6 - a = 1/3(9a - 18)
6 - a = 3a - 6
-a - 3a = -6 - 6
-4a = -12
a = -12/-4
a = 3..........one solution
Answer:
You will save $14.00
Step-by-step explanation:
If the shirt is 35% off, it means that you will effectively save 35% of the price. 35% of the price in this case is 35% of 40, which is $14.00
Let q = quarters
Let d = dimes
q + d = 13
0.25q + 0.10d = 2.75
You have two equations and two unknowns.
Take it from here.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If apricots is x, and each apricot weighs 5 grams, then the expression for that is 5x; if each cherry, y, weighs 2 grams, then the expression for that is 2y. If the mix Roy wants to make needs AT LEAST 230 grams of fruit, then
5x + 2y ≥ 230 where the inequality sign "greater than or equal to" satisfies the expression "at least".
So,
12/75 is a fraction.
Simplify
4/25
Multiply by 4
16/100
Since the denominator is now 100, you can say
0.16
