The answer to the equation is approximately 536.91
Simple,
you have a fixed rate of $25, meaning you get a haircut, it's $25
ANY other service is an extra $15
So, let's make the equation...
y=15x+25
Now, to just get a haircut it's $25.
But, let's say you get a haircut+shampoo
It'd be..
y=15(1)+25
y=$40
Another one..
You get a haircut+shampoo+highlight
y=15(3)+25
y=$70
And so on, and so forth.
Let n = cost of 1 notebook
Let p = cost of 1 pencil
Then,
3n + 4p = 8.5
5n + 8p = 14.5
You can solve for one variable in terms of the other and then substitute into the remaining equation.
3n + 4p = 8.5
+ 5n + 8p = 14.5
Multiply the top equation by -2 so that the p-containing terms cancel each other out:
-2(3n + 4p = 8.5)
+ 5n + 8p = 14.5
-n + 0 = -2.5
So after dividing both sides by -1, we see that n = $2.5. Plugging into the first equation gives p = $0.25.
3n + 4p = 8.5
5n + 8p = 14.5
Answer:
3 ÷ 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
There are three squares, so 3.
Each square is divided into four squares,
One square out of four squares is,
1 / 4 = 0.25
Therefore,
3 ÷ 0.25
