It costs $15 to rent a bike for 3 hours. We can write the following ratio below
15 dollars : 3 hours
To represent the connection of the two concepts (dollars connecting with hours)
We want the "15 dollars" to turn into "1 dollar". This is because the phrasing "per dollar" really means "per 1 dollar".
Divide both sides of the ratio by 15 to achieve this goal.
15 dollars : 3 hours
15/15 dollars : 3/15 hours
1 dollar : 1/5 hours
1 dollar : 0.2 hours
0.2 hours : 1 dollar
So we get 0.2 hours per dollar.
As a side note, 0.2 hours = 0.2*60 = 12 minutes.

<h3>Answer: 3.38</h3>

27 pages : 8 minutes
27/8 pages : 8/8 minutes
3.375 pages : 1 minute
3.38 pages : 1 minute
I'm dividing both parts of the original ratio by 8 to turn "8 minutes" into "1 minute" (due to the phrasing "per minute"). Don't forget to round to 2 decimal places.
11.4 multiplied by 4 trucks = 45.6 tons in the trucks.
55 - 45.6 = what remains in the pile which would be 9.4 tons.
Multiply $75 by 1.1 because it includes the tax and the cake. you should get $82.50.
Answer:
x=-4 y=5
Step-by-step explanation:
3×(16-4y)+4y=8
48-12y+4y=8
-8y=-40
y=5
x=16-4×5
x=-4
