Because + and - make - which makes you left with 3-5 which equals to -2 because it gets negative.
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
dividing a positive and a negative equals a negative so put the 4.5 in parentheses with the 1.5 and put the negative outside the parentheses. then do what's in the parentheses and add your negative which makes you get a -3
For this, we use simultaneous equations. Let George's page be g, Charlie's be c and Bill's page be b.
First, <span>George's page contains twice as many type words as Bill's.
Thus, g = 2b.
</span><span>Second, Bill's page contains 50 fewer words than Charlie's page.
Thus, b = c - 50.
</span>If each person can type 60 words per minute, after one minute (i.e. when 60 more words have been typed) <span>the difference between twice the number of words on bills page and the number of words on Charlie's page is 210.
We can express that as 2b - c = 210.
Now we need to find b, since it represents Bill's page.
We can substitute b for (c - 50) since b = c - 50, into the equation 2b - c = 210. This makes it 2(c - 50) - c = 210.
We can expand this to 2c - 100 - c = 210.
We can simplify this to c - 100 = 210.
Add 100 to both sides.
c - 100 + 100 = 210 + 100
Then simplify: c = 210 + 100 = 310.
Now that we know c, we can use the first equation to find b.
b = c - 50 = 310 - 50 = 260.
260 is your answer. I don't know where George comes into it. Maybe it's a red herring!</span>
Answer:
c) 500
Step-by-step explanation:
3% = 0.03
multiply the decimal from of 3% by 500:
500 x 0.03
solve:
500 x 0.03 = 15
