He has to add half of a foot to get 2 and a half feet for the banner
Since all three equations are equal, you take 15 x 20, which =300, once again because all of the equations are equal, take 300 and divide it by 5, that will give you your first question mark.{you should have gotten 60.} To find the second one, you are going to apply the same concept, Take 300 and divide it by 6, giving you your second question mark. {you should have gotten 50}...
P.S.: {hope I helped} :)
Number of hours worked: 8
earning per hour = $9
tax = 16%
First, multiply the number of hours by the earnings per hour:
8 x 9 = $72 (total earnings)
Now, find the tax amount by multiplying the total earnings by the tax percentage in decimal form (divided by 100)
72 x (16/100)= 72 x 0.16 = $11.52
Finally, subtract the tax amount to the total earnings:
Money left: 72-11.52 = $ 60.48
Answer:
37 1/2 yards
Explanation:
3/4 as a decimal is .75 so if you multiply 50 by .75 you'll end up with the answer of 37 1/2 yards.
for these you need to rearrange the equations and do substitutions.
#3 = if x+y=5 then you know x = 5-y
now substitute that equation for x in the 2nd one so x + 2y = 8 becomes
5-y + 2y = 8 2y - y becomes 1y which becomes y then subtract 5 from each side to get y =3
now replace y with 3 in the first equation x = 5-3 so x = 2
so (2,3) is the answer
same type of work for #4
2x-y=6 ,S0 y = 2X+6
so now you have 4x+2(2x+6)=-4
that becomes 4x +4x+12 = -4
8x+8 = 1, x =1
y = 2(1)-6 = -4
so answer is (1,-4)
