Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Red velvet : Chocolate Cupcakes
28:42 can be reduced to 2:3 as both share 14 as a factor.
x : 24
24/3 = 8
8 x 2 = 16
16 red velvets are in a box with 24 chocolate

Glen collects a total of 450 stamps from the United States,Great Britain,and India. In his collection, 52% of the stamps are US stamps. He has 3/5 as many Indian stamps as British stamps. How many Indian stamps does Glen have? What percent of Glen' collection are British stamps?

Answers

First, you are going to find out how many stamps 52% of the 450 stamps is.

To do so, multiply 450 by 0.52 and get 234.

Now, subtract the number from 450 to find out how many stamps are from India and Great Britain. You now have 216.

Since 3/5 of the stamps are from India, we are going to divide by 5 because we are working with fifths of the 216 stamps.

216/5 = 43.2

Multiply 43.2 by 3 to get 3/5 of the 216 stamps. You get 129.6 stamps from India. You can say he has about 130 stamps, or down round to the nearest whole stamp which is 129.

To find the percent of British stamps Glen has, subtract 129.6 from 216. You get 86.4

Now divide 86.4/216 to get 0.4, which as a percent is 40%.

Glen has 234 stamps from the Unites States. About 130 stamps from India. And 40% of his stamps are from Great Britain.

Another word problem. Please show how you get the answer. A particular number was divided by 5 and then 12 was taken from that quotient. Finally, this difference was multiplied by 5. Given the product was -55, what was the number?

Answers

The number would be 5. 5 divided by 5 equals 1. Then 1-12 would be -11 and then you do -11 times 5 which gives you -55!

Which graph shows the solution to the system of inequalities? y<1/2x-2 y≤-2x+4

Answers

Answer:

First of all, we need to graph the equation of the two lines and find each region separately.

The first line is:

$y=(1)/(2)x-2$

This line has been plotted in the first figure below. To find the feasible region, let's take a random point and test the inequality, so let's take $(0,0)$

$y<(1)/(2)x-2 \n \n 0<(1)/(2)(0)-2 \n \n 0<-2 \ False!$

Since for (0,0) the inequality is false, then the region for this inequality is not where the point (0, 0) lies, but the other region, that is, the one under the line as indicated in the second figure. Keep in mind that points on the border of this region, that is, points that lies on the line aren't included in the region because the symbol < tells us that the equality is not included.

The second line is:

$y=-2x+4$

This line has been plotted in the third figure below. To find the feasible region, let's take (0,0) again, so let's take $(0,0)$

$y\leq -2x+4\n \n 0\leq -2(0)+4 \n \n 0<4 \ True!$

Since for the point (0,0) the inequality is true, then the region for this inequality is where this point lies as indicated in the fourth figure. Keep in mind that points on the border of this region, that is, points that lies on the line are included in the region because the symbol ≤ tells us that the equality is included.

Finally, the solution to the system of inequalities is the one where the red and blue region overlap as indicated in the fifth figure below.
