We know that Bonnie complete her paper route in 45min. So, in 1min she can complete:

\frac{1}{45} of her paper route.

We need to know <span>how long it would take Jean alone, then we will call this time x. Working together they last 18min, so </span>in 1min they can complete:

\frac{1}{18} of the paper route.

The paper route working together satisfies the following equation:

\frac{1}{18} = \frac{1}{45} + \frac{1}{x}

Solving this equation:

\frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{18} - \frac{1}{45} =  \frac{45-18}{810} =  \frac{27}{810}
x = \frac{810}{27} = 30min

Finally:
It takes 30min to complete the paper route by Jane alone.

A limited-edition soccer ball costs $30, and the sales tax is 6%. What is the total cost?
frez [133]

Answer:

$31.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The ball will cost 100% of its price plus 6% of its price for a total of 106%.

To use percentages as a factor and multiply, they must be divide by 100, making the multiplication factor version of 106% 1.06.

Multiply the cost of the ball by your multiplication factor:

30 x 1.06 = 31.8

Money is written to two decimal places, making your answer $31.80

otez555 [7]

Gary should be the correct choice because when you balance their checkbook correctly you should have a balanced or equal amount in both your check register and your bank statement.

Good luck! Please let me know if I have chosen the wrong answer. All though I am very confident in my answer.

8 was dividedby some numberthen added to13.next this difference was multiplied by 2 which gave a product of 30 find the answer
Anna11 [10]
The answer is 4. 

8/x +13 = y        -------->  y * 2 = 30 

divide 2 on both sides so y = 15

8/x + 13 = 15 
      - 13     - 13 

8/x = 2 

x =4
