Answer: the number of yards that art bought is 20 3/20 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Art bought 7 1/4 yd and 12 9/10 yd for two car projects. We would convert both measurements from mixed fraction to improper fraction before adding.
Converting 7 1/4 yd to improper fraction, it becomes 29/4
Converting 12 9/10 yd to improper fraction, it becomes 129/10 yd
Adding both measurements, it becomes
29/4 + 129/10 = (145 + 258)/20 = 403/20yds
Converting to mixed fraction, it becomes
20 3/20 yards
Answer:
Answer: g(-12)=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x)= 3/4x+2
g(-12)= 3/4(-12)+2
g(-12)=-9+2
g(-12)=-7
Let's define variables:
x = Rate in $ / hr of the mechanic working 15hr
y = Rate in $ / hr of the mechanic working 5hr
We have the following system of equations:
x + y = 130
15x + 5y = 1400
Solving the system we have:
x = $ 75 / hr
y = $ 55 / hr
Answer:
the rate charged per hour by mechanics was:
x = $ 75 / hr
y = $ 55 / hr
