konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The answer is that he would have to work 6 hours to have enough money to buy the glove.

Step-by-step explanation:

1: Find the amount he needs to earn by subtracting $14 from $50: 50 - 14 = 36. So he needs to earn $36.00.

2: Since you have to find the amount of hours, you can divide $6 from $36 to get the amount of hours he needs to work: 36 / 6 = 6. Eamon only gets $6.00 per hour so he would have to work 6 hours to get the $36.00.

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

$\%Change = 8.8\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Initial = 51\ cents$

$Final = 55.5\ cents$

Required

Determine the percentage change

Percentage change is calculated as;

$\%Change = \frac{Final - Initial}{Initial} * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{55.5 - 51 }{51 } * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{4.5}{51} * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{4.5* 100\%}{51}$

$\%Change = \frac{450\%}{51}$

$\%Change = 8.8\%$

<em>Hence, the percentage change is approximately 8.8%</em>

What is the solution to the inequality shown below?

lesantik [10]

To solve the inequality, you need to isolate/get the variable "p" by itself in the inequality:

5p + 26 < 72 Subtract 26 on both sides

5p + 26 - 26 < 72 - 26

5p < 46 Divide 5 on both sides to get "p" by itself

$\frac{5p}{5}$

$p$

p < 9.2 Your answer is A
