Step-by-step explanation:
0.5 (1) + 5 (3)
0.5 + 15
15.50
You can take the a out of both values. There are no other factorable parts of this expression. Your factored version would look something like this- a(5a-4b)

This question is incomplete. Harlem sells 500 square feet at $750
cost per square foot = 500/750 = $1.50
10% of $1.50 is 0.15
cost per square foot - 10% discount = $1.50 - $0.15 = $1.35
Therefore, Guillens cost for 700 square foot is $1.35 * 700 = $945

Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
If 60% are yellow, the other 40% are green. Then the difference between yellow and green is 60% -40% = 20% of the total number of fish. That difference also happens to be half of the number of green fish:
20% = (1/2)(40%)
So, the number of green fish is 2×3 = 6.

If you wanted to, you could write a couple of equations:
y - g = 3
y = 0.60(y +g)
Using the first equation to write an expression for y, we get ...
y = g +3
Using this in the second equation, we have ...
g +3 = 0.6(g +3 +g)
g +3 = 1.2g +1.8 . . . . eliminate parentheses
1.2 = 0.2g . . . . . . . . subtract g+1.8
1.2/0.2 = g = 6 . . . . . divide by 0.2
There are 6 green fish in the aquarium.
