Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 1
b = 5
ab
= 1 x 5
= 5
0.5b
= 0.5 x 5
= 2.5
ab - 0.5b
= 5 - 2.5
= 2.5
3:40
1:13
it would be 13.3 repeated but since you round to the nearest dollar it would be 13. All I did was divide 40 by 3.
Find a common denominator between 12 and 9
it would be 36
9*4=36
12*3=36
1*3=3
7*4=28
3/36 + 28/36 = 31/36
Its answer 3 because they are the only difference with two squared numbers
To determine the total class the whole class spent, you just have to simply add the individual costs of the three books. Using parenthesis, the solution can be written in the following two ways:
($15 + $9) + $12 = $36
$15 + ($9 + $12) = $36
No matter where you put the parenthesis, the final answer doesn't change. This is because of the Commutative Property of Addition. The order does not matter.
