A shop sells packs of black pens, packs of red pens and packs of green pens.
There are
2 pens in each pack of black pens
5 pens in each pack of red pens
6 pens in each pack of green pens
On Monday, the ratio of number of packs of pens sold was Black : Red : Green = 7 : 3 : 4

A total of 212 pens were sold.

Work out the number of green pens sold.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of green pens sold are 96 green pens

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters for the packs of pens sold by the shop are;

The number of pens in each pack of black pens = 2 pens

The number of pens in each pack of red pens = 5 pens

The number of pens in each pack of green pens = 6 pens

The ratio of number of packs of pens sold Black : Red : Green = 7 : 3 : 4

The total number of pens sold = 212

Let 'x' represent the number of packs of pens sold

Therefore, the fraction of the packs the pens sold that are black pens = 7/(7 + 3 + 4) = 7/14 = 1/2

∴ 1/2 of the number of packs of pen sold = packs black pens = x/2

The fraction of the packs the pens sold that are red pens = 3/14

∴ 3/14 of the number of packs of pen sold = packs of red pens = 3·x/14

Similarly, we have;

The fraction of the packs the pens sold that are green pens = 4/14 = 2/7

∴ 2/7 of the number of packs of pen sold = packs of green pens = 2·x/7

Therefore, we have;

x/2 × 2 + 3·x/14 × 5 + 2·x/7 × 6 = 212

Where;

x/2 × 2 = The number of black pens sold

3·x/14 × 5 = The number of red pens sold

2·x/7 × 6 = The number of green pens sold

∴ 53·x/14 = 212

x = 212 × 14/53 = 56

∴ The number of packs of pens sold = x = 56 packs

The number of green pens sold = 2·x/7 × 6 = 2 × 56/7 × 6 = 96

The number of green pens sold = 96 pens.

Carter is going to invest $210 and leave it in an account for 5 years. Assuming the interest is compounded annually, what interest rate, to the nearest tenth of a percent, would be required in order for Carter to end up with $250?

Answers

Answer:360

Step-by-step explanation:g-g5

The rate of interest will be 0.35.

What is compound interest?

Compound interest is the interest calculated on the principal and the interest accumulated over the previous period.

Compound interest formula

[tex]CI = P(1+\frac{r}{n}) ^{nt} -P[/tex]

and, the Amount is given by

[tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]

Where,

A is amount

P is principal

r is rate of interest

n is number of times interest is compounded per year

t is time

According to the given question

Principal, P = $210

Amount, A = $250

Time, t = 5 years

n = 1

Therefore, the interest rate is given by

Amount = [tex]P(1+\frac{r}{n}) ^{nt}[/tex]

⇒[tex]250 = 210(1+\frac{r}{1}) ^{5}[/tex]

⇒[tex]\frac{250}{210} =(1+r)^{5}[/tex]

⇒[tex]1.19 = (1+r)^{5}[/tex]

⇒[tex]\sqrt[5]{1.19} = 1+r\\[/tex]

⇒ 1.035 = 1 + r

⇒ r = 1.035 - 1

⇒ r = 0.35

Hence, the interest rate is o.35.

July? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

6.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hard to explain, but easy. Take your new value, and subtract your initial (starting) value from the new value. In this case, it would be 2.95-2.75= 17. You now can take you difference (17) and divide it by the initial value, so 17/2.75. This gives you 6.181818182. Round to 6.2%

Kim spent $44 on eating utensils. Spoons cost $4 and forks cost $6. If she bought a total of 9 utensils then how many of each kind did she buy?

Answers

Answer:

3 spoons and 6 forks

Step-by-step explanation:

9 = x + y; x= 9-y

44 = 4x + 6y

44 = 4(9-y) + 6y

44 = 36 - 4y +6y

44 = 36 +2y

2y = 44-36 = 12

y = 12/2 =6

x= 9-y = 9-6 =3

Answer: she bought five spoons & four forks.

Suma totală, A după 1 an poate fi calculată astfel:

A = P (1 + rt)

Unde ; r = rata dobânzii; t = timp

A = 250 (1 + (0,17 * 1))

Answer: area mean multiply

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

76 feet (Just put 76 in the answer box)

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing the perimeter of a rectangle is 2l + 2w, multiply 2 by 3.5. Then multiply 2 by 4.5, and add them together.

2(3.5) + 2(4.5)

The two products would be 7 and 9 respectively.

7 + 9 = 16 feet of fencing for 1 rabbit pen.

We have 2 pens, so multiply 16 by 2.

The rabbit pens need 32 feet of fencing.

(Alternatively you could have done 2(2(3.5 + 4.5)).

2(2(8))

2(16)

32 ft of fencing (rabbit pens))

Now, add 12 and 10. Then multiply that by 2.

2(12 + 10)

2(22)

The garden needs 44 feet of fencing.

Now add 32 and 44 to get the total amount of fencing needed.

32 + 44

The rabbit pens and the garden need 76 feet of fencing. (Just put 76 in the answer box as the unit (feet) is already given.)
