Well i don't know about the integer but, the elephant looses 4 pounds amonth.
Y = base pay + (variable pay * x)
37.50 = base pay + (variable pay * 5)
75 = base pay + (variable pay * 20)
let v be the variable pay:
base pay = y - variable pay * x
37.50 - 5v = 75 - 20v
-5v + 20v = 75 - 37.50
15v = 37.50
v = 37.50/15
v = 2.5
37.50 - 5(2.5) = 75 - 20(2.5)
37.50 - 12.50 = 75 - 50
25 = 25
base pay is 25 ; variable pay is 2.50 per newspaper delivered.
y = 25 + 2.50x
Remember that when you are making stimates, you are going to roiund to the nearest dollar. Since $3.29 is closer to 3 dollars than four dollars, Sam should use the 3 dollars figure to estimate if he can afford 4 gallons of gas.
$3+$3+$3+$3=$12
The actual value is

, so $3 per gallon is indeed a god estimate.
We can conclude that the correct answer is: <span>
$3 + $3 + $3 + $3 = 12, so Sal can afford the gas.</span>
Answer:
He has 8 1/4 or 8.25 pounds of pearls
Step-by-step explanation:
4 3/4 + 3 1/2
You change 3 1/2 to 3 2/4 and then add them normal and change the improper fraction to a mixed number.
2/3 = 0.6666666...... (I dont know how to put a bar above the 6)
3/11 = 0.27 (with a bar above the 27
8.4 (with a bar above the 4)
