In this problem, we let x be the number of half gallons of milk the store bought, and x-12 be the remaining half gallonsWe use the equation profit = revenue-cost
88.08=4.02(x-12)-2.60x88.08=4.02x-48.24-2.6x1.42x=88.08+48.24=136.32x=136.32/1.42=96Hence, the number of half gallons of milk the store bought is 96
<h2><u>Solution</u> :-</h2>
Height of Eric = 6 + 1/6 feet
= 37/6 feet
Height of his brother = 5 + 3/4 feet
= 23/4 feet
Difference between their height :
= 37/6 - 23/4
= (74 - 69)/12
= 5/12
<u>Hence</u>,
Eric is 5/12 feet taller than his brother.
Answer: x=16
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we can set a proportion to find the side length of the smaller rectangle.
[cross multiply]
[divide both sides by 15]
x=16
From 0 move to left two 1/3, them move to right four 1/3. The answer is 2/3
See the image
4b + 6 - (2b + 2*3)
4b + 6 - (2b +6)
4b + 6 -2b - 6 (negative distributes)
ans: b
