Turn the fractions into decimals.
27/7 =3.85
31/8 =3.87
The in between number is 3.86
Answer:
9 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the equations: x is the amount of hours Amber worked and y is the hours Jake worked
8x + 8y = 120
y = 3 + x
Substitute the second equation into the first
8x + 8(3+x) = 120
Distribute
8x + 24 + 8x = 120
Combine like-terms
16x + 24 = 120
Subtract 24 on both sides
16x = 96
Divide 16 on both sides
x = 6 (hours Amber worked)
Plug in this x-value into on of the two equations. I will use the second
y = 3 + 6
y = 9
13+3k=11
-Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
3k=11-13
Calculate the difference
3k=-2
Divide both sides by 3
K= -2/3

Answer: 864</h3>
=======================================================
Work Shown:
There are,
- 3 sizes of coffee
- 4 types of coffee
- 2 choices for cream (you pick it or you leave it out)
- 2 choices for sugar (same idea as the cream)
This means there are 3*4*2*2 = 12*4 = 48 different coffees. We'll use this value later, so let A = 48.
There are 6 bagel options. Also, there are 3 choices in terms of if you order the bagel plain, with butter, or with cream cheese. This leads to 6*3 = 18 different ways to order a bagel. Let B = 18.
Multiply the values of A and B to get the final answer
A*B = 48*18 = 864
There are 864 ways to order a coffee and bagel at this restaurant.
--------------
If you're curious why you multiply the values out, consider this smaller example.
Let's say you had 3 choices of coffee and 2 choices for a bagel. Form a table with 3 rows and 2 columns. Place the different coffee choices along the left to form each row. Along the top, we'll have the two different bagel choices (one for each column).
This 3 by 2 table leads to 3*2 = 6 individual table cells inside. Each cell in the table represents a coffee+bagel combo. This idea is applied to the section above, but we have a lot more options.
Answer is Choice A - 1.
1 times 2 is 2, and 2 + 8 is 10.
