Number of weekend minutes used: x
Number of weekday minutes used: y

This month Nick was billed for 643 minutes:
(1) x+y=643

The charge for these minutes was $35.44
Telephone company charges $0.04 per minute for weekend calls (x)
and $0.08 per minute for calls made on weekdays (y)
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44

We have a system of 2 equations and 2 unkowns:
(1) x+y=643
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44

Using the method of substitution
Isolating x from the first equation:
(1) x+y-y=643-y
(3) x=643-y

Replacing x by 643-y in the second equation
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
0.04(643-y)+0.08y=35.44
25.72-0.04y+0.08y=35.44
0.04y+25.72=35.44

Solving for y:
0.04y+25.72-25.72=35.44-25.72
0.04y=9.72

Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.04:
0.04y/0.04=9.72/0.04
y=243

Replacing y by 243 in the equation (3)
(3) x=643-y
x=643-243
x=400


Answers:
The number of weekends minutes used was 400
The number of weekdays minutes used was 243

Which is simplified fraction is equal to 0.53
Artemon [7]

For this case, we must indicate the fraction that is equivalent to 0.53.

It is observed that the decimal is rolled twice to the left, that tells us to divide by 100.

Thus, dividing the whole number "53" among 100 we have:

\frac {53} {100} = 0.53

Answer:

\frac {53} {100}

Guys, I really really need some help badly! I don't understand how to get the "GCF" aka greatest common factor. Can someone plea
Setler [38]

After I explain the procedure in full detail, you'll be able to generate
your own work.  Here it is.

To find the greatest common factor of two numbers:

1).  List all of the factors of the first number.

2).  List all of the factors of the second number.

3).  Scan both lists, and find factors that are on BOTH lists.
These are the COMMON factors.  Write them down in a short list.

4).  Scan the short list.  Find the biggest number on it.
That's the Greatest Common Factor.

OK, I'll go through the first one in your picture . . . 24  and  42 :

1). Factors of 24:  <em>1,  2,  3,</em>  4,<em>  6,</em>  8,  12,  24

2). Factors of 42:  <em>1,  2,  3,  6,</em>  7,  14,  21,  42

3). Short list:    <em>1, 2, 3, 6</em>

4). Biggest number on the short list:<em>  <u>6</u> </em>
