Answer:

The the price of one ream of paper is $6.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, Let us assume the cost of one ream of paper  = $  m

<u>The money spent by Fred:</u>

The money spent on a  binder  = $4.50

The money spent on 6 ream of papers  =  6 x ( cost of 1 ream )

= 6 x ($m) = 6 m

⇒The total money Fred spent  = Money spent on (binder + 6 ream of papers)  

= 4.50 + 6 m  ....... (1)

<u>The money spent by Latasha:</u>

The money spent on a cartridge = $17.50

The money spent on 4 ream of papers  =  4 x ( cost of 1 ream )

= 4 x ($m) = 4 m

⇒The total money Latasha spent  = Money spent on (cartridge + 4 ream of papers)  

= 17 .50 + 4 m  .... (2)

Also, Both spend the same amount of money

⇒4.50 + 6 m = 17 .50 + 4 m   ( from (1) and (2))

or, 6 m - 4  m= 17. 50 - 4, 50

or, 2 m =  13

or, m = 13/ 2  = 6.5

So, the value of m = $6.5

Hence, the the price of one ream of paper is $6.5.

Question 4:

OOOOOHHH a breakthrough! I was confused when I read this question but now I get it!

Okay when dividing this equation I would do this

5^4

25

Since 25 is 5 x 5 I would mark it as 5^2, and then I can subtract!

5^4

5^2 =

5^2

If you do it like this then it would be the first choice.
