Answer:

Janet should receive $1.20

Kay should receive $0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Janet=2 gallons

Kay=1 3/4 gallons=1.75

Total=2+ 1 3/4

=2+7/4

=8+7/4

=15/4 gallons

They agreed to share it equally

15/4÷3

=15/4×1/3

=15/12=1.25

=5/4 each individual gets 5/4

Janet=2-1.25=0.75

Janet gave up 0.75 gallonsof her water

The percentage is

0.75/1.25×100

=0.6×100

=60%

Kay=1.75-1.25=0.50

Kay gave up 0.50 gallons of her water

The percentage is

0.50/1.25×100

=0.4×100

=40%

Janet gets 60% of $2

60/100×$2

=0.6×$2

=$1.2

Kay gets 40% of $2

=40/100×$2

=0.4×$2

=$0.8

How to solve this and explain
Goryan [66]
You first wanna find <BAD, because if AB is perpendicular to AC, then it has to form a 90 degree angle. So 90-56=34 degrees. So now you have a 34 & 63 degrees in the ABD triangle. In a triangle, all angles add up to equal 180 degrees. So 34+63+x=180...and x=83. So <ADB= 83 degrees. Now you want to find angle ADC...which you can just subtract 83 from 180 (because <ADB & <ADC forms 180 degree angle). You will then get 97 as angle ADC. So, the same thing as before, add up 56+97+x=180, because all angles (in the triangle ADC) add up to be 180 degrees. X will then equal 27 degrees. Angle ACB= 27 degrees.

Jamison needs a total of $395 to buy a new bike. He has $35 saved. He earns $15 each week delivering newspapers . How many more
dmitriy555 [2]

An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The number of weeks for which Jamison needs to deliver papers to earn enough money for a bike is 24.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Given that Jamison needs a total of $395 to buy a new bike but he has only $35 saved. Also, He earns $15 each week delivering newspapers.

Now, the equation that can represent the situation can be written as,

Cost of the bike = Amount Saved + Earning by delivering newspapers

Substituting the values,

$395 = $35 + $15x

where x is the number of weeks for Which Jamison needs to work in order to purchase the new bike. Therefore, solving the equation for x,

395 = 35 + 15x

395 - 35 = 15x

360 = 15x

x = 360 / 15

x = 24

Hence, the number of weeks for which Jamison needs to deliver papers to earn enough money for a bike is 24.
