From the given statement, we know the following...
0.35x = $247 where x = the orginial number
So if we solve for x by dividing by 0.35
x = $247/0.35 = $705.71
Answer:
The answer to your question is: first piece = 4 in, second piece = 8 in, third piece = 12 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
total length = 24 inches
first piece = x in
second piece = 2x
third piece = 3x
Equation
x + 2x + 3x = 24
6x = 24
x = 24/6
x = 4 length of the first piece
second piece = 2(4) = 8 inches
third piece = 3(4) = 12 inches
Answer:
7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
56/8=7
C. Both options A and B will allow him to meet his goal.
Looking at Drake's situation after 4 weeks, he only has $470 saved. By
his original plan, he should have had $500 saved. So he's $30 short of
his goal and has 2 weeks until his originally planned class. If he goes
with option A and takes the later class, he will save an additional $125
which is more than enough to make up the $30 short fall. So option A
will work for him to save enough money for his class. With option B, he
will save $140 for the last 2 weeks of his plan giving him a savings of
$280 for the last 2 weeks. Adding the $470 he's already saved will give
him a total savings of $470 + $280 = $750 which is enough for him to
attend his class. So option B will also allow Drake to attend his
desired class. Both options A and B allow him to meet his goal. Hence,
the answer is "c".
I think you do 120 divided by 5, but I could be wrong.
