1 answer:

4 0

Dad = d
Carolyn = 1/2d
1/2d + d = 75
d = 50

1/2(50) + 50 = 75
25 + 50 = 75
75 = 75

Carolyn = 25 years
Caleb = 50 years

Hope this helps =)

Answer:

14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

48/6 - 10/3

Hint: | Reduce 48/6 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 48 and 6.

The gcd of 48 and 6 is 6, so 48/6 = (6×8)/(6×1) = 6/6×8 = 8:

8 - 10/3

Hint: | Put the fractions in 8 - 10/3 over a common denominator.

Put 8 - 10/3 over the common denominator 3. 8 - 10/3 = (3×8)/3 - 10/3:

(3×8)/3 - 10/3

Hint: | Multiply 3 and 8 together.

3×8 = 24:

24/3 - 10/3

Hint: | Subtract the fractions over a common denominator to a single fraction.

24/3 - 10/3 = (24 - 10)/3:

(24 - 10)/3

Hint: | Subtract 10 from 24.

mario62 [17]

Answer:

About $241.11

Step-by-step explanation:

So, Karen receives 18.2 cents per paper.

She delivers 124 paper per day.

In other words, on days other than Sunday, she will make a total of:

$18.2(124)=2256.8\text{ cents}$

On Sunday, each paper is sold for $0.70 or 70 cents. She also sells 151 Sunday papers. Thus, on a Sunday, she will make a total of:

$70(151)=10570\text{ cents}$

Therefore, in one week, she will do the first equation six times and the Sunday equation once. Thus, her total pay will be:

$6(2256.8)+10570=24110.8\text{ cents}\approx\$241.11$
