Answer:

s = -\frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of s :

0.5s + 1 = 7 + 4.5s

-Combine both 0.5s and 4.5s by subtracting 0.5s by 4.5s :

0.5s + 1 - 4.5s = 7 + 4.5s - 4.5s

-4s + 1 = 7

-Subtract 1 to both sides:

-4s + 1 - 1 = 7 - 1

-4s = 6

-Divide both sides by -4 :

\frac{-4s}{-4} = \frac{6}{-4}

s = -\frac{3}{2}

So, the value of s is -\frac{3}{2}.

24% of students buy there lunch, 190 students bring their lunch from home. How many students are there in total
miv72 [106K]

so we know that 24% of the students buy their lunch at the cafeteria, and 190 students brownbag.

well, 100% - 24% = 76%, so the remainder of the students, the one that is not part of the 24% is 76%, and we know that's 190 of them.

since 190 is 76%, how much is the 24%?


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 190&76\\ x&24 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{190}{x}=\cfrac{76}{24}\implies 4560=76x \\\\\\ \cfrac{4560}{76}=x\implies 60=x \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{total amount of students}}{190+60\implies 250}

Adam spent $3.42 on orange juice. It costs .12 per ounce. How many did Adam buy?
SIZIF [17.4K]
Hi, 


 I would say that the answer is 28, but it still doesn't add up because when you multiply 12 by 28 you get $3.36 which isn't enough to meet his total, so I tried multiplying 12 by 29 and I got $3.48, which is six cents over his total. So I'm sorry if it is wrong I tried to help to my best ability.

I hope it helps, have a great day/night!!!
