A worker at a snack stand opened a new box of cups. On the first day, the worker used 30 cups from the box. On the second day, the worker used 15% of the remaining cups in the box. A total of 90 cups were used on the second day. What was the original number of cups in the box before any cups were used?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

630 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages

This problem is most easily solved backward, i.e., from the final data up to the beginning.

There was a new box of cups and the worker at a snack stand opened it. He first used 30 cups from the box and the second day he uses 15% of the remaining cups in the box, and we are told that represents 90 cups.

If 15% (0.15) equals 90 cups, then the number of cups before the second day was 90/0.15 = 600 cups.

On the first day, we used 30 cups, thus the original number of cups in the box was 600+30=630 cups

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

If we add together 35 and 65 we get 100.  This means altogether there are 100 kids in her school.  Out of those 100 kids, 35 like scary movies.  We can write this as the fraction 35/100.  This is equivalent to 0.35 or 35%.

Answer:

35%

Step-by-step explanation:

35+65

= 100

[tex]\frac{35}{100} * 100[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

time (seconds)

distance (meters)

speed (meters per second)

4 120 30

25 750 30

9 270 30

The required values are in the completed table which has been attached below.

What is the distance?

Distance is defined as the product of speed and time.

Since the Cheetah's speed is constant, the speed must be consistent throughout the table.

To calculate the unknown time and distance, use the following formula:

Speed = Distance/Time = c

When distance = 120m, time = 4 secs

Speed = 120/4 = c

Speed = 30m/s = c

We are to get the distance when the time is 25 secs

Speed = Distance/Time

30 = d₂/25

d₂ = 30 × 25

d₂ = 750 m

To get the time in the third column

Time = Distance/Speed

t₃ = 270/30

t₃ = 9seconds

Therefore, the required values are in the completed table which has been attached below.

When rolling two 6-sided dice, what is the probability of rolling a sum of 7 and 11?

Answers

Answer:

We have two 6-sided dice.

Each one of them has 6 possible outcomes.

The total number of outcomes for the pair, will be equal to the product between the numbers of outcomes for each one of them

Then the total number of outcomes is:

C = 6*6 = 36.

The number of outcomes where the sum of the dice are 7 are:

1 and 6

6 and 1

2 and 5

5 and 2

3 and 4

4 and 3

So we have 6 outcomes where the sum of both numbers is equal to 7.

The probability of rolling a pair such that the sum is equal to 7, is equal to the quotient between the number of outcomes that meet this condition (6) and the total number of outcomes (36)

The probability is:

P = 6/36 = 1/6

Now let's do the same for 11.

The outcomes where the sum is 11 are:

5 and 6

6 and 5

So we have two outcomes.

In this case, the probability will be:

P = 2/36 = 1/18

Answers

Answer:

Please check the attached graph.

The point of intersection will be: (x, y) = (15, -2)

The solution will be:

(x, y) = (15, -2)

Hence, option (B) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please note that the point of intersection is the solution of the two lines on a coordinate plane.

Given the system of equation

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}y=\frac{2}{3}x-12\\ y=2x-32\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Please check the attached graph,

The red line is representing the equation [tex]y\:=\:\frac{2}{3}x-12[/tex]The blue line is representing the equation [tex]y\ =\ 2x-32[/tex]

From the attached graph, it is clear that both the lines meet at the point (15, -2).

In other words,

at x = 15, y = -2

Thus, the point of intersection will be: (x, y) = (15, -2)

We already know that the point of intersection is the solution of the two lines on a coordinate plane.

Therefore, the solution will be:

(x, y) = (15, -2)

Hence, option (B) is correct.

Five years ago, Max was twice as old as Bert. A year from now, the sum of their ages would be 30. How old are they now? Show your solution.

Answers

Answer:

Bert is 11 years old and Max is 17 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations

To solve the system of equations, we use two variables x and y. Let's make:

x = current age of Max

y = current age of Bert

x - 5 = age of Max five years ago

y - 5 = age of Bert five years ago

x + 1 = age of Max one year from now

y + 1 = age of Bert one year from now

According to the conditions of the problem, five years ago, Max was twice as old as Bert, thus:

x - 5 = 2(y - 5)        [1]

It's also known a year from now, the sum of their ages would be 30:

x + 1 + y + 1 = 30        [2]

Operating and simplifying [1]:

x - 5 = 2y - 10

x = 2y - 5       [3]

Operating and simplifying [2]:

x + y + 2 = 30

x + y = 28        [4]

Substituting [3] in [4]:

(2y - 5) + y = 28

Simplifying:

3y - 5 = 28

3y = 33

y = 33/3 = 11

y = 11

From [3]:

x = 2*11 - 5

x = 22 - 5 = 17

x = 17

Max is 17 years old and Bert is 11 years old

Zachary is buying 4 tires for his car. The table shows the prices and the advertised sales for the same type of tire at 4 tire stores.



Based on the advertised sales, at which store will Zachary get the lowest price on 4 tires?​

Answers

Answer:

Zachary is buying 4 tires for his car. The table shows the prices and the advertised sales for the same type of tire at 4 tire stores.

Step-by-step explanation:

At store R, we get the fourth tire for free, if we buy three tires.

Each tire costs $150, so the cost of 3 tires is .

So at store R, we get 4 tires for $450.

At store S, if we buy 4 tires, we pay $70 off for each tire.

Each tire costs $200, so the cost of 4 tires is

If we get $70 off for each tire, we get  for 4 tires.

So at store S, we get 4 tires for

So at store S, we get 4 tires for $520.

Step 2:

At store T, if we buy 4 tires, we pay $200 off the total price.

Each tire costs $175, so the cost of 4 tires is

If we get $200 off the total price, we get  for 4 tires.

So at store T, we get 4 tires for $500.

At store V, if we buy 4 tires, we get 10% of the total price.

Each tire costs $130, so the cost of 4 tires is

If we get 10% off the total price, we get  for 4 tires.

So at store V, we get 4 tires for $468.

Step 3:

So we get 4 tires at store R for $450, we get 4 tires at store S for $520. We get 4 tires at store T for $500 and we get 4 tires at store V for $468.

So Isaiah will get the lowest price on 4 tires at store R.

At store R, we get the fourth tire for free, if we buy three tires.

Each tire costs $150, so the cost of 3 tires is .

So at store R, we get 4 tires for $450.

At store S, if we buy 4 tires, we pay $70 off for each tire.

Each tire costs $200, so the cost of 4 tires is

If we get $70 off for each tire, we get  for 4 tires.

So at store S, we get 4 tires for

So at store S, we get 4 tires for $520.

Step 2:

At store T, if we buy 4 tires, we pay $200 off the total price.

Each tire costs $175, so the cost of 4 tires is

If we get $200 off the total price, we get  for 4 tires.

So at store T, we get 4 tires for $500.

At store V, if we buy 4 tires, we get 10% of the total price.

Each tire costs $130, so the cost of 4 tires is

If we get 10% off the total price, we get  for 4 tires.

So at store V, we get 4 tires for $468.

Step 3:

So we get 4 tires at store R for $450, we get 4 tires at store S for $520. We get 4 tires at store T for $500 and we get 4 tires at store V for $468.

So Isaiah will get the lowest price on 4 tires at store R.
