Jocab will take 4 more weeks to buy that MP3 player.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given:

Cost of MP3 player = $ 195

Earning per week = $ 225

Expenses per week = $ 180

To Find:

Weeks still required to save money for buying MP3 player.

Formula to be used:

Savings per week = Earning - Expenses

Solution:

Savings per week = Earning - Expenses

                              = $ 225 - $ 180     = $ 45

Already saved = $ 55

Need to save = $ 195 - $ 55 = $ 140

So for 4 weeks savings = $ 45 × 4 = $ 180

Thus Jocab will take 4 more weeks to buy that MP3 player.

Joseph owns a hot dog stand and sells specialized hot dogs. He charges $1.50 for a plain hot dog and then an additional $0.50 fo
Lilit [14]

Hot Dog Stand

Let

C--------> total cost of the hot dog

x-------> is the number of toppings

we know that

C=0.5x+1.5

where

The slope of the linear equation is equal to 0.5\frac{\$}{topping}

The y-coordinate of the y-intercept of the linear function is equal to \$1.5

That means -------> This is the cost of the hot dog without topping  

Hamburgers Stand

Let

C--------> total cost of the hamburger

x-------> is the number of toppings

we know that

C=0.25x+2.50

where

The slope of the linear equation is equal to 0.25\frac{\$}{topping}

The y-coordinate of the y-intercept of the linear function is equal to \$2.5

That means -------> This is the cost of the hamburger without topping

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The linear equation of the hamburger cost is equal to

C=0.25x+2.50

Mark read 2 1/2 books last week. This week he read 3 1/3 books. How many more books did Mark read this week and last week?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

5/6 books

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Mark read 2 1/2 books last week. This week, he read a bit more with 3 1/3 books.

To find how many more books he read, we must subtract 2 1/2 from 3 1/3:

3 1/3 - 2 1/2

Let's convert these into improper fractions first:

3 1/3 = (3 * 3 + 1) / 3 = 10/3

2 1/2 = (2 * 2 + 1) / 2 = 5/2

Now, we have:

10/3 - 5/2

In order to subtract these, we must find a common denominator. For 2 and 3, the LCM is 6, so we can use that as our common denominator:

10/3 * 2/2 = 20/6

5/2 * 3/3 = 15/6

Finally, we have:

20/6 - 15/6 = (20 - 15) / 6 = 5/6 books
