Answer:
17/25
Step-by-step explanation:
0.68 is read as "sixty-eight hundredths."
Write sixty-eight hundredths as a fraction: 68/100
Now we reduce 68/100.
68/100 = 34/50 = 17/25
Answer: x = -14/5
Step-by-step explanation: We shall begin by expanding the brackets for both sides of the equation
-2/3 (x + 2) = 1/6 (x + 6)
(-2x/3) -4/3 = (x/6) + 1
By collecting like terms we now have
(-2x/3) - (x/6) = 1 + 4/3
(-4x - x)/6 = 7/3
-5x/6 = 7/3
By cross multiplication we now have
-5x (3) = 7 (6)
-15x = 42
x = -(42/15) {simplify further by dividing the RHS by 3}
x = -14/5
Therefore x equals, minus fourteen over five (-14/5)
so, the given number is an Integer
Answer: 8 First class tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
You can set up a system of equations for this problem. Let x = number of coach tickets and y = number of first class tickets. Then:
330x + 1220y = 12730 (cost of coach tickets plus cost of first class tickets is total budget)
x + y = 17 (number of coach tickets plus number of first class tickets is total number of people)
Solve the second equation for y to get y = 17 - x, then plug that into the first equation and solve for x:
330x + 1220(17 - x) = 12730
330x + 20740 - 1220x = 12730
-890x + 20740 = 12730
-890x = -8010
x = 9
Sarah bought x = 9 coach tickets. Plug that into the second equation and solve for y:
9 + y = 17
y = 8
Sarah bought y = 8 first class tickets.
