2/5 + 1/6 = 12+5/30 = 17/30
30/30 is the whole book so, 30/30 - 17/30 = 13/30
Sam had to read 13/30 of the book.

e-lub [12.9K]

SOLUTION

Given the question in the question tab, the following are the solution steps to get the rental cost for each movie and each video game.

Step 1: Write the representation for the two rentals

Let m represents movies

Let v represent video games

Step 2: Write the statements in form of a mathematical equation

$\begin{gathered} \text{Month 1: }4m+8v=57 \\ \text{Month 2: }2m+3v=23 \end{gathered}$

Step 3: Solve the equations above simultaneously using elimination method to get the values of m and v

$\begin{gathered} 4m+8v=57----(1) \\ 2m+3v=23----(2) \\ \text{ multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by }4 \\ 8m+16v=114----(3) \\ 8m+12v=92----(4) \\ \text{subtract equation (4) from equation (3)} \\ 4v=22 \\ v=\frac{22}{4}=5.5 \\ \text{Substitute 5.5 for v in equation 1 to get the value of m} \\ 4m+8v=57 \\ 4m+8(5.5)=57 \\ 4m+44=57 \\ 4m=57-44=13 \\ m=\frac{13}{4}=3.25 \\ m=\text{\$}3.25,v=\text{\$}5.50 \end{gathered}$

Rental cost for each movies is $3.25

Rental cost for each video games $5.50

6= -s + 77<br> Given the above equation, what is the value of <br> 1 + 5(77 - s)?

sveta [45]

Answer:

1 + 5(77 - s) = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for s:

$-s+77=6\qquad\text{subtract 77 from both sides}\\\\-s=-71\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\s=71$

Put the value of <em>s</em> to the expression 1 + 5(77 -s):

$1+5(77-71)$

Use PEMDAS:

P Parentheses first

E Exponents (ie Powers and Square Roots, etc.)

MD Multiplication and Division (left-to-right)

AS Addition and Subtraction (left-to-right)

$=1+5(6)=1+30=31$
