I would convert them to improper fractions and then multiply. The improper fractions would be 35/4*13/6, and then you multiply across, 455/24, and that doesn't reduce, but you can convert it back to a mixed number, which is 18 23/24.
Answer:
a = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The equation of the line is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Looks like you've already found the y-intercept and slope of this graph. Great! That's all the info we need to create an equation.
The equation of a line is always in 
form, where k is the constant of proportionality (aka the slope) and b is the constant added (aka the y-intercept).
We know the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is 3, so we can put these values into the equation.
Hope this helped!
Let's call the 13¢ stamps a and the 18¢ stamps b:
a+b = 42 and therefore a= 42-b (formula 1)
0.13a+0.18b= 6.66 In this formula, substitute the value of a according to formula 1:
0.13(42-b)+0.18b= 6.66 Multiply on the left to get rid of the parenthesis:
5.46-0.13b+0.18b= 6.66 Subtract 5.46 from both sides:
-0.13b+0.18b= 1.20 Add on the left:
0.05b= 1.20 Divide both sides by 0.05
b= 24 You have 24 18¢ stamps and:
42-24= 18 13¢ stamps
Check: (24 x 0.18) + (18 x 0.13)= 6.66 Correct.
