Answer:

I will say %39.56 for 7 pairs because you'll have 7 pair of jeans so you don't have to buy more if some of your jeans rips or something happens so yeah.

Answer:

$39.55 for 7 pairs of jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

The LCM of 7 and 4 is 28, so I decided to use that as an example.

4×7=28

22.48×8=179.84

So if you wanted 28 jeans, you'd be paying $179.84

- - - - -

Now the first deal.

7×4=28

39.55×4=158.2

For 28 jeans, you'd be paying $158.20

For 28 jeans, the first choice offers a better deal than the other.

Mind you, I know the word problem isnt about 28 jeans. But since 28 was the LCM of 4 and 7, I decided to use it as an example

Whats the answer for 6b+7-2b=1+5b

Alecsey [184]

$Solution,6b+7-2b=1+5b\quad :\quad b=6$

$Steps:$

$6b+7-2b=1+5b$

$\mathrm{Group\:like\:terms}, 6b-2b+7=1+5b$

$\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:6b-2b=4b, 4b+7=1+5b$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}7\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}, 4b+7-7=1+5b-7$

$\mathrm{Simplify}, 4b=5b-6$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}5b\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}, 4b-5b=5b-6-5b$

$\mathrm{Simplify}, -b=-6$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-1, \frac{-b}{-1}=\frac{-6}{-1}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}, b=6$

$\mathrm{The\:Correct\:Answer\:is\:b=6}$

Given that the length of the garden = 4.5 ft

Breadth of the garden = 6.25 ft

Area is given by the formula

A=length x breadth

A=4.5 x 6.25 sq ft

A= 28.125 sq ft

Here if we round the area to the nearest hundredth, the area will be

A=28.13 Sq Ft

Basic math

LenKa [72]

Answer:

The quotient contains a terminating decimal and The quotient is a whole number less than 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this one, it's mandatory to remember that quotient, is the outcome of a ratio: a number (r) over another (s) (different than 0). In this case: $\frac{81}{918}$ . So q is equal to =0.08823529411.

Analyzing the number: 0.08823529411

This is not a repeating decimal, but it is a terminating decimal for it has an end.

The quotient is also a whole number less than 11.

The Whole Set of numbers is made up of the following numbers W ={0,1,2,...} and 0 < 11. Therefore it is true.
