All this question is asking you to do is multiply 65 and 7. The 7 comes from the amount of days in a week. The product of these numbers is 455.
Maria did 455 sit-ups in a week.
Explanation:
Kadisha's method works because 15% is 3 times 5%, and both amounts are computed on the amount of the bill before tax is added.
I don’t understand what the question is telling me
1) combine like terms (k)
0 = 7k
k = 0/7 = 0
zero divided by any numbers will be zero
2) combine the like terms (the constant of -4 + 1)
9 = 6x - 3
add 3 to both sides
12 = 6x
x=2
3) -3+3=0
-4=v
4) 4+3=7
8=k+7
k=1
5)x-5x = -4x
16= -4x
x = -4
