In this case, you aren't going to get an integer for the value of a, but you can rearrange the equation to equal a.
4a-3=D add 3 to both sides
4a=D+3 divide both sides by 4
a=(D+3)/4 here's your answer
35 = 70%
If you divide 35 by 7, you will find what 10% of your maximum bid is.
35/7 = 5
5 = 10%
Multiply your value of 10% by 10 to get 100%.
5*10 = 50
Your maximum bid would be $50. You actually spend $35. To find the amount more you were willing to pay, subtract the two values.
$50-$35 = $15
Answer: You were willing to pay 15 more dollars than you did.
(199-55)/9= t
Let t equal the number of hours you have to work
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smallest integer equal x - 1, the next one equal x, and the last one equal x + 1.
4(x-1) = 3(x-1) + 6
x-1 = 5
x = 6
The smallest integer is x - 1, which is equal to 5. Thus, the smallest of the three integers is 5.
