A= there are "4"one fourths in one hour and he hikes 2 miles every hour
B= 1, 1 1/2, 2, 4
C= it going to be 1/3 mile for every 1/6hour and she hikes 2 miles every hour.
D= 2/3, 1, 2, 4
6:5. or 6/5 which ever way you choose
Which method? There is the substitution method, elimination method, and comparison method
Answer : 96
x – y = 16 --------> equation 1
1/8 x + 1/2 y = 52
x is the higher grade and y is the lower grade
We solve the first equation for y
x - y = 16
-y = 16 -x ( divide each term by -1)
y = -16 + x
Now substitute y in second equation
1/8 x + 1/2 ( -16 + x ) = 52
1/8x - 8 + 1/2 x = 52
1/8x + 1/2x - 8 = 52
Take common denominator to combine fractions
1/8x + 4/8x -8 = 52
5/8x - 8 = 52
Add 8 on both sides
5/8x = 60
Multiply both sides by 8/5
x = 96
We know x is the higher grade
96 is the higher grade of Jose’s two tests.
