Answer: he bought 12 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of books that Greg bought.

Greg ordered some books online for $6 each. This means that x books would cost $6x

He paid a total of $3 for shipping. The total cost of the purchase was $75.00. This means that

6x + 3 = 75

Subtracting 3 from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

6x + 3 - 3 = 75 - 3

6x = 72

Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 6, it becomes

6x/6 = 72/6

x = 12

83 = y - 17 what the value of y
Artemon [7]

The answer is y = 100

To get this answer, you add 17 to both sides to undo the "minus 17" that is happening on the right side.

83 = y-17

83+17 = y-17+17 ... add 17 to both sides

100 = y

y = 100

Jeremy is packaging a stew containers.There are 8 3/4 cups of stew that need to put into 5 to go containers equally.How many cup
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

1 3/4 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to be able to equally divide the stew into 5 containers we need to turn everything into the same format, in this case it would be by multiplying the whole number and the denominator and then adding the numerator like so

(8 * 4) + 3 =  \frac{35}{4}

Now we can divide the numerator by 5 (container) in order to calculate how much stew each container will get.

\frac{35}{4} / 5 = \frac{7}{4}

So each container will get 7/4 of the Stew or 1 3/4 cups
