Here you'll want to add 5/8 with 5/8. Since they have the same denominator already then 5/8+5/8 = 10/8. Simplifying that down to 5/4 then changing to a mixed number is 1 1/4 inches.
I'm sure there's an easier way of solving it than the way I did, but I'm not sure what it could be. Never dealt with a problem like this before.
Anyway, I just plugged in and tested. Chose random values for a, b, c, and d, which follow the rule 0 < a < b < c < d:
a = 1
b = 2
c = 3
d = 4


Simplify into standard form:



Use the quadratic formula to solve:

For functions in the form of

. So in this case:
a = 1
b = -4
c = 2
Plug them in:

Solve for 'x':




So the answer would be A.
Answer:
He needs to work for 40 whole hours
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are tasked with calculating the amount a Tv will cost Bob in terms of the number of hours he needs to work.
Let’s look at the total cost he has to pay.
a. $500
b. 8% tax = 8/100 * 500 = $40
c. He is paying 2 bills of $35 each making a total of 2 * $35 = $70
The total amount he is to pay is thus; 500 + 40 + 70 = $610
Let’s look at his income ;
a. Bonus $45
b. Birthday gift $85
The total amount of money he has asides his salary to offset the bill is 45 + 85 = $130
The balance to pay from his salary would be $610 - $130 = $480
The number of hours he has to work since he earns $12 per hour would be 480/12 = 40 hours of work
C is correct bc if you add 10 to x you get the value of y
