If we place what the husband earns as h and what the wife earns as w, we can begin...
w + h = 110000
but w = 2h - 16000
We can turn it into..
2h - 16000 + h = 110000
Which we can then combine into..
3h - 16000 = 110000
Add 16000 and..
3h = 126000
Divide by three...
h = 42000
(nice)
The husband earns 42,000$ a year
Bonus: The wife then earns 68,000$
42,000 (or h) + 68,000 (or w) = 110,000
Because this is the original equation, we are correct.
2 goes into both numbers, so divide both by 2;
10 ÷ 2 = 5
42 ÷ 2 = 21
so 10/42 in simplest form is: 5/21
Answer:
7.22 x 10^5
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that the decimal is always to the right of the ones place.
1. Move it one place to the left and multiply by 10 to compensate.
2. Move it two places to left and multiply by 10^2.
3. Move the decimal point three times and multiply 10^3 to compensate, and the pattern continues until you reach the very last digit, the 7.
4. Numbers after the 7 that are not zeros will be after the decimal point.
so, 7.22 x 10^5
X - the number of plants in 8 in pots
y - the number of plants in 10 in pots
