Answer:
300
Step-by-step explanation:
15 * 20 = 300
she spent 3/5 * 300 = 180
and saved 2/5 * 300 = 120
Formula
====
d = r * t
Givens
======
d = 2 3/4
t = 1 hour 15 minutes
r = ????
Calculations
==========
You need to convert the 15 minutes to hours.
1 hour = 60 minutes
x hour = 15 minutes
1/60 = x/15
x = 15/60
x = 0.25 hours
so the time = 1 hours + 0.25 hours
t = 1.25 hours
Now you need to do something with the distance.
3/4 mile = 0.75 of a mile
So the distance = 2 + 0.75 = 2.75 miles
Now you are ready for the answer.
d = r * t you are looking for r
2.75 = r * 1.25
r = 2.75/1.25
r = 2.2 miles / hour
Note you could do this with fractions.
2 3/4 = 11/4
1 1/4 = 5/4
r = 11/4 // 5/4 =11/5 = 2 1/5 which is the same thing as 2.2. If your calculator can handle fractions (those kind of calculators cost about 10 dollars in Canada. It should be 8 in the US) that might be the way to do this problem.
Subtract 19 from both sides
-3x=2+x
Subtract x from both sides
-4x=2
Divide both sides by -4
x=-1/2
Final answer: x=-1/2

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Increase is difference between ending and begining value so 23-(-8) =23+8.
In this case its absolute value because it has to be positive
