Charlie has 1072 more stamps than ryan. This is because if x represents the amount of stamps that ryan has, then 5x represents how many charlie has. set up an equation, and you get 5x+x=1608, because all together they have 1608. Then collect(combine) like terms and you get 6x=1608. Divide both sides by 6 and you get x=268. Therefore ryan has 268 stamps, and charlie has 5x268 stamps, or 1340 stamps, and to get how many for charlie has, subtract his by ryan's, and you get 1340-268=1072

If the clothing maker bought 500 m2 of this fabric, how much money did he lose? Use 1tepiz=0.625dollar and 0.9144m=1yard.
Ivanshal [37]
1 yard^2 = 0.8361m^2.? 

<span>The solution to the problem is as follows:

So he spent (.625 x 400) = $250.00 per m^2. </span>
He paid out (500 x 250) = $125,000 on the deal. 
He received (500 / 0.8361) = 598.014592 yard^2 of fabric. 
That would have cost (598.014592 x 120) = $71,761.75 locally. 
He lost (125,000 - 71,761.75) = $53,238.25 on the deal. 

<span>You can rework with the incorrect conversion factor.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Uber</h3>
  • $5 pickup fee
  • $0.25 per mile

<u>Equation</u>

  • y = 0.25x + 5

<u>Cost of 5 miles:</u>

  • y = 0.25(5) + 5 = $6.25
<h3>KC yellow Cab Co.</h3>
