Is is b I am sure that is the right
Divide 4 and 5/8 by 5/8. you will get 7 and 2/5, or 7.4. since this you need whole pieces of wood, round down to 7.
final answer=7 pieces of wood
For the entirety of this problem, p will represent a pair of pants and b will represent a bracelet.
Step 1) Set up equations for Destiny and Guadalupe
Destiny: 178 = 2p + 6b
Guadalupe: 155 = 3p + 2b
I will be using substitution to solve this problem, but elimination can also be used.
Step 2) Solve Destiny's equation for p
178 = 2p + 6b
178 - 6b = 2p
89 - 3b = p
Step 3) Substitute the found value of p from Destiny's equation into Guadalupe's equation and solve for b
155 = 3(89 - 3b) + 2b
155 = 267 - 9b + 2b
155 = 267 - 7b
-7b = -112
b = 16
Step 4) Use the value of b found in step 3, plug that back into our equation from step 2 and solve for p
89 - 3(16) = p
89 - 48 = p
p = 41
one pair of pants = $16
one bracelet = $41
Hope this helps!! :)
If he wants to earn $1000, it means that $1000 must be 20% of his overall sales.
1000 = 20% * x
1000 = 20/100x
1000 = 0,2x / ÷ 0,2 (both sides)
x = 5000
Answer: A salesman must sell products for $5000 to earn $1000.
Angle Z is congruent to angle C, so angle C measures 4x+8
the sum of the three angles of a triangle is 180, so
50+2x+40+4x+8=180
6x++98=180
6x=82
x≈13.67
