Answer:

$17x = y$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that you write 17 text messages a week. 17 will be our constant number, now then after you said for x weeks.

Meaning that x would be our variable cause we can put an input of any number, then put it next to 17 because that is how many times you text a week.

17x = y

17 (how many times you text per week) x (how many weeks) = y (texts in total)

Here, you do the same as the previous one, keeping in mind that X cuts TW in a 2:1 ratio.

$\bf TW-TX=XW\implies \cfrac{8a}{5}+\cfrac{1}{10}-\left(a +\cfrac{4}{5} \right)=XW
\\\\\\
\cfrac{8a}{5}+\cfrac{1}{10}-a-\cfrac{4}{5}=XW\implies \cfrac{3a}{5}-\cfrac{7}{10}=XW\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf TX:XW\qquad 2:1\qquad \cfrac{TX}{XW}=\cfrac{2}{1}\implies \cfrac{a+\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{3a}{5}-\frac{7}{10}}=\cfrac{2}{1}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\frac{5a+4}{5}}{\frac{6a-7}{10}}=\cfrac{2}{1}\implies \cfrac{5a+4}{5}\cdot \cfrac{10}{6a-7}=\cfrac{2}{1}\implies \cfrac{10a+8}{6a-7}=\cfrac{2}{1}
\\\\\\
10a+8=12a-14\implies 22=2a\implies \cfrac{22}{2}=a\implies 11=a$

The Washer family spent $15.80 each week for milk until the milk prices rose 5% in their town How much do they spend weekly on m

Law Incorporation [45]

15.80 * 1.05 should give you the answer

A method to solve it would be would be:
First converting 5% to a decimal then multiplying that by 15.80 in order the find 5 percent of 15.80...Afterwards you have to add that value to the original 15.80 ..And you should end up with the same answer.

What is 1/2 to 1/4 equals

sergey [27]

Do you mean 1/2 of 1/4 if so it’s just timsing the numerator by the numerator and the denominator by the denominator. So, 1 x 1 = 1 and 2 x 4 = 8

Therefore it’s 1/8!

If you didn’t understand I’ll gladly elaborate!
