The correct one would by 9h because you are asking how much will Ursula make per hour. So let's say that h is 10, then in order to know how much Ursula makes per hour, you have to add 9 ten times. A short way to do that would be to simply multiply 9 with 10 so that you can get the answer of 90. It cannot be 9/h because then answer will be much lower than it is supposed to be. So the answer to the question is really 9h.

liberstina [14]

Y=5a-3b
Y=5(12)-3(4)
Y=60-12
Y=48

You don't have a sign between b and c in the equation, so I cannot help you with the last operation

If if Spencer spent a total of $704.00 in the month of July, which is the best estimate for the amount of money he spent on clot

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

$Clothing = \$190.0$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given [Missing details]

Spencer's expenses

$Clothing = 27\%$

$Gasoline = 11\%$

$Food = 44\%$

$Entertainment = 18\%$

$Total= \$704.00$

Required:

An estimate for the amount spent on clothing

To do this, simply multiply the clothing percentage by the total amount.

$Clothing = 27\% * \$704.00$

$Clothing = 0.27 * \$704.00$

$Clothing = \$190.08$

Approximate

$Clothing = \$190.0$

Find the sum of each series, if it exists<br>91 + 85 + 79 + … + (29)

Natali [406]

Answer:

651.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: In the given series it should be -29 instead of 29 because 29 cannot be a term of AP whose first term is 91 and common difference is -6.

Consider the given series is

$91+85+79+...+(-29)$

It is the sum of an AP. Here,

First term = 91

Common difference = 85 - 91 = -6

Last term = -29

nth term of an AP is

$a_n=a+(n-1)d$

where, a is first term and d is common difference.

$-29=91+(n-1)(-6)$

$-29-91=(n-1)(-6)$

$\dfrac{-120}{-6}=(n-1)$

$20=(n-1)$

$n=20+1=21$

Sum of AP is

$Sum=\dfrac{n}{2}[\text{First term + Last term}]$

$Sum=\dfrac{21}{2}[91+(-29)]$

$Sum=\dfrac{21}{2}[62]$

$Sum=651$

Therefore, the sum of given series is 651.
