You and three friends own a paint shop. The shop's profit was $536 in the first month. You always divide the profits equally. In two months, each of you had made $224. How much profit did the shop make in the second month?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Step 1

Find the profit in two months

Multiply the total amount made by the whole group in two months (\$224) by the total number of persons (4)

4*\$224=\$896

Step 2

Find the profit of the shop in the second month

we know that

Total\ profit\ in\ two\ months=Profit\ first\ month\ +\ Profit\ second\ month

so

Profit\ second\ month=Total\ profit\ in\ two\ months-Profit\ first\ month

substitute the values

Profit\ second\ month=\$896-\$536=\$360

therefore

the answer is

\$360

Mr. Smith has two children. If the older child is a boy, what are the odds that the other child is also a boy?

Answers

50% Because 2 people are there and if 1 is a boy there's a 50% chance that there's another boy.   For example you had 2 gumballs in a gumball machine. You picked one up. There would be chances of picking up 1 of the other. So there's a 50% chance of picking a gumball. :D hope this helps.

If 5 times a number is increased by 4 the result is at least 19.

Answers

Actually if you multiply 5x1 then you get 5 then if you increase it by 4 you would only get 9. But thats just an example.
5x+4\geq19

x would be the number that you are looking for. Since the question says that is is AT LEAST 19, you can make the equation greater than or equal to.
