The orchard just sold 72 apples, which is 12% of the total number of apples they put up for sale. How many apples did they put up for sale?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

600 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

12%= 72

1%=6

100%=600

Answer 2

The orchard sold 72 apples, which represents 12% of the total number of apples they put up for sale. The total number of apples they put up for sale is 600.

Use the concept of percentage defined as:

A figure or ratio that may be stated as a fraction of 100 is a percentage. If we need to calculate a percentage of a number, we should divide it by its entirety and then multiply it by 100. The proportion, therefore, refers to a component per hundred. Per 100 is what the word percent means.

Given that,

The orchard sold 72 apples.

The 72 apples represent 12% of the total number of apples they put up for sale.

To find out the total number of apples the orchard put up for sale,

use a simple equation.

Let's denote the total number of apples as "x".

According to the given information,

72 apples represent 12% of the total number of apples.

Set up the equation as follows:

12% of x = 72

To solve for x, convert the percentage to a decimal.

12% is equivalent to 0.12.

0.12 x = 72

Now, solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 0.12:

x = 72 / 0.12

x = 600

Hence,

The total number of apples they put up for sale is 600.

A flag has a perimeter of 5 metres. The length of the flag is 600 mm more than the
width of the flag. The length is represented by L and the width is represented by W.
Which of the linear systems in the choices represents the description?
O2L + 2W = 5
L - 600 = W
O2L + 2W = 5000
L - 600 = W
OL+W = 5000
W + 600 = L
O L x W = 5000
L + 600 = W

Answers

Answer:

The first two.

Step-by-step explanation:

See that L is 600mm MORE than W.

From there, you can note that L = W+600  

or rearrange the formula and get W= L-600

Then, see that the perimeter of a flag is 2L + 2W

(Because there are two four sides to a rectangle, 2 width, 2 length)

It must total to be 5 meters, or 5000mm

Thus,

2L + 2W = 5000

Butter kruse made 522 glaze donuts and 323 chocolate covered donuts. They put the donuts in boxes. Each box holds 12 donuts. How many boxes do they need?

Answers

Answer:

71 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add 522 (# of glaze donuts) and 323(# of chocolate covered donuts).....845(# of total donuts)

2. Divide 845 by 12(the # of donuts each box could hold)....70.41666(repeating)

3. As you can't have a 0.41666 of a box, you round up 70.4166666 to 71.

71*12=852 70*12=840

Even though 71 boxes is more than enough to hold 845 donuts, there is simply no other choice, as there is no smaller box that holds less than 12 donuts.

What is the surface area of the cube, in square inches?

Answers

Answer:

The surface area of the cube is 648.96 sq in.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is made a lot easier by the fact that it's a cube.

So we first calculate the area of one of the faces. The length of the side of the side is 10.4 inches, and 10.4 * 10.4 = 100.16.

There are six faces, so we multiply the area of 1 face by 6. 100.16 * 6 = 648.96.

Therefore, the surface area of the cube is 648.96 sq inches.

Ariana is a songwriter who collects royalties on her songs whenever they are played in a commercial or a movie. Ariana will earn $40 every time one of her songs is played in a commercial and she will earn $110 every time one of her songs is played in a movie. Ariana earned a total of $500 in royalties on 9 commercials and movies. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of commercials and the number of movies on which Ariana's songs were played. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answers

Answer:

Commercials x = 7

Movies y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let commercials = x

Let's movies = y

$40 is for commercials

$110 is for movies.

Commercials plus movies for the Year = 9

She earned total of $500

X+ y = 9..... equation 1

40x + 110y = 500.... Equation 2

Multipling equation one by 40

40x + 40y = 360

Subtracting equation one from equation 2

70y = 140

Y = 2

If y = 2

X + y = 9

X + 2 = 9

X = 9-2

X = 7

The Oxy coordinate plane for two parallel lines a and a' has the equations 2x - 3y-1 = 0 and 2x - 3y + 5 = 0. respectively. Which vector translation to convert a to a'

Answers

Answer:

Remember that a vector translation can be written as:

T(a, b)

And if we apply this to a random point, (x, y), the translation gives:

T(a, b)(x, y) = (x + a, y + b)

now, remember that a general line can be written as:

y = m*x + s

Then a point of that line can be written as: (x, m*x + s)

Then if we apply the translation to a point in the line, we get:

T(a, b)(x, m*x + s) = (x + a, m*x + s + b)

Here we have two lines:

2x - 3y - 1 = 0

2x - 3y + 5 = 0

First, let's rewrite both of these in the slope-intercept form:

y = (2/3)*x - 1/3

y = (2/3)*x + 5/3

Now let's assume that we apply a translation to the first line, that has points of the form (x,  (2/3)*x - 1/3), such that we want to get points of the form:

(x, (2/3)*x + 5/3).

Then we must have:

T(a, b)(x,  (2/3)*x - 1/3) = (x + a,  (2/3)*x - 1/3 + b) = (x, (2/3)*x + 5/3).

Then we need to solve:

(x + a,  (2/3)*x - 1/3 + b) = (x, (2/3)*x + 5/3).

This means that:

x + a = x

(2/3)*x - 1/3 + b = (2/3)*x + 5/3

From the first equation, we can see that a = 0

Now we can solve the second one to find the value of b.

(2/3)*x - 1/3 + b = (2/3)*x + 5/3

subtracting (2/3)*x in both sides, we get:

-1/3 + b = 5/3

b = 5/3 + 1/3

b = 6/3 = 2

b = 2

Then the vector translation is:

T(0, 2)

So it moves the whole line 2 units upwards.

Translate the following phrase into an algebraic expression. use the variable n to represent the number. 4 less than triple a number

Answers

Answer:  3n - 4

Work Shown:

n = a number, aka a placeholder for a number

3n = triple a number

3n-4 = four less than triple a number

So whatever n is, we multiply by 3 and then subtract off 4.

As an example, if n = 12, then 3n-4 = 3*12-4 = 36-4 = 32.
