(1/8)x + 2 = 9 yields a solution of 56.
(1/9)x – 8 = 7 and (1/9)x – 7 = 8 both have a solution of 135.
72/3=24
24/12=2(2 meters a person a day)
2*15=30
15 people can build about 30 meters of fence a day.
What needs to be done first is to add up females and males that have passed.
42 + 14 = 56
so out of 56 students who passed 42 females passed 42/56 = 3/4 = 0.75
out of 56 students who passed, 14 males passed which turns into 14/56 = 1/4 = 0.25
check work; 0.75 + 0.25 = 1.00
NOW WE ARE DOING FAILS.
15 + 5 = 20
so out of 20 students who failed, 15 females failed so it turns into 15/20 = 3/4 = 0.75
out of 20 students who failed, 5 males failed. 5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25
check work; 0.75 + 0.25 = 1.00
i hope this helped! :)
Answer: 4 1/2 - 1 11/12 = 2 1/3 but in decimal form 2.3
He got 16 questions right (5x16=80) and 10 wrong (8x10=80) He got paid $80 but also had to pay $80.
