Answer:

1 17/40

Step-by-step explanation:

5/8+4/5

We need to get a common denominator of 40

5/6 * 5/5 = 25/40

4/5*8/8 =32/40

25/40 + 32/40 = 57/40

57/40 = 40/40 + 17/40 = 1 17/40

Math help what is the answer will give brainliest.
artcher [175]
The two equations are
x + y = 7
and
4x + 2.5y = 22
the first equation can be solved for x to be
x = 7 - y
next you can substitute x in the second equation
4(7 - y) + 2.5y = 22
Distribute 4 to everything in the parentheses
28 - 4y + 2.5y = 22
combine like terms:
28 - 1.5y = 22
subtract 28 from both sides of the equation
- 1.5y =  - 6
divide both sides by -1.5
y =  4
plug this in to the original equation of x+y=7
x + 4 = 7
subtract 4 from both sides.
x = 3

Your fuel expense for last year was $800 this year it was $960 what was the percentage of increase. A.23% B.18% C. 15% D.20%
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The percentage of increase in fuel expenses is 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Fuel expense in last year =  $800

Fuel expense in this year =  $960

To Find:

The percentage of increase

Solution:

Let the percentage increase be X

Then X  =\frac{\text{final value}-\text{starting value}}{\text{starting value}}\times 100

Now substituting the values we get,

X =\frac{960-800}{800}\times 100

X =\frac{160{800}\times 100

X =0.2 \times 100

X= 20%
