44 inches.
All you have to do is find out what 10% of 40 is then add it back to 40. In the case of finding 10% of something you just “chop” of the back number (or move the decimal place forward) so 10% of 40 is 4. The. 40+4=44.
You can also multiply fractions to find the percent of a number but that is not necessary in this case.
Answer:
x= (y+40)-(y-330)
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the information provided, the difference in their scores would be the result of subtracting Austin's SAT score from Alexandra's SAT score.
Then, as Alexandra's SAT score was 40 points above the average score this means that you have to add 40 to the average score to get her result. Also, as Austin's SAT score was 330 points below the average score, this means that you have to subtract 330 from the average score. With this you can write the expression:
x= difference in their scores
y= average score
x= (y+40)-(y-330)
Janine = J = 15
Leah = L = ?
L = J + 6
L = 15 + 6
L = 21
So Leah spent $21

Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 2(x + 3y) + 3y
= 7x - 2x - 6y + 3y
= 5x - 3y
Will got 5x + 9y because he didn't multiply the values in the bracket by the minus sign outside the bracket. He multiplied the values by +2 rather than -2. This resulted in the wrong answer that he got.
