 hours.

We find how many pages per hour each of them read.

For Willie

Willie read 108 pages in 3 hours,

3 hours = 108 pages

1 hour = x

Cross Multiply

3x = 108 pages × 1 hours

x = 108 pages/3

x = 36 pages per hour

For Pedro

Pedro read 160 pages in 5 hours

5 hours = 160 pages

1 hour = x

Cross Multiply

5x = 160 pages × 1 hours

x = 160 pages/5

x = 32 pages per hour.

How many more pages per hour did Willie read?

This is calculated as:

36 pages/hour - 32 pages per hour

= 4 pages per hour

The Stock Market Nadia is a stockbroker. She earns 14% commission each week. Last week, she
sold $4,500 worth of stocks. How much did she make last week in commission? If she averages that
same amount each week, how much did she make in commission in 2011?

Answers

Answer:

a). Nadia made a total of $825 last week in commission sales

b). The total amount Nadia in commission in 2011=$42,900

Step-by-step explanation: Total amount (2011)=Average weekly commission × number of weeks in 2011  where;  Average weekly commission=$825  number of weeks in 2011=52  replacing;  Total amount (2011)=(825×52)=42,900 . The total amount Nadia in commission in 2011=$42,900.

What is the solution of the system of equations? Enter the solution as an ordered pair (use decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth if necessary) LaTeX: \begin{matrix}y=\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{5}{4}\\-2x+8y=-25\end{matrix}

Answers

Answer:

(3/2, 7/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations;

y = 3x/2 + 5/4..... 1

-2x + 8y = 25 .... 2

Substitute equation 1 into 2;

From 2;

-2x + 8y = 25

-2x + 8(3x/2 + 5/4) = 25

-2x + 12x + 10 = 25

10x = 25 - 10

10x = 15

x = 15/10

x = 3/2

Substitute x = 3/2 into equation 1

From 1;

y = 3x/2 + 5/4

y = 3/2(3/2) + 5/4

y = 9/4 + 5/4

y = 14/4

y = 7/2

Hence the solution to the equation is (x, y) = (3/2, 7/2)

At a park, the cost to rent a bike has an initial fee of $15.00 plus $7.50 per hour. Which equation models the relationship between total cost, y, and the number of hours, x, that the bike is rented?

Answers

Answer:

y = 15 + 7.50x

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, At a park, the cost to rent a bike has an initial fee of $15.00 plus $7.50 per hour.

Let the number of hours is x and the total cost is y.

When the bike is rented for x hours, its cost will be 7.50x.

Total cost (y) in terms of number of hours is given by :

y = 15 + 7.50x

Hence, this is the required equation.

Margo can make 75 smoothies in 1.5 hours. How
many smoothies can Margo make in one hour?

Answers

Answer: 50 smoothies in one hour

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5 / 3 = 0.5

75 / 3 = 25.

0.5 x 2 = 1.

25 x 2 = 50.

Margo can make 50 smoothies in One hour.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Margo can make 50 smoothies in one hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at the hours first. Margo can make 75 smoothies in 1.5 hours. 1.5 divided by 3 is 0.5. Then, 0.5 x 2 is 1. Now that we have the number of hours we need (1 hour), we have to do the exact same thing to the amount of smoothies.

75 divided by 3 is 25. Then, 25 x 2 is 50 smoothies.

So, Margo can make 50 smoothies in one hour.

Hope this helped!

Is x = -3 a solution to the equation 3x - 5 = 4 + 2x ?

subtract both sides by 2x

x - 5 = 4

add both sides by 5

A line that passes through the point -4, -3 and 2,6

Answers

Answer:

The equation is;

2y = 3x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by calculating the slope of the line

m= y2-y1/x2-x1

m = (6+3)/(2+ 4) = 9/6 = 3/2

The point slope form would be;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

Let us use the point (-4,-3)

Thus, we have

y + 3 = 3/2(x+ 4)

2y + 6 = 3x + 12

2y = 3x + 12-6

2y = 3x + 6

m<R = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

m<R + m<S + m<T = 180° (sum of interior angles in a triangle)

(5x - 11) + (3x - 3) + (3x + 18) = 180°

Solve for x.

5x - 11 + 3x - 3 + 3x + 18 = 180

Add like terms

11x + 4 = 180

11x = 180 - 4

11x = 176

x = 16

m<R = (5x - 11)

Plug in the value of x

m<R = 5(13) - 11

m<R = 65

Renee spent 1/8 of the day landscaping around the house. She spent half of the time pulling weeds. What fraction of the day did rehne spend pulling weeds?

Answers

Answer:

The fraction of the day Rehee spent pulling weeds = 1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us take the fraction representing a whole day to be a whole number - 1

Renee spent 1/8 of the day landscaping around the house.

This means she spent 1/8 X 1 landscaping around the house = 1/8

She spent half of the time pulling weeds.

This means she spent 1/2 of 1/8 of  1 landscaping around the house = 1/16

1/2 X 1/8 X 1 = 1/16

The fraction of the day Rehee spent pulling weeds = 1/16

A small rectangle has a width of 4 feet and a length of 10 feet. A larger, similar rectangle has a length of 12 feet. What is the perimeter of the larger rectangle?

Answers

Answer: 33.6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the small rectangle has a width of 4 feet and a length of 10 feet. It simply means that the length is 2.5 times the width.

A larger, similar rectangle has a length of 12 feet. The width will be:

= 12 / 2.5

= 4.8 feet

The perimeter of the larger rectangle will then be:

= 2(Length + Width)

= 2(12 + 4.8)

= 2 × 16.8

= 33.6 feet

Answers

Answer:

cost of each bottle of juice is $0.77

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of 1 bottle be $x

multiplying both side by 3

then cost of 3 bottle will be 3*$x = $3x

given that

total cost of 3 bottles =  $2.31

thus

3x = 2.31

dividing both side by 3

x = 2.31/3 = 0.77

Thus, cost of each bottle of juice is $0.77

Answer:

$0.77 for each bottle of juice

Step-by-step explanation:

Madelyn buys 3 bottles of orange juice at the corner store for a total cost of $2.31.
