Answer:
David made $18
Step-by-step explanation:
Leslie made $10. This means that you take 46-10=36
Chen-Chen made twice as much as David so 36/2=18 So Chen made $9.
David- 36-18= 18 So, David made 18 dollars.
The first step to solving this is converting these mixed numbers into improper fractions. You would do that by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding the numerator to that number; this number replaces the numerator. It would look something like this:
1 8/10 --> 18/10
2 2/5 --> 12/5
Now, to subtract the second fraction from the first one, the denominators of both fractions must be the same. We can make them the same by multiplying the second fraction by 2:
12/5 * 2/2 = 24/10
Now we can set up the equation as:
18/10 - 24/10 = -6/10 --> -3/5
The answer is negative 3/5.
I hope this helps.
Y would be 16,
y=kx
6=3k
2=k
y=2(8)
y=16
Each dive goes further down, so it represents -50 ft (not positive which would represnt going up).
y= -125-50x
We know that there are 3 dives so plug that in for x
y= -125-50(3)
y= -125-150
y= -275
Final answer: -275 ft
