Number of weekend minutes used: x
Number of weekday minutes used: y
This month Nick was billed for 643 minutes:
(1) x+y=643
The charge for these minutes was $35.44
Telephone company charges $0.04 per minute for weekend calls (x)
and $0.08 per minute for calls made on weekdays (y)
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
We have a system of 2 equations and 2 unkowns:
(1) x+y=643
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
Using the method of substitution
Isolating x from the first equation:
(1) x+y-y=643-y
(3) x=643-y
Replacing x by 643-y in the second equation
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
0.04(643-y)+0.08y=35.44
25.72-0.04y+0.08y=35.44
0.04y+25.72=35.44
Solving for y:
0.04y+25.72-25.72=35.44-25.72
0.04y=9.72
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.04:
0.04y/0.04=9.72/0.04
y=243
Replacing y by 243 in the equation (3)
(3) x=643-y
x=643-243
x=400
Answers:
The number of weekends minutes used was 400
The number of weekdays minutes used was 243
Multiples of 8 are basically the result of counting by 8's. (Technically, multiples are a set of number which can be divided by a certain number without a remainder.)
The first 4 multiples of 8 are {

}.

N=26
2). n2+n n2+n
n3+n2+n
Answer:
Answer as a fraction: 4/15
Answer as a decimal: 0.267
The decimal version is approximate rounded to three decimal places.
Step-by-step explanation:
6 apples, 4 peaches
6+4 = 10 pieces of fruit total
The probability of picking an apple is 6/10 = 3/5
After you pick and eat the apple, there are 10-1 = 9 pieces of fruit left. Also, the probability of picking a peach is 4/9, as there are 4 peaches out of 9 fruit left over.
Multiply out 3/5 and 4/9 to get (3/5)*(4/9) = (3*4)/(5*9) = 12/45 = 4/15
Using a calculator, 4/15 = 0.267 approximately.
