2.8 = 2 + 0.8
*let's analyze the decimal 0.8 as a fraction
0.8 = 8/10
*but if we divide the numerator and denominator by the same common factor of 2, we find that the fraction can be reduced to:
(8/2)/(10/2) = (4)/(5) = 4/5
*now evaluating the whole value of 2 (from the 2.8), we know there are a total of (5) - fifths in order to make a whole, so for 2 whole, we require:
2*(5/5) = (2*5)/5 = 10/5
*Now we add the fractions together:
2 = 10/5
0.8 = 4/5
10/5 + 4/5
*add numerators only, the denominator stays as a 5
(10 + 4)/5 = 14/5
*there are no common factors between 14 & 5 (other than 1, but that won't help reduce the fraction any), so the fraction is in it's simplest form:
answer is: 14/5

This is a problem that looks harder then it seems, First determine the cost of each item he is trying to buy. Then figure out the number of dollars he has to spend. Once you have figured that out you divide the cost into how much he has.
For example.
John has 10 dollars. He wants to buy pencils. Each pencil will cost john 2 Dollars. How many can he buy?
By dividing the cost of the pencils = 2 into the number of dollars he has 10 Divided by 2, we get 5.
Now it's your turn. Divide the number he has to spend by the price of the items. This will get you your answer!
Hope this helped!

Answer:
5+ 4x > 7, x > 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1) 6^2 + 8^2 = x^2
36 + 64 = x^2
100 = x^2
x = 10 feet
2) 15^2 + 8^2 = x^2
225 + 64 = x^2
x ^ 2 = 289
