3) Solve these problems that have more than one answer.
A) Mary read 3 times the amount of books as Carey over the summer. Carey read twice as
many books as Barry. If the students read 405 books combined, how many more books did
Mary read than Barry?
----


Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

225

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary = 3x (3 times Carey)

Carey = x

Barry = x/2 (Because Carey read twice as many as Barry, it means he read half the amount Carey did)

3x + x + x/2 = 405

4x + x/2 = 405

8x/2 + x/2 (treat these as fractions) = 405

9x/2 = 405

9x = 810 (cross multiply)

x = 90

Mary = 3(90)      270

Carey =              90

Barry = 90/2      45

Mary - Barry

270 - 45 = 225

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2
the answer should be 225

I WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST! Find the area and perimeter of the following figures

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

it is really not complicated. we only need to type the numbers into the calculator.

so, what's the problem ? you don't know what a perimeter is ? it is the circumference, the total way you have to go when waking all around the figure.

you don't know the formulas for the areas of specific figures ?

let's start :

a)

the area of a rectangle is length×width. I hope you know this at least since first grade.

the important thing here is : the result is in² and not just in. it means an area counts the little squares that fill that area.

A = 30×8 = 240 in²

the perimeter, as explained, is the whole way around it. so, in the end, as you can easily see, we would have to go 2 times the long side and 2 times the short side.

the result is in (just a length, a distance not an area, not a cube, ...).

P = 2×30 + 2×8 = 60 + 16 = 76 in

b)

the area of a triangle is

baseline × height / 2

in this case (a right-angled triangle) we can assume one of the sides enclosing the 90 degree angle as baseline and the other as height (since there is already a 90 degree angle between them).

and again, the result is ft². we could express it also e.g. as in², but since the basic measures are in ft, it makes it better understandable to use ft².

A = 12×5/2 = 6×5 = 30 ft²

the perimeter is even easier than for the rectangle, as we have one side less to count.

and as before, we stay with ft.

P = 12 + 13 + 5 = 30 ft

c)

this is the only more special case.

but it is still easy.

the area is baseline × height.

and our unit of measurement here is cm, so the result will be cm².

A = 10×2 = 20 cm²

the perimeter is the same principle as with a regular rectangle, as the angles don't matter. only the side lengths matter.

so, again, while waking around it, we have to pass 2 times the long side and 2 times the short side.

and the result is a length, a distance again, so, it is cm.

P = 2×10 + 2×4 = 20 + 8 = 28 cm

1. A= 240 inches squared P= 76 inches
2. A= 30 feet squared. P=30 feet
3. A= 20 cm squared P= 28 cm

How far was Zane from the edge of the volcano when he started climbing?

Answers

Answer:

Hope this helps

accoding to the web "He started out 25 meters below the edge of the volcano. It takes him 6.25 seconds to reach the edge."

Answer:

25 meters below the edge; 6.25 seconds  

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent this with a linear function in slope-intercept form.  

We know the rate of change is 4 since he climbs up at 4 meters per second.  We do not know the value of b, the y-intercept.  

This gives us  

y = 4x + b  

We know that he is 13 meters below the edge after 3 seconds.  Using -13 for y and 3 for x,  

-13 = 4(3) + b  

-13 = 12 + b  

Subtract 12 from each side:  

-13-12 = 12+b-12  

-25 = b  

This gives us the equation  

y = 4x - 25  

He started out 25 meters below the edge of the volcano.  

To find how long it took him to reach the edge, substitute 0 in for y:  

0 = 4x - 25  

Add 25 to each side:  

0+25 = 4x-25+25  

25 = 4x  

Divide both sides by 4:  

25/4 = 4x/4  

6.25 = x  

It takes him 6.25 seconds to reach the edge.
