If the band is earning $1,500 on ticket sales, that is equal to 2/3 aka 6/15. (found by multiplying the fraction by 3/3 aka 1) 1/5 aka 3/15 is earned on merchandise. Since 3/15 is half of 6/15, that means that merchandise makes half of $1,500, (1500÷2) or $750.
So, the band earns $750 from merchandise :)
So basically are doing keep change flip of ((x^2)/(x-1))/((3x^2)/(x+4))
keep ((x^2)/(x-1)) change the division symbol (/) to a multiplication symbol (*) and flip the denominator ((3x^2)/(x+4)) to ((x+4)/(3x^2))
now we are multiplying ((x^2)/(x-1)) by ((x+4)/(3x^2)).
((x^2)/(x-1))*((x+4)/(3x^2))
multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get
((x^3)+(4x^2))/((3x^3)-(3x^2))
let's now extract x^2 from the numerator and 3x^2 from the denominator to get ((x^2)(x+4))/((3x^2)(x-1)
now we can simplify it down to (x/3)((x+4)/(x-1))
Answer:
a = 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
a/4 - 5/6 + 5/6 = -1/2 + 5/6
a/4 = 1/3
4a/4 = 1 x 4/3
a = 4/3
Answer:
sold 120 chocolate bars
sold 140 peanut butter bars
Step-by-step explanation:
x = peanut butter bars
y = chocolate bars
x + y = 260, total lbs
0.25x + 0.30y = 71, money
solve double variable equation
multiply -4 on both sides for 2nd equation
-x + -1.2y = -284
add both equations together
-0.2y = -24
y = 120
x = 260 - 120
x = 140
sold 120 chocolate bars
sold 140 peanut butter bars
