Write the ratio out.
Number of hands Betty won : Number of hands Adam won
5:20
Both can be simplified by the common factor of 5.
1:4 is the solution.
Answer: no the answer should have been -5 not 5 because Amanda lost more points than she gained
Step-by-step explanation:
20+(-25)=-5
Answer:
x= -3 and y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
so basically what you are trying to do is reduce into finding x and y
what you do is you want to find a number to multiply one of the equations in order to get the same x or y value does not matter which
so,...
we can do
either 20x or 15y
we will go with the smallest 15y
so for both equations multiply the whole thing by 5 for the first equation and by 3 for the second
5 x 5x+3y=3 --> 1
3 x 4x+5y=18 --> 2
we then get
25x+15y = 15 -->1
12x + 15y = 54 -->2
then now that you have the same Y values you can subtract ! which cancels out both the 15y
25x+15y = 15 -->1
- 12x + 15y = 54 -->2
13x =-39
so now x=-3 and all you have to do with x = -3 is sub this into either one of the equations that you started with !
x = -3
5(-3) +3y =3
-15 + 3y = 3
3y = 3+15
3y=18
y = 6!
She would have to work 11 hours to get enough money to buy the sneakers
But if you want the hours included for the time she needs to work to pay off the loan she would have to work 8 hours, so all together 19 hours.
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
The index of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication. It is written as a small number to the right and above the base number. In this example: 82 = 8 × 8 = 64. The plural of index is indices. (Other names for index are exponent or power.)
