Answer:

we need to get the same number below to make it easier. so 1/4 will be equal to 2/8.

then she adds 360 pennies so it's 5/8 full.

therefore, the 360 pennies = 3/8 full

because 5/8 - 2/8 = 3/8.

now, we need to divide 360/3 so we can get how much pennies when it's 1/8 full.

360 pennies/3 = 120 pennies = 1/8 full.

now to get a full bank we just need to multiply 120 x 8 because 1/8 x 8 = 1 which means a full fraction.

120 pennies x 8 = 960 pennies.

Raina's bank can hold up to 960 pennies.

Answer:

960

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with the variable "x". Let's call "x" Raina's penny bank.

After adding 360 pennies, at the end, she has 5/8x, or 5/8.

So we start with

(1/4)x + 360 = 5/8x

Let's subtract 1/4x from both sides

360 = 5/8x - 1/4x

Remember, we need to use common denominators to subtract, so 1/4 becomes 2/8

360 = 5/8x - 2/8x

Now we simplify to get

360=3/8x

Multiply the reciprocal of 3/8 to both sides which is 8/3

360 * 8/3 = x

Answer is 960 pennies.

Therefore Raina's bank hold 960 pennies.

Henry just got a job at the mall. His job pays an hourly rate of $10.25.
nadezda [96]

Answer:

A. He will have to work 40 hours to buy the headphones

B.  1200 ≤ 10.25x ≤ 2000    where x is # of hrs worked

He can work anywhere between 118 and 196 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Divide 399.95 by 10.25 to get 39.01 hours. But since you cant work 0.01 of an hour, you have to round up to the next hour

B. You want to make more than or equal to 1200, so put that in the inequality. You want to make less or equal to 2000, so you put that in the inequality. In the middle, you put 10.25 an hour multiplied by the number of hours, which is a variable.

To solve, I made 10.25x = 1200, and x equaled 117.07, which rounds up to 118 hours because you cant work a 0.07 of an hour. 118 hours is the low number of the spectrum.

To solve for the highest number on the spectrum, you do 10.25x = 2000, and x equals 195.12, but since you cant work 0.12 of an hour, it rounds up to 196 hours.
