1 minute = 60 seconds
2 minutes = 60 x 2 = 120 seconds
Fraction = 6/120 reduces to 1/20
The answer is 1/20
Answer:
b=2 or b=-2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve absolute value equations the same as any other equation using inverse operations. However, the inverse operation for absolute value requires one special condition. Since absolute values change a number to a positive regardless if it has a negative sign, we have two possible answers. When we have the absolute value operation isolated, we will set it equal to both the negative and positive option.

We now have the absolute value isolated. We will set it equal to both 9 and -9.

For every loaf of bread she uses 3/8 teaspoons. She makes 4 loaves of bread.
3/8*4 = 12/8 = 3/2 = 1.5 teaspoons
Answer:
1) $16.35
2) 75%
3) $245
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Jada earns = $15 per hour
9% increase = 15 * 9/100 = $1.35
Increased Jada's pay = 15+1.35 = $16.35
2) Markup = selling price - cost= $350 - 200= $150
Markup % =
\
=
= 75%
3) Jada's sister commission is 3.5% of $7000
= 
= $245
<u>ANSWER: </u>
A scooter travels 18 miles in the same time a bike covers 8 miles.The rates of both scooter and bike are 8 miles per hour and 18 miles per hour
<u>SOLUTION:
</u>
Given, a scooter travels 18 miles in the same time a bike covers 8 miles.
The rate of the scooter is two miles per hour than twice the rate of the bike
We need to find both rates of scooter and bike.
Let the speed of scooter be x and speed of bike be y.
And, time taken to travel be t.
Then,
for scooter:


--- (1)
For bike:


--- (2)
Now, equate both (1) and (2)

On cross-multiplication we get
18y = 8x
4x – 9y = 0 ---- (3)
We also know that, rate of the scooter is two miles per hour than twice the rate of the bike.
x = 2 + 2y ---- (4)
Now substitute (4) in (3)
4(2 + 2y) – 9y = 0
8 + 8y – 9y = 0
9y – 8y = 8
y = 8.
Again substitute y value in (4)
x = 2 + 2(8) = 2 + 16
x = 18.
Hence, the rates of both scooter and bike are 8 and 18 miles per hour
