First you can solve for b: Subtract a on both sides and get 2b=-a+10, then divide by 2 to get b by itself and get: b=-1/2a+5
Then you can plug in this equation for b in the other: This would give you: 2a+-1/2a+5=6. Then you can use that equation to solve for a and get: 1.5a+5=6, subtract 5, 1.5a=1, divide by 1.5, a=1/1.5
Then you can plug in the value of a to solve for b.
All we have to do is multiply the numerator by the other numerator and the denominator by the other denominator.
11•2=22
98•99=9702
They are both even, so we can divide by two with both numbers.
11/4851
4851 can be divided by 11. So we can divide the top and bottom by 11.
1/441 is the product.
59.6 is the answer rounded to the nearest tenth
Answer:
Brand A
Step-by-step explanation:
Comment
The question is one of finding out what the unit cost is.
Brand A: $4.59 has a count of 40
Brand B: $3.99 has a count of 30
Brand A
unit = 4.59 / 40 = 0.115
<em>Rounded: 0.12</em>
Brand B
unit = 3.99 / 30 = 0.133
<em>rounded: 0.13</em>
Brand A even with proper rounding is the better buy
