The mistake he makes is by saying 3/4 + 1/4 = 4/8

The denominators stay the same when adding fractions, and the denominators must be the same value.

So instead, he should have 3/4 + 1/4 = 4/4 = 1

Overall, 5 3/4 + 2 1/4 = 5+2+1 = 8

The amount of money Sally earns, P, varies directly with the number, n, of necklaces she sells. When Sally sells 15 necklaces, s
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Equation: P = 10n

P = 40 when n = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Direct Variation: P ∝ n

When n = 15, P = 150

Required

Determine the equation

Her earnings if she sold 4 necklaces

P ∝ n

Convert variation to equation

P = kn

When P = 150, n = 15 (Substitute these values in the given equation)

150 = k * 15

Divide both sides by 15

\frac{150}{15} = \frac{k * 15}{15}

10 = k\\k = 10

Substitute k = 10 in P = kn

P = 10 * n

P = 10n ------- Equation that relates P and n

When she sold 4 necklaces, n = 4

Substitute n = 4 in the formula above

P = 10 * 4

P = 40
