Answer:
9 2/5 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Both melon and berries are "fruits."
The total weight of the fruit used is thus 1 lb + 8 2/5 lb, or 9 2/5 lb.
B. -5
The two straight lines are parallel, and the angles are at the same places (below and to the right of the diagonal line). The two angles must be the same, and to get 65 from x + 70, x has to be -5.
The answer is thirty three!
Divide -3
-3/-3a = 15/-3
a = -5
Answer: The man was worse off than in 2005
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the man's salary in 2005 was $4,500.
In 2006 therefore, his salary goes to:
= 4,500 * (1 + 10%)
= $4,950
In 2007, this drops by 10%:
= 4,950 * ( 1 - 10%)
= $4,455
<em>The man was worse off than in 2005 because the 10% reduction was based on the larger 2006 salary but the 10% increase was based on the smaller 2005 salary. </em>
