Step-by-step explanation:
a. (0.60x + 0.70y)- 50 = 10
<=> 0.60x + 0.70y = 60
b. (x+y) = 5(x-y)
x+y=5x-5y
<=> 4x - 6y = 0
I think the answer could be A but I'm not so sure because at first Kayla has 6 boxes with x amount of books in the boxes with four left over so the equation would be 6x+4= number of books. So if she then replaces the now five boxes with x amount of books in them and adds four books to each of the five boxes you get 5x+4=number of books so it all equals out to the same number of books on both sides of the equal sign for 6x+4=5x+4
Answer:
so many bots have replied to my questions :\\\
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion to find this
60 x
--- = ----
100 1200
then we cross multiply and divide to solve
60 times 1200 is 72000 divided by 100 is 720
now we know his employer pays 720 out of 1200
we subtract to find out how much he pays
1200-720 is 480
fred pays 480
