Answer:

5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify by finding common factors and dividing both the numerator and denominator by it.

40/ 56 = 20/28(divided by 2)  = 10 / 14 (divided by 2) = 5/7 ( divided by 2)

salma purchased a prepaid phone card for $20. long distance calls cost 24 cents a minute using this card. salma used her card on
suter [353]
We can set up an equation to solve this problem, but first we need to write out what we know.

$20 overall
$0.24 every minute
$13.52 remaining on the card

Now that we know our information, we can set it up in an equation. 

20 - 0.24x = 13.52

The 20 represents $20 overall when she first got the phone card.
We are then subtracting $20 from how must it costs a minute (which is 24 cents). The 'x' indicates the number we are trying to find (how many minutes her call lasted). Lastly, 13.52 is the result of everything, since she has $13.52 remaining on the card.

We can now solve the equation:

20 - 0.24x = 13.52
-0.24x = 13.52 - 20 /// subtract 20 from each side
-0.24x = -6.48 /// simplify
x = 27 /// divide each side by -0.24

Our solution is: x = 27.

-----

An easier way to solve this problem would be to first, subtract the total amount of money she had on the card when she first got it, and then the remaining total she ended up with.

$20 - $13.52 = $6.48

So, she spent a total of $6.48 on long distance calls, but since we are looking for how many minutes, we need to divide the total she spent and how much it costs per minute.

6.48 ÷ 24 = 27

We receive the same amount of minutes spent just like we did the last way we solved.

Salma spent 27 minutes on the phone.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

Slope- intercept form   y = 200 x + 500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the equation

       200x - y + 500 = 0

where   y, the number of pairs of skates the factory has in the warehouse, and x be the number of hours

The slope-intercept form

                y = m x +C

Given equation  200x - y + 500 = 0

                          200 x + 500 =y

                       y = 200 x + 500

Slope of the equation m = 200 and y-intercept 'C' = 500
