Not sure what answer your needing so here is a breakdown of the amounts.
3 bracelets times $5 equals $15
How much is each necklace?
Subtract $15 from $40 you have $25 left. Then you divide $25 by 3 you get each necklace costs $8.33 so three necklaces cost $24.99
When you add $15 from the bracelets and $24.99 from the necklaces your total is $39.99 that’s why Megan gave the clerk $40
Hope this helps
To find the difference of given expression:
First step is to subtract the whole number5 and 3.
So, 5 - 3 = 2.
Now we can find the difference of fractions.
To subtract the fractions , we need to find the common denominator.
Common denominator of 3 and 5 is 15.
So, we need to make both the denominator equal to 15.
Similarly, 
Therefore, 
=
= 
So, the difference of given expression is 
.
So, the correct choice is C.
18 meters by 14 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
18 meters by 14 meters
Area of rectangle is base times height (AKA length times width or however you wish to call the dimensions).
This question is a system of equations question. We can make two equations. We know that every rectangle must have 2 "lengths" and 2 "widths" (4 sides in a rectangle). Since Maria only has 64 meters of fencing, we get the equation:
2L+2W = 64
Now we know the area enclosed must be 252 so we have:
L* W = 252
Rewriting the second equation we get:
Plug this into first equation to get:
(multiply everything by L)
Solving the quadratic tells us L can be 18 or 14. Let's consider if L is 18 first by plugging 18 back into the second equation to get 18 * W = 252 which gives us W = 14. If we do the same for when L = 14, we get that W = 18.
Now you might wonder why we have 2 possible combinations, that's because in reality, it doesn't matter which one we label as length (L) or width (W).
