The president of a certain university receives a salary that is three times the salary of one of the department heads. The total
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Salary of President =   $180,000

Salary of Dept. Head =  $60,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is to find the salary of president and department head.

We let the salary of one of department heads be "x"

Since, the salary of president is THREE (3) TIMES a department head, we can say:

Salary of President = 3x

Now, we know the total of these 2 salaries is 240,000. Thus, we can write:

Salary of President + Salary of Dept. Head = 240,000

3x + x = 240,000

Now, we can solve for x:

3x + x = 240,000\\4x=240,000\\x=60,000

And now the president is "3x", so his salary is:

3(60,000) = 180,000

Thus,

President's salary = 180,000

Dept head's salary = 60,000

Which arrangement shows −5 1/2 , −5 , −6.4 , and −2 6/4 in order from least to greatest?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

-6.4, -5 \frac{1}{2}  , -5 , -2 \frac{6}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Arranging these negative values in order from least to greatest may be tricky if you are not familiar with your integer rules and operations. However, if you seem to understand, even a little, this way may be helpful to you.

All you need to know is this. positive and negative are opposites. Thus, if, for example, +2 is greater than +1 in positives, then -2 is less than -1 in negatives. So, in other words, think about it this way when you see a negative number, but you are used to positive numbers, just assume that the biggest number on the positive side is the smallest number on the negative side.

Therefore, if we were to use this method, we would result in -6.4, -5 1/2, -5, and -2 6/4. Since it would be the opposite in positives.
