<span>Easiest way is to flip the divisor and multply.
4/9 divided by 1/3
is the same as 4/9 times 3/1
Should be pretty easy to go the rest of the way yourself.</span>
So, givens: total lesson cost of $260, total lessons taken are 6, and the first lesson costs 1.5 (or 3/2) as much as the additional lessons.
First thing to do is to figure out how many additional lessons are in that, which are 5.
Then you can make a 1 variable equation with the information you have. I’m using x as my variable.
260= 3/2x + 5x
Combine like terms.
260 = 13/2x
Divide both sides by 13/2 (treat it as a fraction, and if your calculator cannot make fractions, then decimal might help for this. 13/2=6.5)
X=40

Answer:
5.781 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Mr. Jimerson records the amount of snowfall that the local area recieves, recording the following data: 12 am-1am: 0.3 inches | 1 am-2am: 0.8 inches | 2 am-3am: 1.36 inches | 3 am-4am: 2.019, if the total amount of snowfall at 7am is 7.8 inches, to determine how much snow fell between 4 am-7am the following calculation must be performed:
7.8 - 2.019 = X
5.781 = X
Therefore, since the amount of snow accumulated at 7 am was 7.8 inches, the snowfall between 4 and 7 am was 5.781 inches.
Answer:
x = 6.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up using proportion and cross multiply to solve:
8/10 = x/8
x = 6.4
