3) Tara sold candles to raise money for new playground equipment at her school.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ronch [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Tara's current expression finds how much the school will be keeping. 50 x 2/5 (also written as 50 x 0.4) totals out as 20. $20 is 2/5 of $50. The expression that Tara SHOULD have written to find how much goes to the candle company would be 50 x 3/5 (also written as 50 x 0.6), as this adds up to 30. $30 is 3/5 of $50.

Step-by-step explanation:

50/5 = 10 which means that 1/5 of 50 = 10.

2/5 of 50 ($20) is kept by the school. This is what Tara's expression finds. This means that $30 is sent to the candle company, and can be found with the expression 50 x 3/5.

The decimals are created by dividing the numerator of the fraction by the denominator (I find it easier to do math with decimals).

Solve for h. -18+7h>12+9h
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

h

Step-by-step explanation:

-18+7h>12+9h

Add 18 to both sides:

-18+7h+18>12+9h+18

7h>9h+30

Subtract 9h from both sides:

7h>9h+30

-2h>30

Multiply both sides by -1 and flip the symbol:

\left(-2h\right)\left(-1\right)

2h

Divide both sides by 2:

\frac{2h}{2}

h
