The way I would do this problem would be to find a common denominator for both of the fractions.

5/15

6/15

And then we can find out how many books there are left.

5/15 + 6/15 is 11/15

11/15 books are about science and biography, the other 4/15 are fiction.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

you have a fixed rate of $25, meaning you get a haircut, it's $25

So, let's make the equation...

y=15x+25

Now, to just get a haircut it's $25.

But, let's say you get a haircut+shampoo

It'd be..

y=15(1)+25

y=$40

Another one..

You get a haircut+shampoo+highlight

y=15(3)+25

y=$70
