jess puts 1 2/3 tomatoes in each salad. Dott ate 1 1/2 salads yesterday and 2 7/10 salads today. How many more tomatoes did she eat today? Explain how you solved this problem.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1 and 2/3 per salad
1 and 1/2 salad eaten then 2 and 7/10 salad eaten
subtract salads eaten
1 and 1/2=1 and 5/10
2 and 7/10-1 and 5/10=1and 2/10=1 and 1/5
convert to improper fraction
6/5=salads eaten

so 1 and 2/3 to imporper is 5/3

so multiply amount per salad by salad eaten
5/3 times 6/5=30/15=2
answer is 2 more tomatoes

Answer 2

Answer: First of all... Who would name their kid dott??!?!!

Decimal time:
1 2/3= 1.666, forever
2 7/10= 2.7
1 1/2= 1.5

1.6666 forever times 1.5 = the amount of tomatoes she ate yesterday. = 2.5

1.666 forever times 2.7 = the amount of tomatoes she ate today. = 4.5

4.5 - 2.5 = 2

She ate 2 more tomatoes today than she did yesterday.

the cattle train
speed - 36.5 km/h
time - x h

the passenger train
speed - 29.2 km/h
time - (2.4+x) h

The cattle train caught up to the passenger train so the distance they travelled is the same.
Distance is speed times time.

$36.5 * x=29.2 * (2.4+x) \n36.5x=70.08+29.2x \n36.5x-29.2x=70.08 \n7.3x=70.08 \nx=(70.08)/(7.3) \nx=9.6 \n \n 2.4+x=2.4+9.6=12$

The passenger train travelled for 12 hours before the cattle train caught up.

Used brute force to figure this one out and got lucky at t=12.

What you need to know:

$d=\left| x-y \right|$

t = time travelled (in hours)

x = distance passenger train has travelled

y = distance cattle train has travelled

d = distance between both trains in km

------------------------------------

RESULTS AND TIME SNAPSHOTS:

When:

t=0, x=0, y=0, d=0

t=2.4, x=70.08, y=0, d=70.08

t=4.8, x=140.16, y=87.6, d=52.56

t=7.2, x=210.24, y=175.2, d=35.04

t=9.6, x=280.32, y=262.8, d=17.52

t=12, x=350.4, y=350.4, d=0 <-------

So your answer is 12 hours.

A jump suit costs 125 dollars.The rate of the discount is 20 percent.What is the discount

Answers

10% of $125 is $12.50.

Now 20%=2*10%.

So 20% of $125 is $25.

If you were to receive a 20% discount, you'd only have to pay $100 to bag the jump suit.

a $25 discount is what the discount is.

D.16/7

Answers

$16^2$
$16*16$

$A$

$7x-1=9$
$7x-1+1 = 9+1$
$7x=10$
$(7x)/(7) = (10)/(7)$
$x= (7)/(10)$
$C$

1) I think you meant 16^2. That's 4^4, so it would be 64*4 which is 256, A
2) 7x-1 = 9
7x=10
x=10/7
