-2a-9=6a+15
Move 6a to the other side. Sign changs from +6a to -6a.
-2a-6a-9=6a-6a+15
-2a-6a-9=15
-8a-9=15
Move -9 to the other side. Sign changes from -9 to +9.
-8a-9+9=15+9
-8a=15+9
-8a=24
Divide both sides by -8
-8a/-8=24/-8
a=-3
Answer: a=-3
Answer:
6.75
Step-by-step explanation:
h=hat, s=scarf
5h + 1s = $47 (equation 1)
2h + 2s = $40 (equation 2)
multiply equation 1 by 2 , we get: 10h + 2s = $94 (equation 3)
equation 3 minus equation 2, we get:
8h = $54 ⇒ h = $6.75 ⇔ 1 hat cost $6.75
substitute h = $6.75 into equation 2 to find s,
2($6.75) + 2s = $40
$13.5 + 2s = $40
2s = $26.5
s = $13.25 ⇔ 1 scarf cost $13.25
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
24
The LCM of 6 and 8 is 24. To find the least common multiple (LCM) of 6 and 8, we need to find the multiples of 6 and 8 (multiples of 6 = 6, 12, 18, 24; multiples of 8 = 8, 16, 24, 32) and choose the smallest multiple that is exactly divisible by 6 and 8, i.e., 24.
Answer:
$26.80
Step-by-step explanation:
(I don't know exactly how other people were taught to do percentages, but this is how I was taught and I find it the easiest for me.)
You are going to subtract your percentage number by 100.
100 - 33 = 67
This will give you your multiplier so you can then get your answer but you have to turn it into a decimal.
0.67 x 40 = 26.80
