Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
You find the variable x or y in one of the lines of the problem and then substitute the value of the variable you first found into the other line of the problem to find the other variable. Then, you plug all of the values you found into either line/equation of the problem to ensure that one side of the equation you pick is equal to what is on the other side of the "=" symbol.
since they cost the same we can work out the price of one by dividing 60 by 5 which is 12
so if each one costs 12 and we need the price of 2 then we just do 12×2 which is 24
the answer is $24
Answer:
-1 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 - (1 1/2)
Get a common denominator
1/4 - 1 2/4
Take the larger number and subtract the smaller number and take the sign of the larger
1 2/4 - 1/4 = 1 1/4
The sign of the larger was negative
-1 1/4
