A school librarian has enough money to order 8 paperback books at $155 each. If the librarian decided instead to
order books with hard covers at $188 each, how many books can the librarian buy?

Answers

Answer 1

hi

money he has  :   155 *8  =     800 + 440  =  1240

SO  1240 / 188 ≈ 6.59

so answer  is  6  as you cannot buy half books...

Answer 2

Answer: 6 hard cover books

Step-by-step explanation:

$155 x 8 =1,240

$188 x 6 = 1,128 which is as close as you can get without going over

Answer:  [tex]-\frac{p}{8}[/tex]

This is the fraction -p/8

====================================================

Explanation:

When we divide by -16, we're really multiplying by -1/16. Fractions and division are very similar ideas.

So we can say,

[tex]2p \div -16 = 2p \times \frac{-1}{16}\\\\2p \div -16 = \frac{2p}{1} \times \frac{-1}{16}\\\\2p \div -16 = \frac{2p(-1)}{1*16}\\\\2p \div -16 = \frac{-2p}{16}\\\\2p \div -16 = \frac{-2p}{2*8}\\\\2p \div -16 = -\frac{p}{8}\\\\[/tex]

The second to last step has a pair of '2's divide and cancel out.

-------------

Another way to think of it is to consider

[tex]\frac{a}{b} \div \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a}{b} \times \frac{d}{c}[/tex]

The flip from division to multiplication has us apply the reciprocal of the second fraction. In this problem, we have a = 2p, b = 1, c = -16 and d = 1. The steps will be very similar if not identical to what is shown above.

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is equal to 2. The slope of a line is rise over run, or change in y over change in x. From one point to another on this line y increases by 2 and x increases by 1, which would be 2/1 or just 2. This slope or any other slope greater than 1 or less than -1 makes the line steeper. Another way to find slope is through the slope formula which is [tex]\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex], to use this plug in any two points and solve.

Answer:

The slope is a 2/1 slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you look at the slope and pick 2 points, let's say (1,1) and (2,3)

find the difference between the two points by y2-y1/x2-x1

The equation would be 3-1/2-1

The answer to the slope would be 2/1.

Swanton Savings Bank pays 5.5% interest compounded quarterly on a regular savings account. John deposited $4400 in regular savings accounts for 1.5 years. How much interest did he earn?

Answers

Answer:

$375.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Rate of interest = 5.5% compounded quarterly

Time = 1.5 years

Principal amount deposited in savings account = 1.5 years

To find:

Interest earned = ?

Solution:

Formula for amount with interest compounding quarterly:

[tex]A = P(1+\dfrac{r}{4\times 100})^{4t}[/tex]

Putting the values:

[tex]A = 4400(1+\dfrac{5.5}{4\times 100})^{4\times 1.5}\\\Rightarrow 4400\times 1.01375^6\\\Rightarrow 4400\times 1.085\\\Rightarrow \$ \bold{4775.71}[/tex]

Interest earned = Amount - Principal

Interest earned = 4775.70 - 4400 = $375.71

this is a topic on percentage. the above question requires a use of a kind of formula if you wish to explore more into this topic you can give me a follow on Instagram (learntionary) I've already posted some notes on this topic and will be doing more on others and also I'll be providing tips on some topics as well!

Answer:

55% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

First I want to say I recommend using sites like Calculator soup, and finding the option "percent increase calculator", for problems like these instead of wasting any points that you could use later on, and Secondly (happy to help), oof and third:

1) subtract the final value minus the starting value

279 - 180= 99

2) Divide that amount by the absolute value of the starting value

99 divided by 180 equals .55

3) Multiply by 100 to get percent increase

changes to 55.00 (final answer 55%)

4) If the percentage is negative, it means there was a decrease and not an increase.

Rectangle A measures 10 inches by 8 inches. Rectangle B is an enlarged copy of Rectangle A. Select all of the measurement pairs that could be the dimensions of Rectangle B.

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rectangle A:

[tex]Length: 10\ in[/tex]

[tex]Width: 8\ in[/tex]

Required

Determine the possible dimensions of Rectangle B

The question has missing options; however, the question can still be solved.

Rectangle B being an enlarged copy of A implies that the dimension of A A is enlarged in equal proportion to form B

Take for instance, the measurements of Rectangle B are

[tex]Length: 15 in[/tex]

[tex]Width: 12 in[/tex]

Divide the corresponding lengths of B by A to get the enlargement ratio

[tex]Ratio = \frac{B}{A}[/tex]

For length:

[tex]Ratio = \frac{15}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Ratio = 1.5[/tex]

For width

[tex]Ratio = \frac{12}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Ratio = 1.5[/tex]

Notice that both ratios are the same.

For this measurement of B, we can conclude that B is an enlargement of A

Assume another measurements for B

[tex]Length: 20\ in[/tex]

[tex]Width: 10\ in[/tex]

Calculate Ratios

[tex]Ratio = \frac{B}{A}[/tex]

For length:

[tex]Ratio = \frac{20}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Ratio = 2[/tex]

For width

[tex]Ratio = \frac{10}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Ratio = 1.25[/tex]

Notice that, both ratios are not equal.

For this measurement of B, we can conclude that B is not an enlargement of A

Conclusively, all you have to do is: determine the ratios of the dimensions of B to A, if the result are equal then B is an enlarged copy of A; if otherwise, then B is not an enlarged copy

Is this the full question, it seems like there is something missing? If not it seems to be C. A would represent 15.5 miles as a dependent variable, which would not be the total amount.
