Answer:

girls = 90

boys = 125

adults = 20

Detailed explanation:

Total attendees at the summer camp = 235

Let

girls = x

boys = x + 35

adults = x - 70

Total attendees = girls + boys + adults

235 = x + (x + 35) + (x - 70)

235 = x + x + 35 + x - 70

235 = 3x - 35

Add 35 to each side

235 + 35 = 3x

270 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

x = 270/3

= 90

x = 90

girls = x = 90

boys = x + 35

= 90 + 35

= 125

adults = x - 70

= 90 - 70

= 20

Total = 90 + 125 + 20

= 235

Use this information to find the value of b.<br><br><br>c = 25<br><br>s = 9<br><br><br>b = 4c - s2
PIT_PIT [3949]
Greetings!

Let's rewrite the equation:
b = 4c - s².
Plug in your values:
b = 4(25) - (9)²
Now simplify:
4 times 25 equals 100
9 squared equals 81
So, b = 100 - 81
Calculate:
100 minus 81 equals 19
b is 19.

I hope this helps!

Turkey sandwiches cost $2.50 and veggie wraps cost $3.50 at a snack stand. Ben has sold no more than $30 worth of turkey sandwic
tester [3938]

Answer:

Ben could have sold a maximum of 6 turkey sandwiches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Turkey sandwiches are priced at $2.50, while veggie wraps cost $3.50 at the snack stand.

Our goal is to determine the largest number of turkey sandwiches Ben might have sold.

2. 5 0 x + 3. 5 0 y \leq 3 0

4 veggie wraps were sold (y).

Thus, the inequality is: 2.50x + 3.50(4) < 30

2.50x + 14 < 30

- 14 - 14

2.50x < 16

x

x

Ultimately, Ben could sell a maximum of 6 turkey sandwiches.

Zina [3917]

1. Calculate 10% of 250 (250 × 0.10 = 25)
2. Subtract that from 250 (250 - 25 = 225)
3. Then find 16% of 225 (225 × 0.16 = 36)
4. Add 225 and 36 to get 261
5. Therefore, the target number of consumers retained is 261

Rhonda sold five appliances this week. She sold a stove for $800.00, a refrigerator for $1,250.00, a microwave for $120.00, a di
lawyer [4039]

The expression for calculating a percentage is whatever% of anything is simply (whatever/100) * anything.


The total 800 + 1250 + 120 + 625 + 65 equals 2860.

Rhonda does not earn a commission on the first 2000, only on the excess amount, which is 860.

Calculating 15% of 860 involves (15/100) * 860.

The owners of Expo Company John Smith and Susan Jones invested $240,000 and $160,000 into the business respectively. What percen
tester [3938]

Answer:

40%

Detailed solution:

John Smith and Susan Jones have contributed $240,000 and $160,000 respectively toward Expo Company. We are tasked with determining the proportion of the business owned by Susan.

First, calculate the total investment by summing both contributions.

\text{Total money invested in business}=\$240,000+\$160,000

\text{Total money invested in business}=\$400,000

Next, find what percentage $160,000 is of the total $400,000.

\text{Percentage of business Susan own}=\frac{160,000}{400,000}\times 100

\text{Percentage of business Susan own}=0.4\times 100

\text{Percentage of business Susan own}=40

Thus, Susan's share in the company is 40%.
