Assuming he earned 620 on the weekend

so if 2/5=620

2/5 of all=620
times both sides by 5/2
all=3100/2
all=1550

total earnings will be $1550

The area of a rectangular patio is 5 5/8 square yards, and it's length is 1 1/2 yards. What is the patio's width in yards?

Hello there! Thank you for asking your question here at Brainly. I will be assisting you today with answering this problem, and will be teaching you how to deal with it on your own in the future.

First, let's take a look at our question, and evaluate it.

"The area of a rectangular patio is 5 5/8 square yards, and it's length is 1 1/2 yards. What is the patio's width in yards?"

To clarify this problem, we are looking for the patio's width.

Let's first understand what the area of a rectangular shape is.
The formula for the area of a rectangle is "Length times Width", or "L • W".

So this is how the equation should look like:
A = L • W
We have our area, 5 5/8, and we have our length, 1 1/2.

To make things more simple, let's convert our fractions to decimals. Now, to convert our fractions to decimals, let's set our denominators (the numbers on the bottom of a fraction) equal to another fraction, with x as the numerator (the numbers on the top of a fraction) and 100 as the denominator.

So we have 1/2 and x/100. Divide 100 by 2 to find x (as 1/2 of anything is dividing by 2).
100 / 2 = 50, so 1 1/2 = 1.50 as a decimal.

Now, let's try 5/8.
1/8 = 0.125, so multiply 0.125 by 5.
0.125 • 5 = 0.625.
5 5/8 = 5.625 as a decimal.

So, now we have our equation:
A = L • W
Plug in our numbers.
5.625 = 1.50x

To isolate and solve for x, we need to divide both sides by 1.50, so let's do that.
5.625 / 1.50 = 3.75
1.50x / 1.50 = x

We are now left with:
x = 3.75

Your answer is:
The patio's width is 3.75 yards.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

$393.75

$2,446.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take this problem one step at a time. First let's compute for the total price after the sales tax has been added.

Sales tax = 8.75% or 0.0875

Original Price = $4,500

The sales tax is computed by multiplying the total to the sales tax rate.

4,500 x 0.0875 = $393.75

$393.75 is the total sales tax that Brenton will pay.

Now to find the total price with the sales tax included, we simply add the original price and the sales tax value together.

4,500 + 393.75 = $4,893.75

Now that we have the total overall price, we can then compute for how much the 50% down payment Brenton has made.

Down Payment = 50% or 0.5

Overall Price = $4,893.75

We simply multiply both the down payment and the overall price to find how much Brenton has paid.

4,893.75 x 0.5 = $2,446.88

Now that we know how much Brenton paid, we also now know how much Brenton financed by subtracting the overall price to his down payment.

4,893.75 - 2,446.88 = $2,446.88

Brenton finance a total amount of $2,446.88.
