Answer: a=3 & b=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
X - the divisor
288 : x = 12 ⇒ x = 288 : 12 ⇒ x = 24
Answer: the divisor is 24.
When it says 7/10, it actually means 70%, so you have to find 70% of 120.
<span>
70 % of 120
= 70% x 120
= (70/100) x 120
= (8400/100)
= 84
Answer: 84</span>
Set up an equation to solve.
$8.50x (since it is the rate of change) + $12 (flat fee) = total money earned (or y). In this case, we have the total, amount, and are looking for x. Plug $139.50 into the equation.
$8.50x + $12 = $139.50
Now, solve for x.
$8.50x + $12-12 = $139.50-12 > <em>$8.50x = $127.5</em>
$8.50/8.50x = $127.5/8.50 > <em>x = 15</em>
So, the correct answer is <u>D. Olivia babysat for 15 hours.</u>
