Lets say she has x money

Now she spent 3/5of x means 2/5 is left
2/5*x=45
x=112.5

3/5 = 60%
x- .6x= 45
.4x =45
x = 45/.4
x=$112.50

Have a nice day!

Answer:

x = -8/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the equation easier to work with, our first step will be to make all of our fractions have a common denominator. Both 2 and 4 are factors of 8, so that will be our common denominator.

Old Equation: 1/4x - 1/8 = 7/8 + 1/2x

New Equation (with common denominators): 2/8x - 1/8 = 7/8 + 4/8x

Now, we're going to begin to isolate the x variable. First, we're going to subtract 2/8x from both sides, eliminating the first variable term on one side completely.

2/8x - 1/8 = 7/8 + 4/8x

-2/8x                    -2/8x

__________________

-1/8 = 7/8 + 2/8x

We're one step closer to our x variable being isolated. Next, we're going to move the constants to the left side of the equation. To do this, we must subtract by 7/8 on both sides.

-1/8 = 7/8 + 2/8x

- 7/8  -7/8

______________

-1 = 2/8x

Our last step is to multiply 2/8x by its reciprocal in order to get the x coefficient to be 1. This means multiply both sides by 8/2.

(8/2)  -1 = 2/8x (8/2)

The 2/8 and 8/2 cancel out, and you're left with:

-8/2 = x

I hope this helps!

A Poker club has 10 members. A president and a vice-president are to be selected. In how many ways can this be done if everyone
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

90 different ways

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a total of 10 members, and we want to find how many groups of 2 members we can have, where the order of each member in the group of 2 is important, so we have a permutation problem.

To solve this problem, we need to calculate a permutation of 10 choose 2.

The formula for a permutation of n choose p is:

P(n, p) = n! / (n - p)!

So we have:

P(10, 2) = 10! / (10 - 2)!

P(10, 2) = 10! / 8!

P(10, 2) = 10*9 = 90

So there are 90 different ways of choosing a president and a vice-president.

Evaluate the function g(x) = -2x- + 3x - 5 for the input values -2, 0, and 3.
gladu [14]

Answer:

g(-2)=3

g(0)=-5

g(3)=2

Step-by-step explanation:

g(-2)= -2(-2)+ 3(-2) - 5

4-6-5

2-5

g(-2)=3

g(0)= -2(0) + 3 (0)-5

0+0-5

g(0)=-5

g(3)= -2(3) + 3(3)-5

-6+9-5

3-5

g(3)=2

Solving Rational equations. LCD method. Show work. Image attached.
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

b=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational equation is

\frac{2b-5}{b-2} -2=\frac{3}{b+2}

The Least Common Denominator is (b+2)(b-2).

Multiply each term in the equation by the LCD.

(b+2)(b-2)\times \frac{2b-5}{b-2} -(b+2)(b-2)\times2=(b+2)(b-2)\times\frac{3}{b+2}

Simplify;

(b+2)\times \frac{2b-5}{1} -2(b+2)(b-2)=(b-2)\times\frac{3}{1}

(b+2)(2b-5) -2(b+2)(b-2)=3(b-2)

Expand and group similar terms

2b^2-5b+4b-10 -2(b^2-4)=3b-6

2b^2-5b+4b-10 -2b^2+8=3b-6

-b-2=3b-6

3b+b=-2+6

4b=4

b=1
