First lets calculate how much he makes in 7 hours from his hourly pay.
 Multiply 7 hours by $7, which equals $49, this is known as his base pay.

Now we subtract his base pay from what he wants to earn,
$87.50 - $49 = $38.50

He needs to earn $38.50 in tips.
 

He keeps 60% of his tip money, so we would divide the amount he needs ( $38.50) by 0.60 ( 60% as a decimal) to find out how much he needs in tips.

38.50 / 0.60 = 64.17

He needs to earn $64.17 in tips

Which rational number is one tick mark to the left of -3/4
Zolol [24]

I'm assuming each tickmark is 1/4 = 0.25

If that assumption is correct, then going one tickmark to the left of -3/4 lands you on -4/4 which simplifies to -1.

So -1 is one tickmark to the left of -3/4

Again, this all hinges on the assumption that each tickmark is 1/4 a unit away from its neighbor.

larisa [96]
<span>Instead of thinking about reliability think of failure. 99.999% reliability =0.00001 chance of failure. And 95% reliability =0.05 chance of failure. Assuming failures are independent (they probably are not) the chance of n servers failing is (0.05)n Find n such that (0.05)n=(0.00001) now do it for (0.14)n=(0.00001)</span>
