Zoey made 5 and 1/2 cups of trail mix for a camping trip. She wants to divide the trial mix into 3/4 cup servings. Ten people are going on the camping trip. Can Zoey make enough 3/4 cup servings so each person on the trip has one serving?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: No she can't.  We could divide 5 1/2 cups by 3/4 cups but there is an easier way.

Let's change 3/4 to .75 and multiply by 10 since we need 10 servings.

.75 x 10 = 7.5  so she would need 7.5 cups or 7 1/2 cups
Since she only has 5  1/2 cups,  she does not have enough.

Find the value of x in the isosceles triangle shown below.

Answers

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

This isosceles triangle is composed of two right triangles with sides 8,√(80) , and y

As we have two sides of a right triangle, we can find the third using the Pythagorean Theorem

(√(80) )^2=8^2+y^2\n\n80=64+y^2\n\ny^2=16\n\ny=4

As this is an isosceles triangle, these two right triangles are equal, this means that x=2y

Therefore, x=2(4)=8

Zulfiya earns her regular pay $7.50 per hour for up to 40 hours of work in a week. For each hour over 40 hours of work in a week, Zulfiya is paid 1.5 times her regular pay. How much does Zulfiya earn for a week in which she works 46 hours? The answer is $367.5

Please show me the way of your solution

Answers

Zulfiya get $7.5 for each hour.
If she works more than 40 hrs she gets 1.5 times her regular pay.
She works for 46 hrs.
7.5×40=300
For next six hrs she gets 1.5 times her pay i.e. 7.5×1.5=11.25 for one hr.
for 6 hrs she gets 11.25×6=67.5
For 46 hrs she earns 300+67.5= $367.5

Edward buys a novel for $8.40 and a bookmark for $1.20 from a bookstore. The store is having a sale, and everything is 35% off! How much does Edward pay for both items ( not including tax )?

Answers

Let's start with calculating the $8.40 novel with the 35% off. 

First, we need to convert the percentage (35%) into a decimal. We can do this by dividing the percentage over 100.

35/100 = 0.35

Now, our next step is to find 0.35% of $8.40 (original price of the novel). To do this, you need to multiply the percentage by the original price. 

0.35% × $8.40 = 2.94 

What we recently received (2.94), is the amount of money that we are saving from the sale. The original price of the novel was $8.40, and with the 35% off, we are saving $2.94 on it. 

Our last step is to subtract the original price and the sale. 

$8.40 - $2.94 = $5.46

Now - we know that our new cost just for the novel is $5.46.

------

Moving on to the bookmark which costs $1.20, we can start by taking our percentage from last time (0.35) and instantly start multiplying just like we did on the novel.

0.35% × $1.20 = $0.42

So, with the 35% discount, you are saving $0.42 on the bookmark. Let's subtract and find the total amount Edward is having to pay now.

$1.20 - $0.42 = $0.78

He will purchase the bookmark for only $0.78.

-----------

Our final step is to add both the novel and bookmark up to find the total price overall.

$5.46 + $0.78 = $6.24

Edward will have to pay $6.24 for both the novel and bookmark.
$8.40*0.65(the new price 65% of the original price that Edward needs to pay)=$5.46 $1.20*0.65=$0.78 5.46+0.78=$6.24
