Company A: 120 + 0.50x
Company B: 60 + 0.60x
Company A = Company B (solve for x)
(Here, x = miles)
120 + 0.50x = 60 + 0.60x
120 - 60 = 0.60x - 0.50x
60 = 0.10x
600 = x
1. <span>-0.9x+2.8=4.1
First subtract 2.8 from both sides.
-0.9x = 1.3
Now divide both sides by -0.9.
x = -1.4444..
This can be rounded to -1.44
</span><span>c) -1.44
2. Jordan has 650 pennies. He'll give 85 to his brother and split the rest with his sister.
</span>d) 85+2x=650
<h3>5:16</h3>
The ratio is supposed to be pennies to total amount of coins. The total amount of coins--including pennies--is 16. This can be proven by this equation:
5 + 6 + 5 = 16
Now you put the ratio together by taking the amount of pennies (5) and total amount of coins (16). Your ratio should look like this:
5:16

i just did that earler lol
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Ayesha's right. There's a good trick for knowing if a number is a multiple of nine called "casting out nines." We just add up the digits, then add up the digits of the sum, and so on. If the result is nine the original number is a multiple of nine. We can stop early if we recognize if a number along the way is or isn't a multiple of nine. The same trick works with multiples of three; we have one if we end with 3, 6 or 9.
So </span>

<span>has a sum of digits 31 whose sum of digits is 4, so this isn't a multiple of nine. It will give a remainder of 4 when divided by 9; let's check.
</span>

<span>
</span>Let's focus on remainders when we divide by nine. The digit summing works because 1 and 10 have the same remainder when divided by nine, namely 1. So we see multiplying by 10 doesn't change the remainder. So

has the same remainder as

.
When Ayesha reverses the digits she doesn't change the sum of the digits, so she doesn't change the remainder. Since the two numbers have the same remainder, when we subtract them we'll get a number whose remainder is the difference, namely zero. That's why her method works.
<span>
It doesn't matter if the digits are larger or smaller or how many there are. We might want the first number bigger than the second so we get a positive difference, but even that doesn't matter; a negative difference will still be a multiple of nine. Let's pick a random number, reverse its digits, subtract, and check it's a multiple of nine:
