Answer:
9.42
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the amount that Seini earned
Then x + 25 = the amount that Gavin
The amount Gavin earned would also = 425 - x (your directions asked you to have 2 equations.)
Together they earned 425:
x + (x + 25) = 425
2x + 25 = 425
2x = 400
Now divide both sides by 2 to find x.
Use all of this data to satisfy the directions.
Answer:
42 strawberries are in each basket. 4 strawberries are left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many she put into each basket, you need to divide 256/6. Your answer should 42.6666667. Round down to 42.
To find out how many are left over, multiply 42 x 6. You need to do this to figure out how many strawberries total she used trying to put them evenly into the baskets. Your answer should be 252. Then, you subtract 256 - 252. You do this to find out how many are left over. Your answer is 4.
You need to multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 3/4. The reciprocal is 4/3 and 4/3 multiplied by 9 = 12. So x = 12 because a number times the reciprocal is one.
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Combine Like Terms
