Josef and Mai divided some stamps between themselves. Josef got 60% of the stamps. If Josef received 500 more stamps than Mai, how many stamps did Josef receive?

Answers

Answer 1

The number of stamps Josef received out of the total stamps of 2,500 is 1,500 stamps

let

x = total number of stamps

Josef share = 60% of x

= 0.60 × x

= 0.60x

Mai = 40% of x

= 0.40x

Josef = 0.40x + 500

Total = Josef + Mai

x = (0.40 + 500) + 0.40x

x = 0.40x + 500 + 0.40x

x = 0.80x + 500

x - 0.80x = 500

0.20x = 500

x = 500/0.20

x = 2,500

Josef share = 60% of x

= 60/100 × 2,500

= 0.60 × 2,500

= 1,500 stamps

Therefore, the total number of stamps shared between Josef and Mai is 2,500

A builder is buying boxes of nails. She has $187 to spend and each box of nails costs $4.

Answers

She can buy 46 boxes

Answer:

46 boxes of nails

Step-by-step explanation:

She has $187 to spend, the maximum.

187/4 = 46.75

Since she cannot buy 0.75 of a box of nails, she can only buy 46. So she is left with an extra $3 and buys 46 boxes of nails.

Answer:

7x +40x = 204x +30 = 110°3x +10 = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked angles are supplementary, so you have ...

  (4x +30) +(3x +10) = 180

  7x +40 = 180

__

Subtracting 40 gives ...

  7x = 140

  x = 140/7 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

  x = 20

__

Then the angle measures are ...

  4x +30 = 4·20 +30 = 110°

  3x +10 = 3·20 +10 = 70°

a family of four goes to a movie theatre and spends $26.50. they buy 2 tickets for adults, and 3 boxes of popcorn at $2.50 per box. what is the cost of one adult ticket

Answers

Answer:

$9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x2.50= 7.50

26.50-7.5 =19

19/2 = 9.5

9.5 for one adult ticket

Hi!

First, let's add (or multiply) the boxes of popcorn.

2.50 + 2.50 + 2.50 (or 2.50 x 3) is 7.50. so the popcorn all together is $7.50.

Next, we subtract the popcorn cost from the cost altogether.

26.50 - 7.50 = $19

Next, we divide the $19 by two.

19 ÷ 2 = 9.50

To make sure this is true, what we do is multiply 2 x 9.50.

2 x 9.50 = 19.

So 9.50 is your answer.

(NOTICE: your problem says a family of 4. you didn't give me the total for the other 2 people who were going to the movie, so this is just my estimate for just those 2 adults. If it's not correct, that is the reason why, otherwise, it is the answer.)

Hope this helps!

Find (fog)(x) (gof)(x), if f(x) = 1 - 5x; g (x) = |2x + 3| x​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

f (x) = 1 - 5x

g (x) = 2x + 3

find (fog) (x)

it's a composite function so basically we substitute x = 2x + 3 where we see x in f (x) = 1 - 5x

so doing that we'll get

1 - 5(2x + 3)

next expand your brackets

1 - 10x + 15

equate to 0 to make things easier

1 - 10x + 15 = 0

make x the subject

1 + 15 = 10x (this is the same as 10x = 1 + 15)

x = 16/10 (you can leave it as a fraction)

fog(x) = 16/10

find gof (x)

we'll do the same thing again

2(1-5x) + 3

2 -10x + 3 = 0

2 + 3 = 10x

10x = 5

x = 5/10 (reduce)

x = 1/2

gof (x) = 1/2

A scale drawing of triangle ABC has side lengths of 2 centimeters (cm), 4.8 cm, and 5.2 cm. The scale drawing was drawn using the scale of 1 cm=4 inches.
Raquel creates a different scale drawing of the original triangle ABC with the scale factor 116.
What are the side lengths in Raquel's scale drawing?
-1 in., 2.4 in., and 2.6 in.
-0.5 in., 1.2 in., and 1.3 in.
-8 in., 19.2 in., and 20.8 in.
-128 in., 307.2 in., and 332.8 in.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure this is typed all correctly.

what I understand here :

there is an original triangle ABC in inches.

then, using the scale 1 cm = 4 inches a smaller triangle A'B'C' was created.

the side lengths of A'B'C' are 2cm, 4.8cm, 5.2cm.

due to the scale of 1 cm = 4 inches that means ABC has the side lengths 8 inches, 19.2 inches, 20.8 inches.

and now, another scaled triangle A"B"C" is drawn in inches based on ABC with a scan factor of 1/16 (is that correct ?).

that means that all side lengths are divided by 16 for the resulting triangle.

8 inches /16 = 0.5 inches

19.2 inches / 16 = 1.2 inches

20.8 inches / 16 = 1.3 inches

so, the second answer option is correct.

Sandra and Peter together weigh 275 pounds. Sandra and
Martin together weigh 245 pounds. All three together
weigh 410 pounds. What is Sandra's weight alone?

Answers

Answer:

110 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of Sandra, Peter and Martin be S, P and M pounds respectively.

S +P= 275 -----(1)

S +M= 245 -----(2)

S +P +M= 410 -----(3)

(3) -(1):

S +P +M -(S +P)= 410 -275

S +P +M -S -P= 135

M= 135

Substitute M= 135 into (2):

S +135= 245

S= 245 -135

S= 110

Thus, Sarah weighs 110 pounds.
