Roy used 1/4 of his money on 3 pens and 6 notebooks. The cost of each pen is 3 times the cost of each notebook. He bought some more pens with 2/3 of his remaining money. How many pens did Roy buy altogether?
=========================================================
Explanation:
Roy spends 1/4 of his money on 3 pens and 6 notebooks. That means 3/4 of it is leftover.
2/3 of 3/4 = (2/3)*(3/4) = 1/2 of his money is spent on buying some unknown number of additional pens. We'll come back to this later.
---------------
In terms of cost,
1 pen = 3 notebooks
which is another way of saying 1 pen is the same price as 3 notebooks.
Multiply both sides by 2 to get
2 pens = 6 notebooks
Therefore, saying "3 pens + 6 notebooks" is the same as "3 pens + 2 pens = 5 pens" when just thinking about costs.
---------------
In short, Roy buying 3 pens and 6 notebooks is the same as him buying 5 pens. He spends 1/4 = 25% of his money on getting these 5 pens.
Multiply those two values by 2 to find that 50% = 1/2 of his money would allow him to get 10 pens.
--------------
Recall that at the end of the first section, we concluded that Roy spent 1/2 of his money on buying those unknown additional number of pens. Then the previous section mentioned that 1/2 of his money gets him 10 pens. Therefore, he must have bought 10 additional pens on top of the original 3 mentioned in the instructions.
Overall, he purchased 3+10 = 13 pens
Answer:
13 pens
Step-by-step explanation:
If a pen costs 3 times the cost of a notebook, then the cost of 3 notebooks will equal the cost of a pen. The 6 notebooks that Roy bought are equivalent in cost to 2 pens, so 1/4 of Roy's money is the cost of 3+2 = 5 pens.
After the first purchase, Roy has (1 -1/4) = 3/4 of his money remaining. If he spends 2/3 of that on more pens, he will have spent ...
(2/3)(3/4) = 2/4
of his money on more pens. We've already seen that 1/4 of his money buys 5 pens, so 2/4 will buy 10 more pens.
Roy bought 3 +10 = 13 pens altogether.

Anything below 5 can be rounded down, anything above 5 can be rounded up.
You can have a decimal after 0.96 to be less than 5, or a decimal after 0.95 to be greater than 5.

A finite geometric series is the sum of a sequence of numbers. Take the sequence
1, 2, 4, 8, ..., for example. Notice that each number is twice the value of the
previous number. So, a number in the sequence can be represented by the
function f(n) = 2^n-1. One way to write the sum of the sequence through the 5th
number in the sequence is ∑^5 n-1 2^n-1.
This equation can also be written as S5 = 2^0+2^1+ 2^2+ 2^3+ 2^4. If we multiply this equation by 2. the equation becomes 2(S5) = 2^1+ 2^2+ 2^3+ 2^4+ 2^5
What happens if you subtract the two equations and solve for S5? Can you use this information to come up with a way to find any geometric series Sn in the
form ∑^a n-1 b^n-1 ?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2S₅ - S₅ = 2⁵ - 2⁰
S₅ = 2⁵ - 1
Sₙ = (bᵃ - 1) / (b - 1)
The perimeter of a rectangular floor is 240 feet. Find the dimensions of the floor if the length is three times the width
The floor has a length of feet and a width of feet.
Answer:
length: 90 ft
width: 30 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of length and width is half the perimeter, so is 120 ft. The length is 3/(3+1) = 3/4 of the sum, so is (3/4)(120 ft) = 90 ft. The width is 120 ft -90 ft = 30 ft.
The floor has a length of 90 feet and a width of 30 feet.

c. A square that is 8 inches on a side is placed inside a rectangle that has a length of 24 inches and a width of 20 inches. What is the area of the region inside the rectangle that surrounds the square?
Area = length x width
Area of square = 8 x 8 = 64 square inches
Area of rectangle = 24 x 20 = 480 square inches
Area of rectangle surrounding the square = 480 - 64 = 416 square inches
Answer: 416 square inches

Which statements are true about the data in this table? Select all that apply.
The rate of change for the data is $12 per hour. $12 is also the constant of proportionality
If you graph the data, it would pass through the origin (0,0)
The data represent a direct variation and can be modeled by the function rule y = 12.
The data indicate a rate that is not constant
The rate of change for the data is $24 per hour. The data representa direct variation and can be modeled by the function ruley-242
The table is an illustration of a proportional relationship. and can be modeled by the function rule y = 12x
The entries of the table is given as:
Hours Earnings
4 48
6 72
10 120
20 240
Start by calculating the rate (m) of the function
[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 -x_1}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]m = \frac{72 - 48}{6-4}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{24}{2}[/tex]
[tex]m = 12[/tex]
The equation of the table is then calculated as:
[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]y = 12(x - 4) + 48[/tex]
[tex]y = 12x - 48 + 48[/tex]
[tex]y = 12x[/tex]
[tex]y = 12x[/tex] means that, the following statements are true:
