This is very easy to solve. You know that 5 stamps costs $2.20. To find out how much 1 stamp is you have to divide $2.20 by 5.
$2.20/5=$0.44
So now we know that 1 stamp is 44 cents.
Since you want to know how much 7 stamps cost, you have to add two more stamps to the stamps you already have.
5 stamps=$2.20+ 1 stamp= $0.44 + 1 stamp= $0.44
2.20+0.44+0.44= 3.08
So, 7 stamps costs $3.08.
Get it? Let me know if you still don't understand.

You'd do $2.20 and multiply it by seven. Which would give you $15.40, according to my calculations.

If a sprinkler waters 1 over 8 of a lawn in 1 over 4 hour, how much time will it take to water the entire lawn? (1 point)

gayaneshka [121]

It would take 2 hours. To complete the whole lawn you would need:
$\frac{8}{8}$
To make a whole, so to get that we multiply:
$8 \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{8}{8}$
So we use the same number required for the whole lawn, and multiply it times the hours
$\frac{1}{4} \times 8 = 2$

-3(1-2x)-3=-20-8x what is the work and answer

larisa86 [58]

You have to keep order of operations in mind.

1. Take care of the parentheses; distribute.
-3+6x-3=-20-8x
Simplified: 6x-6=-20-8x

2. Isolate the x variable.
Add 8x to both sides and add 6 to both sides.
14x=-14

3. Solve for x.
Divide by 14 on both sides.
x=-1
