Mathematics
1 answer:
romanna [79]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

a+5/3 (Note: this means a+5 over 3, as in a fraction.)

3 x 8 = a + 5

24 = a + 5

24 + (-5) = (a + 5) + (-5)

19 = (a + 5) - 5

19 = a + 5 - 5

19 = a

a = 19

In a certain month, Mason spent 1/6 of his salary in the first three days and $800 in the following ten days and after that he w
Nesterboy [21]
<h3>Answer:   $2400</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

x = Mason's salary in dollars for that month

x/6 = one-sixth of his salary

x/6+800 = total amount spent (the x/6 dollars and $800 combined)

In total, he spent half his salary. This means he spent x/2 dollars for the month overall.

Set the two items equal to one another. Solve for x.

x/6 + 800 = x/2

6(x/6 + 800) = 6*(x/2) ... see note at the bottom of the page

x+4800 = 3x

4800 = 3x-x

4800 = 2x

2x = 4800

x = 4800/2

x = 2400

His monthly salary is $2400

1/6 of this is (1/6)*2400 = 2400/6 = 400 dollars. Add on the $800 he also spent to get a total of 400+800 = 1200 dollars spent, which is exactly one half of the $2400. The answer is confirmed.

-------

Note: I multiplied both sides by 6 to clear out the fractions. The value 6 is the LCD in this case.

A group of friends equally split the dinner bill shown(82,28,52,33,29).If each person paid $16,how many friends paid
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are some tips for how to split the bill when you are out with friends:

Splitting the Bill with Friends

To avoid any conflict, talk openly with your friends about sharing the bill as early as possible. Then, at the restaurant, ask the server if he or she can provide your party with separate checks. Even if the restaurant does not provide this option, asking this question will show everyone that you are only willing to pay for your portion. However, this approach only works if everyone hears your conversation with the server.
