Dymin had a lot of boxes ready for moving. She went out and
bought seven more boxes. A week later her little brother
destroyed half of them. There are now only 22 boxes left.
How many did she start with?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

37 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

At first, Dymin had some boxes. Let x be the starting number of boxes.

Then, she bought 7 more boxes. Let y be the new number of boxes that she had.

y = x + 7

Next, her little brother destroyed half of them. It means half of y. So, the number of boxes left is

Number of boxes = y/2

The number of the boxes left is 22 boxes. Then, we can use the equation above.

Number of boxes = 22

y/2 = 22

Substitute y = x + 7 into the equation.

(x + 7)/2 = 22

x + 7 = 44

x = 44 - 7

x = 37

Thus, Dymin has 37 boxes at first.

Which model represents a fraction greater than Three-fifths? A circle divided into 5 equal parts. One part is shaded. A circle divided into 10 equal parts. 5 parts are shaded. A circle divided into 6 equal parts. 2 parts are shaded. A circle divided into 10 equal parts. 8 parts are shaded.

Answers

Answer: A circle divided into 10 equal parts with 8 parts shaded

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, there are a lot of words here so lets write them down as fractions so its easier to compare.

A circle divided into 5 parts with 1 part shaded = 1/5

A circle divided into 10 parts with 5 parts shaded = 5/10

A circle divided into 6 parts with 2 parts shaded = 1/3

A circle divided into 10 parts with 8 parts shaded = 8/10

Okay so looking at this we can see that they don't have a common denominator so lets fix that

1/5 = 6/30

5/10 = 15/30

1/3 = 10/30

8/10 = 24/30

3/5 = 18/30

Now lets find which one is greater than 3/5

Only the 24/30 one is greater, and looking back that is the circle divided into 10 parts with 8 of them shaded.

7. Diana took 2 hours to cycle from town X to town Y. Her average speed was 10 kilometers per
hour.
a) Find the distance between the two towns. (2 marks)
b) If her average speed was increased by 2 kilometers per hour, how much time would she take
for the journey? (2 marks)

Answers

Answer:

a.) 20 kilometers

b.)1.67 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) formula= speed =distance/time

Speed= 10km/hr

Distance=unknown

Time=2hrs

Therefore from formula, distance=speed x time

10 x 2

20 kilometers

b.) If average speed is increased by 2km/hr then

total speed= 2+10=12km/hr

Distance remains constant therefore distance= 20km

Therefore time =distance/speed

20/12

= 1.67 hours

The numbers 1, 2, ... ,10 are to be entered into the 10 boxes shown below, so that each number is used exactly once: P = (\square + \square + \square + \square + \square)(\square + \square + \square + \square + \square). What is the maximum value of P? What is the minimum value of P?

Answers

Answer:

Maximum: 756

Minimum: 600

Step-by-step explanation:

A square is the shape that has the maximum area out of all possible rectangles of a given perimeter. This means that to create the maximum value of P, you will want the two parentheses to be as close in value as possible, and to create the minimum value, for them to have the biggest difference. 1+2+3...+10=55, which is not even, but can be divided as closely as possible into 27 and 28, which have a product of 756. This can be done in this problem in several ways, one of which is:

(1+3+5+8+10)(2+4+6+7+9)

For the minimum, the largest difference can be made when one term is full of the smallest numbers, and the other is full of the largest, or:

(1+2+3+4+5)(6+7+8+9+10)=600

Hope this helps!

1) A camera costs £180 in a 10% sale. What was the pre-sale price

Answers

Answer:

£200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of the camera be x.

The 10% discounted price of the camera is £180. This means that 10% of x was deducted from x to give £180:

x - (10/100 * x) = 180

x - 0.1x = 180

0.9x = 180

x = 180 / 0.9 = £200

The pre-sale price was £200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable data is any kind of information gathered that can be made into a chart or graph representing what was collected. In other words, the data collected must vary.

The first, second, and third answers cannot be made into a chart/graph as it would be a singular number, and not provide varying data (which is required to produce a graph/chart).

The last answer would be correct as one can create a chart as the data collected from that question would vary. For example, five family members could be born in July, six in August, and ten in October. The variable that is "varying" would be these months.

In △XYZ, m∠X = 27° and m∠Y = 48°. Which gives the sides of the triangle in order from shortest to longest?

Answers

Answer:

z, y and x

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, to answer this question, what we must know is that the side facing the largest angle is the largest while the side facing the smallest is the smallest.

What i’m saying in essence is that the bigger the angle faced, the larger the side.

Now since we have 3 angles in a triangle that adds up to 180

we have 27 and 48 already, the third side would be 180-27-48 = 105

So which side faces which angle?

Let’s have a diagrammatic representation of the said triangle.

Check this in the attachment please

The longest side is thus z, followed by y and lastly x

The measure of the angle from shortest to longest will be ∠z, ∠y, and ∠x.

What is angle measurement?

An angle measure is the measurement of the angle created by two rays or arms at a shared vertex in geometry. A protractor is used to measure angles in degrees (°).

Given data;

m∠X = 27°

m∠Y = 48°

The sum of the angle of the triangle is 180°

m∠X+m∠Y+m∠Z = 180°

27° +48° + m∠Z  =  180°

m∠Z = 105°

The order of the angle measurement;

m∠Z > m∠Y > m∠X

Hence, the measure of the angle from shortest to longest will be ∠z, ∠y, and ∠x.
