Since there is no value for either X or Y given, you can only change the formula around to equal X.
y=45x+38
First move the 38 to the left side by canceling it out (subtract 38 from both sides).
y-38=45x+38-38
So now we have:
y-38=45x
Now isolate the x on the right side by dividing both sides by 45.
(y-38) / 45 = x
So,
x = (y-38) / 45
(If the answer you’re looking for is a specific number, then the value for X or Y needs to be given!)
Ignore the - sign for now. 11.3 = 11.3 113
------- = ----------
1 10
Since this is the ratio of two integers, 11.3 is rational. So is 11.3.
83
If you really mean <span>0.083, this is rational: it is ---------
1000
If y ou meant </span><span>0.083333333 ... , that's also rational: 1/12 is equivalent.</span>
So, there are 6 dozen pairs of gloves. That amount of gloves costed $87.12. She calculated the amount per pair as 14.52. This was incorrect because she forgot about the majority of the 6 dozen(one dozen is the number 12). So that means there are not 6 pairs of gloves, in fact, there are 72 pairs of gloves. So, now that we have that number, we can <u>correctly</u> calculate the amount of gloves per pair. Now we have 2 answers. The amount per glove and the amount per pair
Answer 1: Each pair of gloves costs $1.21.
Answer 2: Each individual glove costs 61¢<em>(if there is a number under the hundredths place in the price, like in the thousandths, you </em><em>always</em><em> round upwards, in this case, the cost was .605, but you round up, making it 61¢)</em>
The answer to this is a=3
