The question gives you 3.5 hours for the first one, $14 for rental(which you solved in the previous problem) for the second one, + $7(also solved in previous problem) for the third one. Solving the equation will give you 56 for the fourth blank. Solving and dividing by 2, you get 28 for the fifth blank.
Solution
≈ 5.83095 or 5.83
Answer:
1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract the four soloists who can't be chosen from the total musicians
16-4=12
Itzhak is one person out of 12 who could be chosen to speak
Also the question is annoying because nobody calls an orchestra with 16 people a "16 piece orchestra"
