<span>multiply $75.50 by 0.15(15% in decimal form).then add the amount calculated to $75.50 and you get the final cost </span>
2/5(x - 4) = 2x
2/5x - 8/5 = 2x....multiply everything by 5
2x - 8 = 10x
-8 = 10x - 2x
-8 = 8x
-8/8 = x
-1 = x <===
Answer:
Marcos reads 3 books
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking how many books he read in 1 week, and it said "Marcos reads 3, books in 1 weeks. At this rate, how many books does Marcos read in 1 week?", so he read 3 books.
You start by writing your expression. Since each banner cost 28 per yard, you're going to multiply the price by the length by the number of banners she bought. (28)(17/8)(2)+(28)(25/8)=206.50
