Y = 70x • .15
y is his total money earned.
x is how many units he sells
so if he sells 227 bikes it’s 70 • 227 which is 15,890 then times it by .15 because he makes 15% and it’s 2.383.5. so he made $2,383 50¢!

$3 for 6 bagels; $9 for 24 bagels.Determine if the rates or ratios are equivalent
Luba_88 [7]
No these are not equivelent.  24 is 4x6 so that would mean that you would have to pay $12 for those bagels and because 9 is not 3x4, 12 is making these two ratios not equivelent.

Two friends are collecting cards. Frank has 7 more than half the number of cards as his friend. Together they have 42 cards. How
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The number of cards Frank has is 18 and the number of cards his friend has is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is </em></u>

Two friends are collecting cards. Frank has 6 more than half the number of cards as his friend. Together they have 42 cards. How many cards does each friend have?

Let

x ----> the number of cards that Frank has

y ----> the number of cards that his friend has

we know that

Together they have 42 cards

x+y=42 ----> equation A

Frank has 6 more than half the number of cards as his friend

x=\frac{y}{2} +6 ---> equation B

Solve the system by substitution    

Substitute equation B in equation A

\frac{y}{2} +6+y=42

solve for y

\frac{3}{2}y=42-6\\\\\frac{3}{2}y=36\\\\y=36(2)/3=24

<em>Find the value of x</em>

x=\frac{24}{2} +6=18

therefore

The number of cards Frank has is 18 and the number of cards his friend has is 24.

For numbers 14a-14d , tell which expressions require you to rename mixed numbers before you can subtract. Find each difference.
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

14b and 14d require renaming mixed numbers; 14a) 3 3/20; 14b) 2 1/8; 14c) 1 13/24; 14d) 3 3/6 = 3 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

14a) First we find the least common denominator (LCD).  The first thing that both 5 and 4 will divide into is 20; this is our LCD.

It takes 4 5's to make 20; multiplying the numerator by 4, we have 5 8/20.  It takes 5 4's to make 20; multiplying the numerator by 5, we have 2 5/20.  Subtracting these,

5 8/20 - 2 5/20 = 3 3/20

14b) We must write the whole number 5 as a mixed number with a denominator of 8; 5 = 4 8/8.  This gives us

4 8/8 - 2 7/8 = 2 1/8

14c) The LCD of 3 and 8 is 24.  It takes 8 3's to make 24; multiplying the numerator by 8, we have 7 16/24.  It takes 3 8's to make 24; multiplying the numerator by 3, we have 6 3/24.  Subtracting we have

7 16/24 - 6 3/24 = 1 13/24.

14d) The LCD of 6 and 3 is 6.  Since the first mixed number has a denominator of 6, we leave it:  9 1/6.  It takes 2 3's to make 6; multiplying the numerator by 2, we have 5 4/6.  Subtracting we would have

9 1/6 - 5 4/6

We are subtracting a larger fraction from a smaller one.  This means we borrow a whole from the whole number, making it 8; this makes the fraction (6+1)/6 = 7/6.  This gives us

8 7/6 - 5 4/6 = 3 3/6 = 3 1/2

I don't understand number 8
Norma-Jean [14]
Let's try plugging in some negative numbers. Let's do x=-1. 5+-1=4. So we know that if we put in a negative number for x, then n will be positive. But what if we do a number greater than -5, because 5+-5=0. So let's try x=-6. So 5+(-6)=-1. Hmm. So here it is. We know that any number under -5 will be positive and any number above -5 will be negative.
