If they each kept the same amount of the $50 prize, then we divide $50
by 2 people, giving each of them $25 winnings. Your question is then a
little confusing because it could be answered in two ways. Did they
each keep $20.75 out of their $25 winnings, or did the two of them keep
$20.75 in a combined total? Please read your question again to see
which might be the case. I'm answering on the assumption that they each
kept $20.75.
STEP 1:
divide total prize money by 2
= $50 ÷ 2
= $25 each won
STEP 2:
If they each kept $20.75
= $25 won - $20.75 each kept
= $4.25 each gave away
STEP 3:
multiply amount given away by 2 people
= $4.25 * 2 people
= $8.50 total given away
ANSWER: The total given to Romy is $8.50.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
x+3y=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
y=3x-2 so m=3 old slope
the new slope must be -1/3 (opposite reciprocal of the old slope).
y-y0=m*(x-x0)
y-2=-1/3*(x-(-7))
y-2=-1/3x-1/3*7
y-2=-1/3x-7/3
3y-6=-x-7
The standard form for linear equations in two variables is Ax+By=C.
x+3y=6-7
x+3y=-1
I think it would be 16.95 Hope this help you in someway.
