Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If she travels by air, she will be able to work seven hours in D.C. work four hours once there. Her expected income from each hour of work in D.C. is $40. This means that the total amount that she earns in 7 hours would be
40 × 7 = $280
if she drives, she will only have time to work four hours once there. This means that the total amount that she earns in 4 hours would be
40 × 4 = $160
The difference in both amounts would be
280 - 160 = $120
she will chose to fly if and only if the price differential (air cost minus driving cost) is less than $120
Answer:
41/45
Step by Step Explanation:
Add: 8/
10
+ 1/
9
= 8 · 9/
10 · 9
+ 1 · 10/
9 · 10
= 72/
90
+ 10/
90
= 72 + 10/
90
= 82/
90
= 2 · 41/
2 · 45
= 41/
45
For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(10, 9) = 90. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 10 × 9 = 90. In the following intermediate step, cancel by a common factor of 2 gives 41/
45
.
In other words - eight tenths plus one ninth = forty-one forty-fifths.

Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
a + 6a - 14 = 3a + 6a
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>
- Combine like terms: 7a - 14 = 9a
- Subtract 7a on both sides: -14 = 2a
- Divide 2 on both sides: -7 = a
- Rewrite: a = -7
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in a into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>a</em>: -7 + 6(-7) - 14 = 3(-7) + 6(-7)
- Multiply: -7 - 42 - 14 = -21 - 42
- Subtract: -49 - 14 = -63
- Subtract: -63 = -63
Here we see that -63 is equal to -63.
∴ a = -7 is a solution of the equation.
<u>Step 4: Define equation</u>
-12 - 4x = 8x + 4(1 - 7x)
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute 4: -12 - 4x = 8x + 4 - 28x
- Combine like terms: -12 - 4x = -20x + 4
- Add 20x on both sides: -12 + 16x = 4
- Add 12 on both sides: 16x = 16
- Divide 16 on both sides: x = 1
<u>Step 6: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: -12 - 4(1) = 8(1) + 4(1 - 7(1))
- Multiply: -12 - 4 = 8 + 4(1 - 7)
- Subtract: -16 = 8 + 4(-6)
- Multiply: -16 = 8 - 24
- Subtract: -16 = -16
Here we see that -16 does indeed equal -16.
∴ x = 1 is a solution of the equation.

answer is A.) 7.4 × 104
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
240 ÷ 15 = 16
16 x 15 = 240
