I believe the answer is 9
Answer:
177 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Create an equation to represent the system.
Since it's 18% more than what was used last month an equation can be written such as the one below:
(118%)( last month's cheese ) = this month's cheese
Convert the percentages into decimals by moving the decimal place at the end of 118.00 two places to the left
118% = 1.18
( 1.18 )( last month's cheese ) = this month's cheese
Next, plug in the number for last month's cheese
( 1.18 )( 150 pounds) =
177 pounds
A+5 is the same as 3+5 since A=3.
You would take five and count up by three, 6,7,8.
<u>Your answer would be 8.</u>
The first step is to turn the 3 1/5 into an improper fraction, and then change it so that the denominator is 10, just like the 4/10, I'm order to make it easier to divide. then you divide 32 by 4 to get 8.
Sub in what X and y are:

. Solve the exponents (if the exponent is 2 multiply the whole number by itself twice, if it were 3 you would multiply the whole number by itself three times): 3·3=9, 3·3=9: 9(9)= 81. :)
