Mathematics

ANEK [815]3 years ago

1) Let Sean=x and Tyrone=y. But we want to get what Sean earns and what Tyrone earns in terms of one variable so we say that Tyrone=x-4.5 (beacuse he makes $4.50 per hour less than Sean).   2) Now set up the equation: 8 hours time x plus 8 hours times x-4.5 equals 284 OR
8x+8(x-4.5)=284   3) Solve for x  8x+8(x-4.5)=284 8x+8x-36=284 16x=320 x=20   So Sean makes $20 per hour and Tyrone makes $15.50 per hour

Estimate the product 8.91 × 34,871.081
aleksklad [387]
The way I would do it is by rounding 8.91 up to 9 and I would round 34,871.081 up to 35,000.
9*35,000=315,000

Hopefully I was able to help in some way.

44 is equal to 8 times a number minus 4. what is the number?
postnew [5]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "a number" = x

44 = 8x - 4

Simplify. Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First add 4 to both sides:

44 (+4) = 8x - 4 (+4)

44 + 4 = 8x

48 = 8x

Isolate the variable, x. Divide 8 from both sides:

(48)/8 = (8x)/8

x = 48/8

x = 6

6 is your answer.
