Answer:
7.16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p = weight of papaya and g = weight of grapes.
Then (3/4)g = (3/5)p. Since the weight of grapes is x + 28,
(3/4)(x + 28) = (3/5)p. We must solve for x. To do this, mult. both sides by (5/3):
(5/3)(3/4)(x+28) = (5/3)(3/5)p
Then p = (15/9)(x+28), or (after reduction), p = (5/3)(x+28).
Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
100%-10%=90%
90%->81
10%->9
100%->9+81=90
<span>6 yr 7 months+ 2 yr 11 months = ?
6 yr + 2 yr = 8 yr
7 months + 11 months = 18 months = 1 yr 6 months
8 yr + </span>1 yr 6 months = 9 yr 6 months
answer is C<span>. 9 yr 6 months</span>
250 = 167.93 + x
[She needs $250, she has $167.93, and she needs x more. x represents the amount of money she still needs in order to get 250]
250 = 167.93 + x Subtract 167.93 on both sides
250 - 167.93 = 167.93 + x - 167.93
250 - 167.93 = x
82.07 = x
She needs $82.07 more
Or you could have done:
250 - 167.93 = 82.07
