1) 13a=-5
Make a the subject of the formula by dividing both sides by 13(the coefficient of a)
13a/13=-5/13
Therefore a= -0.385
The second one). 12-b= 12.5
You take the 12 to the other side making b subject of the formula (-b in this case)
-b= 12.5-12
-b= 0.5
(You cannot leave b with a negative sign so you will divide both sides by -1 to cancel out the negative sign)
-b/-1= 0.5/-1
Therefore b=-0.5
The third one). -0.1= -10c
You will divide both sides by the coefficient of c(number next to c) which is -10
-0.1/-10= -10c/-10
Hence, c= 0.01
Answer:
1. More magnets are longer than 2 1/2
2. 10 magnets measure in whole numbers and 5 magnets between 2 whole numbers
3. Because the shortest magnet is 1 inch and the longest magnet is 4 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. There are 7 magnets that are longer than 7 1/2 and only 6 magnets that are shorter than 2 1/2. (The 2 magnets that are exactly 2 1/2 are neither longer nor shorter therefore they do not apply to the question.)
Given:
$184500 are to be divided between 2 people.
One person has 80% of what the other person has.
To find:
The amount each one receive in $.
Solution:
Let $x be the amount received by first person. Then,
Amount received by the second person = 80% of x
= 0.80x
Total amount = Amount received by first person + by second person
=
=
Total amount is 184500. So,
So, the amount received by the first person is $102,500.
So, the amount received by the second person is $82,000.
