Ok, let's find how much does 1 yard of ribbon cost. Let's divide!
Each yard costs $1.50, so let's multiply that by 10
Marci will pay $15 for 10 yards of the ribbon.
perimeter means add the side
(x+4) +( x+8)+(2x-3) =P
x+x+2x+4+8-3=P
4x-9 =P
Answer:
Option D. 3:1, $120
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question in the attached figure
Part 1) What is the ratio between the amount of money contributed by Anna and the amount contributed by her mother?
Let
x -----> the amount of money contributed by Anna
y ----> the amount of money contributed by her mother
we know that
Looking at the table
The value of x is equal to 
The value of y is equal to 
Find the ratio x/y
substitute the values
Part 2) What was the total amount saved in April?
we know that
To find out the total amount saved in April, adds Mon's contribution in April plus Anna's contribution in April
so
So this one is a little tricky because in order to solve you need to combine like terms. The only problem is that two fractions don't have the same denominator.
This is what you do.
2/3 - 1/9
= (2*9) - (1*3) / 3*9
= 18 - 3 / 27
= 15/ 27
Simplify.
5/9 + y = 7/9
Now since you need to isolate the variable you have to subtract 5/9 from both sides. Since the denominator is the same you can just subtract the numerator.
So y = 2/9
I hope this helps love! :)
