The answer is number 4. Cube
Answer:
x =7, y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We substitute the value of x in terms of y (given) into the equation.
Then we solve for y and plug in the value of y back into the equation for the value of x to find x.
2.8 = 2 + 0.8
*let's analyze the decimal 0.8 as a fraction
0.8 = 8/10
*but if we divide the numerator and denominator by the same common factor of 2, we find that the fraction can be reduced to:
(8/2)/(10/2) = (4)/(5) = 4/5
*now evaluating the whole value of 2 (from the 2.8), we know there are a total of (5) - fifths in order to make a whole, so for 2 whole, we require:
2*(5/5) = (2*5)/5 = 10/5
*Now we add the fractions together:
2 = 10/5
0.8 = 4/5
10/5 + 4/5
*add numerators only, the denominator stays as a 5
(10 + 4)/5 = 14/5
*there are no common factors between 14 & 5 (other than 1, but that won't help reduce the fraction any), so the fraction is in it's simplest form:
answer is: 14/5
10 whole sandwiches can be made with 2 pounds of cheese if each sandwhich has 3 ounces of cheese on it.
2 pounds = 32 ounces
32/3 = 10.67
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let width = w units
Length = 4w - 3
Cost for lining corners of wall = $ 18.50
Perimeter of the wall = 18.50/0.25 = 74 ft
2*(length +width ) = 74
2*(4w - 3 + w) =74
2*(5w - 3) =74
10w - 6 = 74 {Add 6 to both sides}
10w - 6 + 6 = 74 + 6
10w = 80
Divide both sides by 10
10w/10 = 80/10
w = 8 ft
Length = 4w - 3 = 4*8 - 3 = 32 - 3
Length = 29 ft
Area of the wall = length * width
= 29 * 8
= 232 square ft
Cost of painting the wall per square feet = 20 cents = 0.20
Cost of painting 232 square feet = 232 * 0.20
= $ 46.40
