The Cowboys High School Band Boosters are selling candy bars and chips at the basketball tournament to raise money for their band competition. The candy bars sell for $1.00 and the chips sell for $0.50. They have 575 items ready to sell and expect to make $500 on the sale of all the items. How many candy bars do they have ready to sell?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

They have 425 candy bars ready to sell.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the number of candy bars ready to sell

y be the number of chips ready to sell

According to given statement;

x+y=575     Eqn 1

x+0.5y= 500     Eqn 2

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 1

(x+y)-(x+0.5y)=575-500

x+y-x-0.5y=75

0.5y = 75

Dividing both sides by 0.5

[tex]\frac{0.5y}{0.5}=\frac{75}{0.5}\\y=150[/tex]

Putting y=150 in Eqn 1

x+150 = 575

x = 575-150

x = 425

Hence,

They have 425 candy bars ready to sell.

Work out the total area of the regions shaded in the diagram.
Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

Area of the shaded portion = 54.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve first for the area of the circle:

[tex]area \: of \: circle = \pi {r}^{2} \\ = \pi( \frac{d}{2} )^{2} \\ = \pi( \frac{10}{2} )^{2} \\ = 25\pi \: or \: 78.5398 {cm}^{2} [/tex]

Then, compute for the area of the triangle:

[tex]area \: of \: triangle = \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height \\ = \frac{1}{2} ( {8})(6) \\ = 24 {cm}^{2} [/tex]

Since we only needed the shaded portion, we have to subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the circle

[tex]25\pi {cm}^{2} - 24 {cm}^{2} = 54.5398 {cm}^{2} [/tex]

Answers

Complete question :

Miranda is braiding her hair then she will attach beads to the braids she wants 1/3 of the beads to be red if the greatest number of beads that will fit on the braid is 12 what other fraction could represent the part of the beads that are red?

Answer:

2 / 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of red beads on braid = 1/3

greatest number of braids = 12

Fraction of red beads = (1 /3) * 12 = 4 red beads

Thus implies that :

When greatest number of braids = 12

fraction of red beads) = (Number of red beads / greatest number of beads)

Fraction = 4 / 12

Divide by 2 = 2/6 (don't reduce to lowest term).
