The answer to your question is A: 5/3. To get to the top point, you have to go up 5, then go 3 to the right.
First get like things on the same side:
-5/6b - 1/2b= -2/3 - 3/4
Then find equivalent fractions to make the equation easier to solve.
-5/6b - 3/6b= -8/12 - 9/12
Then just add things together and solve.
-8/6b= -17/12
-8b= 6(-17/12)
-8b= -17/2
b= (-17/2)/-8
b= 17/16
You can then plug the answer back into the original question to make sure it is the correct answer.
First add the prices of the original books.
2.5+4.95+6=11.45
Find 20% of 11.45
=2.29
Therefore I saved $2.29
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
first 5+3=8
8-9=-1
3 drops : 4 pints = x drops : 16 pints
3drops/4pints = x/16pints
(3drops/4pints)*16pints = x
*cancel pints unit*
(3drops/4)*16 = x
(16*3)drops/4 = x
48 drops / 4 = x
12 drops = x (ANSWER)
