Answer:Answer: Isabella buys 2 paintbrushes and 3 jars of paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Isabella can buy together 5 paintbrushes ( p ) and jars of paint ( p ) : j + p = 5, She can`t buy 4 items ( because 4 * $0.99 = $3.96 < $4.87 ) and she also can`t buy 6 items ( 6 * $0.95 = $5.70 > $4.87 ). So: p = 5 - j. Another equation is: 0.95 * ( 5 - j ) + 0.99 j = 4.87, 4.75 - 0.95 j + 0.99 j = 4.87; 0.04 j = 0.12; j = 0.12 : 0.04; j = 3, p = 5 - 3 = 2. We can prove it: 0.95 * 2 + 0.99 * 3 = 1.90 + 2.97 = 4.87.

(Hope this helps!!!!)

Express 0,45 as a common fraction in simplest form
Bezzdna [24]
In order to express 0.45 as a common fraction, all you have to do is first divide 45 to 100. So in order to get the answer to this, you just have to put 45 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator. This will become 45/100. To turn it into its simple form, you have to first ask yourself what is a common divisible number for the two. 5 can be divided by 45 and 100 so 5 can be used. So the final answer, if you make it into simplest form, will be 9/20
