The panthers team won exactly 2 of its first 9 games. By winning all its remaining N games, the Panthers ended with victories in exactly half of the games it played. What number does N represent?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

2 out of 9 games won

After the N games, the games won would be HALF. Thus, we can write a ratio and solve for the variable N:

(2+N)/(9+N)=(1)/(2)

Now we cross multiply and solve for N [the number of remaining games that all are won]:

(2+N)/(9+N)=(1)/(2)\n2(2+N)=1(9+N)\n4+2N=9+N\n2N-N=9-4\nN=5

N represents 5

Sarah's craft project uses pieces of yarn that are 1/8 yard long. She has a piece of yarn that is 3 yards long. How many 1/8 yard peices can she cut and still have 1 1/4 yards left?

Answers

If she used all of her yarn, she'd have 24 pieces. If she wanted 1.25 left, she'd have ten less because 24 • .125 = 8, and 1/4 of eight = 2, and 2 + 8 = 10.

So she'd have 14 pieces.

Mrs. Dimas has $130 to but basketballs for Edison Middle School. How many can she buy at $15 each? interpret the reminder

you can't go over budget

cost=cost per backetball times number of basketbals
cost=15 times b
cost≤130
15b≤130
divide both sides by 15
b≤8 and 10/15
b≤8 and 2/3
round down because you can't buy 2/3 basketball

buy 8

a cube shaped box has a volume of 125 cubic inches. if the box is packed full of cubes with edge lengths of 1/3 inch how many cubes can fit along one side of the box? Show how you know

Answers

Answer: There are 3375 cubes that can be fit along one side of the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Volume of cube shaped box = 125 cubic inches

Length of small cubes = (1)/(3)\ inch

So, volume of small cubes would be

a^3=((1)/(3))^3=(1)/(27)

so, Number of cubes that can be fit along one side of the box is given by

125/ (1)/(27)\n\n=125* 27\n\n=3375

Hence, there are 3375 cubes that can be fit along one side of the box.
