First, let's convert the givens to decimals to make calculations easier:
2 (3/4) = 2.75
9(5/8) = 9.625

We are given that:
Josie can hike 2.75 miles in one hour.
To know the time that Josie would take to hike 9.625 miles, we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:
2.75 miles ..........> 1 hour
9.625 miles .............> ?? hours

Time = (9.625*1) / (2.75) = 3.5 hours

If x=10, write an expression in terms of x for the number 5,364
LenKa [72]

Answer:

(5,354 + x)

or

536.4*x

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that x = 10.

Now we want to write an expression (in terms of x) for the number 5,364.

This could be really trivial, remember that x = 10.

Then:  (x - 10) = 0

And if we add zero to a number, the result is the same number, then if we add this to 5,364 the number does not change.

5,364 = 5,364 + (x - 10) = 5,364 + x - 10

5,364 = 5,354 + x

So (5,354 + x) is a expression for the number 5,364 in terms of x.

Of course, this is a really simple example, we could do a more complex case if we know that:

x/10 = 1

And the product between any real number and 1 is the same number.

Then:

(5,364)*(x/10) = 5,364

(5,364/10)*x = 5,364

536.4*x = 5,364

So we just found another expression for the number 5,364 in terms of x.

So if she makes 8 and hour and works 40 hours a week
Thats 320 take home every week
Now divide that number by 8 as she is only taking home 1/8th and you are left with only 40 dollars saved a week.
Meaning to get to 457 it would take 11.425 weeks of work
