Galvin bought 3/5 as many non-fiction books as fiction books from a book fair. He read 6 non-fiction books and 13 fiction books. He then had 3/4 as many non-fiction books left to read as fiction books. How many books did Galvin buy altogether?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let total non-fiction books = 3x

And total fiction books = 5x

After reading 6 non-fiction books, remaining non-fiction books = 3x-6

After reading 13 fiction books, total fiction books remaining fiction books = 5x-13

(3x-6)/(5x-13) = 3/4

Solving for x, we get x = 5

So total non-fiction books = 15 and fiction books=25

So total number of books bought = 40

simplify: 10 (3x-4)=30-5x​

Answers

10( 3x-4)=30-5x
30x-40 = 30 - 5x
30x +5x = 30+40
35x = 70
x = 70/35
x = 2

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

10(3x−4)=30−5x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

10(3x−4)=30−5x

(10)(3x)+(10)(−4)=30+−5x(Distribute)

30x+−40=30+−5x

30x−40=−5x+30

Step 2: Add 5x to both sides.

30x−40+5x=−5x+30+5x

35x−40=30

Step 3: Add 40 to both sides.

35x−40+40=30+40

35x=70

Step 4: Divide both sides by 35.

 35x         70

During a hone run hitting contest Joe D hit 5 more home runs then ted w, ted w hit 8 more home runs then willie M. Altogether the three baseball players hit 105 hone runs, how many home runs did Ted W hit

Answers

Answer: 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Willie number of home run he represented by x.

Since ted w hit 8 more home runs than willie M, Ted home runs = x + 8

Since Joe D hit 5 more home runs than ted w, Joe D home run will be: = x + 8 + 5 = x + 13

Since they hit 105 home runs together, this will be represented as:

x + (x+8) + (x+13) = 105

x + x + 8 + x + 13 = 105

3x + 21 = 105

3x = 105 - 21

3x = 84

x = 84/3

x = 28

Number of Ted home run will be:

= x + 8

= 28 + 8

= 36

Sean bought a laptop and a printer. He sold both items for £1,500 getting £1,300 just for the laptop. Sean made a 46% profit on the cost of the printer. What was the cost of the printer? Give your answer to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Answer: £137

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sean sold both items for £1,500 getting £1,300 just for the laptop, the slave price of the printer will be:

= £1500 - £1300

= £200

Since we are informed that Sean made a 46% profit on the cost of the printer, the cost of the printer goes thus:

= £200 /(1 + Profit percent)

= £200 / (1 + 46%)

= £200 / 1.46

= £136.99

= £137 approximately
