8/9, 7/8

For the denominators (9, 8) the least common multiple (LCM) is 72.

LCM(9, 8)

Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) is 72.

Rewriting the original inputs as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

Keshon gets a loan for $4,000 to buy a car. It will take him 3 years to pay off the loan He will be charged 6.5% simple interest

Hitman42 [59]

We can use the interest formula:

Let i = interest.

Let p = principal

Let r = interest rate

Let t = time.

I = p × r × t. Plug in our numbers

6.5% = 0.065

I = $4,000 × 0.065 × 3 = $780.

He will pay $780 in interest after 3 years.

ANSWER

EXPLANATION

We want to find the distance between the points (3, -5) and (-6, -5).

The given points have the same y-coordinates .

This means it is a horizontal line.

We use the absolute value method to find the distance between the two points.

We find the absolute value of the distance between the x-values.

The distance between the two points is

At Greenwood Landscaping, rock costs $47.50 per ton. How much would 2.5 tons cost?

Grace [21]

Answer:

Hey!

Your answer is $118.75!

Step-by-step explanation: How did I get this?

STEP 1: So we know that for a ton of rock costs us $47.50...

To get 2 tons all we have to do is to MULTIPLY $47.50 by 2...

(47.50 x 2 = 95)

STEP 2: So for $95, you will get 2 tons of rock!

Now to get the .5 tons of rock in price form, we have to get the price of the whole 2.5 tons and DIVIDE BY 2

(47.50 ÷ 2 = 23.75)

STEP 3: So now we have the costs for 2 tons and the price for HALF a ton.

What we do now is easy...we ADD THE VALUES TOGTHER!

(95 + 23.75 = $118.75)

The result of $118.75 after adding them together is the PRICE OF 2 TONS!

I HOPE THIS HELPED YOU!
