Answer:

They charged <u>$6</u> for washing and <u>$2</u> for vacuuming the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the charge of washing a car be 'x'.

And also let the charge of vacuuming a car be 'y'.

Now according to question, Trisha raised $38 washing 5 cars and vacuuming 4 cars.

So framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

5x+4y=38\ \ \ \ \ equation\ 1

Again according to question, Byron raises $28 by washing 4 cars and vacuuming 2 cars.

So framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

4x+2y=28\ \ \ \ \ equation\2

Now multiplying equation 2 by '2', we get;

2(4x+2y)=28\times2\\\\8x+4y=56\ \ \ \ equation\ 3

Now we subtract equation 1 from equation 3 and get;

(8x+4y)-(5x+4y)=56-38\\\\8x+4y-5x-4y=18\\\\3x=18\\\\x=\frac{18}{3}=6

Now substituting the value of 'x' in equation 1, we get;

5x+4y=38\\\\5\times6+4y=38\\\\30+4y=38\\\\4y=38-30=8\\\\y=\frac{8}{4}=2

Hence They charged <u>$6</u> for washing and <u>$2</u> for vacuuming the car.

Tara has a magnet collection from places she visited. She measures the length of the magnets to the nearest half inch and record
gregori [183]

Answer:

there are more magnets that  longer than 2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

Please have a look at the attached photo.  

My answer:

From the photo, we can see that:

Length of the magnet:

  • 1 inch there is 1 magnet
  • 1\frac{1}{2} inches there are 2 magnets
  • 2 inches there are 3 magnets
  • 3 inches there are 4 magnets
  • 3\frac{1}{2} there is 1 magnet
  • 4 inches there are 2 magnets

=> the total number of magnets that  longer than 2 1/2 are: 4+1+2 = 7

=> the total number of magnets that  shorter than 2 1/2 are: 1+2+3 = 6

Hence, there are more magnets that  longer than 2 1/2

Hope it will find you well.
