3/3 is basically 1
6/12 is simplified down to 1/2
1 x 1/2 = 1/2
ANSWER - 1/2
Answer:
a=-13
Step-by-step explanation:
16−5a+2a−1=41−a
16-1-41 = 5a-2a-a
-26 = 2a
a= -26/2
a=-13
X-20 = Y+20........ X-Y = 20+20........
X-Y = 40
AND
2Y-44=X+22............. Y-X= 44+22
Y-X=66
NOW, LET'S FIND X AND Y FROM THESE TWO EQUATIONS....
X-Y =40
Y-X= 66
IF WE COLLECT ....... 2Y = 106 AND Y = 53
THEN, USE Y IN ANY EQUATIONS FOR FINDING X
X-53 = 40 ..... X= 53+40 .......... X= 93
X= 93
Y=53
Let unit cost of one rake be : r
Given : Total number of volunteers = 12
Given : Each pair of gloves cost $8.00
⇒ Cost of 12 pair of gloves for 12 volunteers = (12 × 8) = $96
Given : The gardener spends a total of $300 on both rakes and gloves
⇒ Cost of 12 rakes + Cost of 12 pair of gloves = $300
⇒ 12r + 96 = 300
⇒ 12r = 204
⇒ r = 17
<u>Answer</u> : Cost of one rake is $17
A quarter, two dimes, and two pennies.
