Answer:
Rayshawn originally had $30.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) Rayshawn has a certain amount of money. Let us say this amount is $x.
ii) Rayshawn spends $20 which means that he is left with $(x - 20)
iii) it is also given that amount of money left after spending $20 is 
of the original amount, $x, the amount remaining is 
.
iv) from the information given in ii) and iii) we get
$(x - 20) = , Therefore we get 3x - 60 = x , therefore 2x = 60,
Therefore x = $30. Rayshawn originally had $30.
It does represent a direct variation.
Direct variation: y = kx
y varies directly with x
Your equation 2y = 5x + 1 is in the form of y = kx but we need to divide out the 2 from 2y so we have the following
2y = 5x + 1
2y / 2 = 5 x/ 2 + 1/2
y = 5x / 2 + 1/2
y = kx
k = 5/2
k = constant of variation = 5/2
Answer:
5 5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
-4•6/7•-5/3
Put the numbers as fractions
-4/1•6/7•-5/3
Rewriting
-4/1 * 6/3 * -5/7
Simplifying the middle fraction
-4/1 * 2/1 * -5/7
Multiply the first two terms
-8/1 * -5/7
Multiplying
40/7
Changing from an improper fraction to a mixed number
7 goes into 40 5 times with 5 left over
5 5/7
The answer is false I hope this helps
Strip diagram is a tool that is used to be able to solve the given problem accurately.
I will show you how to do it.
we have 136 ounces that needs to be convert to cups
1 ounce = 0.125 cup
In 1 cup = 8 ounce
136 ounces / 8 cups = 17 cups
