Amelia collected 54 pieces of candy during Halloween. Of those 54 pieces, five-ninths had chocolate in them. Two-thirds of the ones that didn't have chocolate were gum. How many pieces of the 54 were gum? Show how you found your answer.





plz help me ​

Answers

Answer 1

[tex]\frac{5}{9}[/tex] of 54 are the ones which have chocolate , so we need to multiply the fraction by 54

[tex]\frac{5}{9} *54 =30[/tex]

Since 30 pieces of candy have chocolate, then 24 don't have it. [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of the last number are the ones which have gum, multiply [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] by 24 to get the answer:

[tex]\frac{2}{3} *24=16[/tex]

The answer is : 16 pieces of candy have gum

PLEASE MARK ME AS BRAINLIEST

Answer 2

The number of pieces of gums are 16.

What is the fraction?

In Mathematics, fractions are represented as a numerical value, which defines a part of a whole. A fraction can be a portion or section of any quantity out of a whole, where the whole can be any number, a specific value, or a thing.

Given that, Amelia collected 54 pieces of candy during Halloween.

Of those 54 pieces, five-ninths had chocolate in them.

Number of chocolates = 5/9 ×54

= 30

Remaining candies =54-30

= 24

Two-thirds of the ones that didn't have chocolate were gum.

Now, 2/3 ×24

= 16

Therefore, the number of pieces of gums are 16.

MATH HELP!!!! I HAVE POSTED THIS QUESTION AND NO ONE ANSWERS! 15 POINTS!!!

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the answer take into mind what the question is asking for.

The equation has to pass the point (12,3) and has to be parallel to y=(4/3)x+5.

since the equations have to be parallel you can take out D since it has the reciprocal of the slope of the original equation.

You could also take out the negative equation C since the original one is not negative.

then you would have to graph the equations and would find that A is the answer because in order to have a point (12,3) you need to either start from the negative y-axis and ascend or from the positive axis and descend but B doesn't go down it goes up since it has a positive y value and has a positive slope. So in conclusion the answer would be A.

The perimeter of a triangle is 65 meters. The second side is 5 meters less than the first side.The third side is 7 meters more than the first side. What is the length of each side?

Answers

Answer:

The length of each side of triangle is:

First side of triangle = 21 inches

Second side of triangle = 16 inches

Third side of triangle = 28 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of triangle = 65 meters

Let

First side of triangle = x

Second side of triangle = x-5 (The second side is 5 meters less than the first side.)

Third side of triangle = x+7  (The third side is 7 meters more than the first side.)

We need to find length of each side.

The formula used is:

[tex]\mathbf{Perimeter\:of\:triangle=Sum\:of\:all\:sides\:of\:triangle}[/tex]

Putting values and finding value of x

[tex]Perimeter\:of\:triangle=Sum\:of\:all\:sides\:of\:triangle\\65=x+x-5+x+7\\65=3x+2\\Switching\:sides\\3x+2=65\\Subtracting\:2\:from\:both\:sides\\3x+2-2=65-2\\3x=65-2\\3x=63\\Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:x\\\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{63}{3}\\x=21[/tex]

So, We get value of x = 21

Now, finding the length of each side of triangle:

First side of triangle = x = 21

Second side of triangle = x-5 =21-5 =16

Third side of triangle = x+7 = 21+ 7 = 28

The length of each side of triangle is:

First side of triangle = 21 inches

Second side of triangle = 16 inches

Third side of triangle = 28 inches

Holly has $225 to spend at the shopping mall. She decides to buy sweaaters and pants with her money. Sweaters cost $45 each and pants cost $25 each. The equation 45s + 25p = 225 represents this situation.

If Holly buys 3 sweaters, what is the greatest number of pants she can buy?

Answers

Answer:

3 pairs of pants

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug 3 in for s. Your equation should now be 45(3) +25p=225

Then distribute 135+25p=225

Subtract 25p=90

Divide p=3.6

Since you cannot buy half of a pair of pants you need to round down to three

Use the order of operations to evaluate: −7.6 − 2[9 + (−6.8)] First, simplify the parentheses: [9 + (−6.8)] = 2.2. Now the expression is: −7.6 − 2(2.2). Since there are no exponents in this problem, the next step is ✔ (- 2)2.2 . Simplify the previous step and you get ✔ -7.6 – 4.4 . The final answer is

Answers

Answer:

-12.0

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we are given:

−7.6 − 2[9 + (−6.8)]

We apple the PEDMAS rule

P = Parentheses, Hence:

Step 1

The first step is to simplify the parentheses

[9 + (−6.8)] = 2.2.

Step 2

We now have:

−7.6 − 2(2.2).

Step 3

We simplify Parentheses again

(- 2)2.2 = -4.4

Step 4

We simplify

-7.6 - 4.4

= -12.0

The final answer is 12.0

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point(2,−5) and is parallel to the line 6x+y=66x+y=6?

Answers

Answer:

An equation of the line that passes through the point(2,−5) and is parallel to the line 6x+y=6 is:

[tex]y=-6x+7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Given the equation

[tex]6x+y=6[/tex]

Writing in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

[tex]y = -6x + 6[/tex]

comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

Thus, the slope of line = m = -6

We know that the parallel lines have the same slopes.

Thus, the slope of the parallel line is also -6.

As the line passes through the point (2,−5).

Thus, using the point-slope form of the line equation

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

where m is the slope and (x₁, x₂) is the point

substituting the values m = -6 and the point (2,−5)

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

[tex]y - (-5) = -6 (x - 2)[/tex]

[tex]y+5=-6\left(x-2\right)[/tex]

subtract 5 from both sides

[tex]y+5-5=-6\left(x-2\right)-5[/tex]

[tex]y=-6x+7[/tex]

Therefore, an equation of the line that passes through the point(2,−5) and is parallel to the line 6x+y=6 is:

[tex]y=-6x+7[/tex]

The temperature on Mars may reach a high of 70 degrees Fahrenheit at the equator in the summer. It may reach a low of -225 degrees Fahrenheit at the poles. Which expression gives the difference between those temperatures?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are informed that the temperature on Mars may reach a high of 70 degrees Fahrenheit at the equator in the summer and may also reach a low of -225 degrees Fahrenheit at the poles.

The expression that gives the difference between those temperatures would then be calculated as:

= 70°F - (-225°F)

= 70°F + 225°F

= 295°F

Carlton has a job offer for a position as a telemarketer. The job pays $60 per week, plus a
$15 commission for each sale he makes. How many sales would Carlton have to make in
a week in order to earn $240?

Answers

Answer:

He would have to make 12 sales a week in order to make $240

Step-by-step explanation:

So every week the job pays him $60

And $15 more every sell he makes So 15x12=180

So if he  makes 12 sells in a week he will make $180 dollars.

Plus the 60 the job pays him every week

So 180+60=$240
