Answer:

6.75

Step-by-step explanation:

h=hat, s=scarf

5h + 1s = $47 (equation 1)

2h + 2s = $40 (equation 2)

multiply equation 1 by 2 , we get: 10h + 2s = $94 (equation 3)

equation 3 minus equation 2, we get:

8h = $54 ⇒ h = $6.75 ⇔ 1 hat cost $6.75

substitute h = $6.75 into equation 2 to find s,

2($6.75) + 2s = $40

$13.5 + 2s = $40

2s = $26.5

s = $13.25 ⇔ 1 scarf cost $13.25

A geologist visits 40 volcanoes in Alaska and California. 15% of the volcanoes are in California.

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

<h2>Most explained:</h2>

40% = 100%

15 = (100% - 15% = 85%) 85% in Alaska

California = 15% of 40 = (0.15 x 40) = 6

Alaska = 85% of 40 = (0.85 x 40) = 34

<h2>The simple way (or the way i found it simple):</h2>

<h3>(I found the simple way after i solve the first way)</h3>

Bye, i hope this helps.
