Answer:
Elena's move will lead to the solution of the problem
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation 7.5d=2.5d, Lin divides each side by 2.5d, and Elena subtracts 2.5d from each side. Will both moves lead to the solution? Explain your reasoning
Given:
7.5d = 2.5d
Lin divides each side by 2.5d, Lin:
7.5d / 2.5d = 2.5d / 2.5d
3 = 1
This can not be the solution to the problem because 3 can not be Equal to 1
Elena subtracts 2.5d from each side
7.5d = 2.5d
7.5d - 2.5d = 2.5d - 2.5d
5d = 0
This can lead to the solution of the problem
Elena's move will lead to the solution of the problem
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't agree with his statement. The first part says that he was paid $9.20 for the first 40 hours so we multiply them (9.20 x 40) to get 368. Then it says that he was paid 1.5 times that rate for every hour after that. The rate is "$9.20 per hour" so you find 1.5 times $9.20. You multiply $9.20 by 1.5 to get $13.80 per hour. Now you have to find how much money he got after the initial 40 hours. It says he worked 42.25 hours, and we already figured out how much money he got the first 40 hours ($368). So for the remaining 2.25 hours, Mr.Evens is paid $13.80 an hour. So we multiply 2.25 by $13.80 to get $31.05. To find out the total amount of money accumulated, we add. $368 + $31.05 is $399.05 which means that Mr.Evens is not correct. Hope this helped :]
Answer:
$0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the answer multiply the amount of money earned by the percentage $14.98 and 5%
turn the percentage into a decimal. divide the number of the percentage by 100 5/100=0.05
multiply this by the amount of money to get 0.05*14.98=0.749. then round answer to two decimal places to get $0.75
