The first thing you should do in this case is to write the expression correctly:
- (1/9) y + (1/3)
Now, we take out common factor (1/9) obtaining:
1/9 (-y + 3)
Let's check:
1/9 (-y + 3)
-1/9y + 3/9
-1/9y + 1/3
OK
Answer:
An expression equivalent is:
1/9 (-y + 3)
Treat it just like and equation at first. Multiply the 10 on both sides to get rid of it, leaving you with 50 
x. Then on the number line, since there is a line under it, you would make a filled in circle and an arrow pointing towards 51 and beyond
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of AB = 1 unit.
area of square = 1² unit² = 1 square unit.
Remark
Whatever the original price, he gets 70% in the first instance.
He gets 80% in the second instance.
He gets 90% in the third instance
His total income is 240 dollars.
Let the original price be x
Equation
70%x + 80%x +90%x = 240
70% = 0.7 ; 80% = 0.8 ;90% = 0.9
Solution
0.7x + 0.8x + 0.9x = 240 Take out x as a common factor and add the decimals.
x (0.7 + 0.8 + 0.9) = 240
2.4x = 240 Divide both sides by 2.4
x = 240/2.4
x = 100
So the watches should have brought in 3*100 = 300 dollars.
He only brought in 240 dollars.
He lost 300 - 240 = 60 dollars.
The answer is B.
