Answer:

StartFraction 1.55 over 1 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 3.5 EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1.55}{1} = \frac{x}{3.5} \\ \\ \therefore \: x = 1.55 \times 3.5 \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \$ 5.425 \\ \\\therefore \: x\approx \$5.43$

Answer:

The number of men was $80$

The number of women was $70$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question in English is

Having organized a bingo has raised $1900. For the entrance of men $15 and women $10 and an attendance of 150 people has been reported. Determine the number of men and the number of women who participated in the bingo.

Let

x----> the number of men

y----> the number of women

we know that

$x+y=150$

$x=150-y$ -----> equation A

$15x+10y=1,900$ -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y

$15(150-y)+10y=1,900$

$2,250-15y+10y=1,900$

$15y-10y=2,250-1,900$

$5y=350$

$y=70$

Find the value of x

$x=150-70=80$

therefore

The number of men was $80$

The number of women was $70$

I need help on my warm up!! pls thx!

Step-by-step explanation:

$\tt{30.16 = 17.56 + 5x}$

Swap the sides of the equation :

⤑ $\tt{17.56 + 5x = 30.16}$

We want to remove the 17.56 first.

Since the original equation is 17.56 , we are going to use the opposite operation and subtract 17.56 from both sides :

⤑ $\tt{5x + 17.56 - 17.56 = 30.16 - 17.56}$

Simplify. 17.56 - 17.56 = 0 on the left. 30.16 - 17.36 = 12.6 on the right.

⤑ $\tt{5x = 12.6}$

Then, we need to think about how to remove the coefficient 5. Since the opposite of multiplication is division , I am going to divide both sides by 5.

⤑ $\tt{ \frac{5x}{5} = \frac{12.6}{5}}$
