You do: 1/2 job/hr
Your friend does: 1/3 job/hr
Together: (1/2 + 1/3) job / hr
= (3/6 + 2/6) job/hr
= 5/6 job/hr .
Since you do 5/6 job/hr, the corresponding
inverse unit rate is
6/5 hr/job
= 1 and 1/5 hr/job
= 1.2 hours/job
= 1 hour 12 minutes per job.
Plug in 6 for a (since we are told a=6)
6+10=16 <---add
Answer 16
Let’s call the numbers x and y. Let’s also say that x is the smaller of the two. Since their difference (the answer you get when you subtract is 44 and a half) we know that y-x=44.5
Next we are told that if the smaller increases 7 times (that means 7x) their difference would be 10 3/14. Let’s write that as a fraction. It is 14x10+3 over 14. That is 143/14.
So this means y-7x=143/14.
We have two equations and two unknowns (a system of equations). We write one over the other and subtract them to get:
y-x=44.5
y-7x=143/14
Subtracting yields:
(y-y)+(-x - - 7x) = 44.5 - 143/14
6x = (89/2) - (143/14)
6x= 623/14 - 143/14
6x=480/14
X= (480/14)(1/6)
X=80/14
x= 40/7 = 5 5/7
Since y-x=89/2
We get y - 40/7 = 89/2
Y = 40/7 + 89/2
Y = 80/14 + 623/14
Y = 703/14 = 50 3/14
Answer:
30.10
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the amount of tax
28 * 7.5%
28 * .075
2.10
Add this to the price of the pants
28+2.10 =30.10
