$1.5=1+0.5=1+\frac{5}{10}=1+\frac{1 \times 5}{2 \times 5}=1+\frac{1}{2}=\boxed{1 \frac{1}{2}}$

1.5 as a mixed number in simplest form is 1 5/10. In simplest form it is 1 1/2 because 5 is half of 10 and you keep the whole number the same and also how I got it was the 5 is in the tenths spot and so it is 5/10 and it is one whole so that is how I got my answer.

Every year a man is paid $500 more than the previous year. If he receives $17,800 over four years, what was he paid in the first

iragen [17]

Let x+500 represent the first year

For the $500 more than the previous year for 4 years, we would write:
(x+500)+(x+500+500+500)+(x+500+500+500+500)= 17,800

By adding the equation above, 4x+5000=17,800

4x=17,800-5000
4x=12,800
x=3,200

So the amount the man was paid in the first year is 3,200+500=3,700
