I would say the answer is 5, please let me know if it’s right!
1/2 = 4/8
3/8 = 3/8
8 is the common denominator between these two fractions
Answer:
325 miles and 77 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
First, create equations. Let x equal the miles driven. The first plan expression is 38 + 0.12x and the second plan expression is 51 + 0.08x. Setting these equal and solve for x: 38 + 0.12x = 51 + 0.08x -> 0.04x = 13 -> x = 325 miles.
The cost is found by substituting it into any of the expressions: 51 + 0.08(325) = 77 or 38 + 0.12(325) = 77
Look at this:
2x+$2,000=$28,000
2x=$28,000-$2,000
2x=$26,000
x=26,000 divided by 2
x=$13,000
