1 answer:

8 0

$-0.75-\left(-\dfrac{2}{5}\right)+0.4+\left(-\dfrac{3}{4}\right)=-0.75+\dfrac{2}{5}+0.4-\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\=-0.75+\dfrac{2\cdot2}{5\cdot2}+0.4-\dfrac{3\cdot25}{4\cdot25}=-0.75+\dfrac{4}{10}+0.4-\dfrac{75}{100}\\\\=-0.75+0.4+0.4-0.75=-(0.75+0.75)+(0.4+0.4)\\\\=-1.5+0.8=-0.7$

Answer:

They spent $15.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's given that Jane bought x cookies, so 3x.

John spent $1 on each of the x cookies he got, and also an extra $10, so x+10.

3x=x+10

2x=10

x=5

So they got 5 cookies each.

5 cookies x $3= $15 (check with $5(1)+$10= $5+$10= $15 )

Pls help i dont get how to do this

Lorico [155]

Step-by-step explanation:

What this is saying is...20 is a whole number; but 3/4 is not. What they are saying is, if you have to add a mixed number with a whole number, you can add both of the whole numbers together. Then, you add the 3/4 at the end...because it is not a whole number. You can break apart a mixed number by separating the whole number and the fraction.

Hope this helps :)
