The answer is b if you do the equation right
Answer:
y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
5(3y - 13) = 6y - 2
5*3y + 5*-13 = 6y - 2
15y - 65 = 6y - 2
15y - 6y = 65 - 2
9y = 63
y = 63/9
y = 7
Check:
5((3*7)-13) = 6*7 - 2
5(21-13) = 42 - 2
5*8 = 40
Curt because if his time was 8/9 of Ian's time then that means he ran the mile in a fraction of Ian's time, so he finished the mile quicker. Curt ran faster.
A pair of tires is $216, so at that rate 4 tires would be $432. The managers special is $380 so $432-$380=$52 savings for 4. $52\4=$13 savings per tire.
