This is first a division problem, and secondly a division problem involving one negative quantity.  The correct rewrite of this expression will therefore be negative:

- (5 1/4 ÷ 2 1/2).  

Rewrite 5 1/4 as 21/4 and 2 1/2 as 5/2.  Then we have:

- (21/4) ÷ (5/2),

which is equivalent to:

- (21/4) * (2/5) = - 42/20 = -21/10, or -2 1/10.

The question lacks the total number of socks and belts altogether. Thsi value is necessary so that we can create another equation to solve the unknowns.

if assumed that a = b, the answer, a = b = 2.43 will not make sense since you cannot buy 43% of a pair of socks. Completely define the conditions so that the answer can be obtained. 

by trial and error, 3 pair of socks and 2 belts would be a sensible answer

In a certain quiz that consists of 10 questions, each question after the first is worth 4 points more than the preceding questio
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

C. 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s suppose that the first question is worth ‘’x’’ amount of points. Then the second question will be worth x+4, the third question x+8, the fourth question x+12, the fifth x+ 16, the sixth x+20, the seventh x+24, the eighth x+ 28, the ninth x+ 32, and the last one x + 36.

The sum of the points of all these questions is equal to 10x + 180. Since the quiz has a total of 360 points, then

10x + 180 = 360.

Solving for x we get:

X = 18.

This means that the first question is worth 18 points, the second one 22 points (18 +4), the third one 26 points(18+4+4), and so on.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Just divide the 2 rates, so for Candice it would be 11.98 / 2 so 5.99 per pizza.

For Peter just pick any rate, like 23.96 / 4, which would also be 5.99 per pizza.
