If there are eight students total, and five are boys, then the fraction would be 5/8.
5 students out of eight, are boys.
<span>Melanie had 2 1/2 bags of sand for a sandbox. The sandbox needs 3 1/4 bags of sand to fill it.
Melanie said she still needs 3/4 of a bag to fill it. Is that answer reasonable?
</span><span>
3.25 or 3 and 1/4 - 2.25 or 2 and 1/2= .75 or 3/4</span> so the answer is C.
Plan B. to me is he obvious answer.
Answer:
2. Judy =$5
Ben= $4
Step-by-step explanation:
2. Let Judy = x and Ben = y
8x + 10y = 80
9x + 5y = 65
Solve these simultaneous equations.
8
x + 10
y = 80
18
x + 10
y = 130
Take the second equation away from the first equation
−
10
x = −
50
x = 5
This means that Judy gets paid $5 an hour.
Therefore, Ben gets paid $4 an hour.
Answer:
3. 24 quarters and 16 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
3. Let the number of dimes = x and the number of quarters = y

coin coins coin coins
-------------------------------------------
dimes x $0.10 $0.10x
quarters y $0.25 $0.25y
-------------------------------------------
TOTALS 40 $7.60
x + y = 40
0.10x + 0.25y = 7.60
Get rid of decimals by multiplying every term by 100:
10x + 25y = 760
So we have the system of equations:
x + y = 40
10x + 25y = 760
We solve by substitution. Solve the first equation for y:
x + y = 40
y = 40 - x
Substitute (40 - x) for y in 10x + 25y = 760
10x + 25(40 - x) = 760
10x + 1000 - 25x = 760
-15x + 1000 = 760
-15x = -240
x = 16 = the number of dimes.
Substitute in y = 40 - x
y = 40 - (16)
y = 24 quarters.
$1.60 + $6.00 = $7.60
I hope that helped, sorry for taking so long :-)

The distance between any 2 points P(a,b) and Q(c,d) in the coordinate plane, is given by the formula:
Thus the distance between points t(13, 1.6) and v(5.4, 3.7) is found using the formula as:
