Anserr what the question?
Step-by-step explanation:
You mean 60%of 5 1/2? that makes more sense...
i would do it like this:

(60% is the same as

(so that there is no confusion, i've put it into an improper fraction
now we can multiply:





which is 3.3.
so 60% of 5 and a half is 3.3.
From the given scenario in this item, we can say that the sum of x and y is 500. By the aluminum balance, the equation that we can formulate from this,
0.25x + 0.40y = (500)(0.35)
The system of linear equations that can best express the given is,
x + y = 500
0.25x + 0.40y = 175
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-9x + 6y = -30
-7x + 12y = -16
18x - 12y = 60
-7x + 12y = -16
11x = 44
x = 4
-36 + 6y = -30
6y = 6
y = 1
