Answer:
30 students are in the science class and 3 students recieved a failing grade.
8% of 552 is 44.16. Look at the percent sign as a decimal and move it two places to the left, that'll give you 0.08. To find 8% of 552, look at it as 0.08 multiplied by 552. After you multiply you should get 44.16.
X = bessie and y = betty
x + y = 1464
y = 2x - 375
x + 2x - 375 = 1464
3x - 375 = 1464
3x = 1464 + 375
3x = 1839
x = 1839/3
x = 613 <== Bessie gave 613 gallons
y = 2x - 375
y = 2(613) - 375
y = 1226 - 375
y = 851 <== Betty gave 851 gallons
Answer: $122.50
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
In Out
8:00 12:00 = 4 hours
12:45 17:30 =<u> 4.75 hours </u>
Total 8.75 hours
8.75 hours x $14/hr = $122.50
Note: to subtract 12:45 from 17:30, borrow 1 hour from 17 and add 60 minutes to 30:
17:30 → 16:90
- 12:45 -<u> 12:45 </u>
4: 45
4 hours 45 minutes =
= 4.75 hours
