It is b 4/3+2/3 is 6/3 and 6/3 divided by 1/3 is 2/3x
Answer:
24/5 or 4 and 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
3 and 3/4=15/4
18 divided by 15/4=4 and 4/5
4 and 4/5=24/5
24/5 times 15/4=18
<u>Answer:</u>
The horizontal number line that could be used to show number of centimeters of ribbon Hilary unraveled is 3cm to 4.5cm
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given that Hilary has already unraveled 3.0 centimeters of ribbon and then continues to unravel 1.5 more.
So starting will be 3.0 cm and maximum ribbon unravelled will be equal to 4.5cm so the horizontal number line that could be used would be from 3cm to 4.5cm including both fractional and integral values.
The answer is B. (15,18)
Solution:
First, let's set the variables first.
X = dollars per hour to clean the floor
Y = dollars per hour to clean the rest of the house
For the first statement, "<span>2 hours to clean floors and 3 hours to clean the rest of a house, the total charge is $84"
We can put it into an equation.
2X + 3Y = 84 </span>⇒ equation 1
For the first statement, "<span>1 hour to clean floors and 4 hours to clean the rest of a house, the total charge is $87'
X + 4Y = 87 </span>⇒ equation 2
Multiply first equation 2 by 2 to make the coefficient of both equations 1 and 2 the same.
Using elimination method in solving for x and y,
(equation 1) 2X + 3Y = 84
(equation 2) 2(X + 4Y) = 87
2X + 8Y = 174 ⇒ equation 3
Next, subtract equation 3 from equation 1.
2X + 3Y = 84
- (2X + 8Y = 174)
-------------------------
- 5Y = -90
Y = 18
Find X when Y = 18
@ equation 1 : 2X + 3Y = 84
2X + 3(18) = 84
2X + 54 = 84
2X = 84 - 54
2X = 30
X = 15
The answer is in ordered pairs of cleaning the floors and to clean the rest of the house. So, in the form (X,Y).
