Jami ate 8 skittles and Sarah ate 16 of the skittles together they ate a combined total of 24
Answer:
Option B. 8.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple index of two stocks: i=?
i=[(5,000*5.1+2,500*7.45)/(5,000*4.5+2,500*7.25)-1]*100%
i=[(25,500+18,625)/(22,500+18,125)-1]*100%
i=[(44,125)/(40,625)-1]*100%
i=[1.086153846-1]*100%
i=[0.086153846]*100%
i=8.6153846%
i=8.6%
Answer:
the Associative Property
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the ORDER doesn't change -- a, b, c on both sides. But the GROUPING changes.
Example:
3 + (4 + 5) = (3 + 4) + 5
3 + 9 = 7 + 5
12 = 12
Subtraction does NOT behave this way!
8 - (7 - 1) = 8 - 6 = 2
(8 - 7) - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0
It matters who you associate with! :-)
Since you need an isolated variable to use the substitution method, we need to re-arrange one of the equations. This will probably be easiest to do with the first one.
Add 5y to both sides of the first equation.
x=10+5y
Now, in the second equation, put in 10+5y in any spot that has an x.
2(10+5y)-10y=20
Distribute the 2 to both numbers in the parenthesis.
20+10y-10y=20
Combine like terms.
20=20
This means that the two equations are actually the same. You can see this if you multiply the whole first equation by 2
2(x-5y=10)
2x-10y=20, which is the same as the second equation. Therefore, the two equations are actually the same one.
