No because the numbers in the given ratio must be multiplied by the same number. (The third choice)
solution:
Let x = amount of money gary and henry brought for shopping
x-95=Gary's remaining money
x-350=Henry's remaining money
(4/7)˚(x-95) = x-350
4x -380/7 = x-350
4x – 380 = 7x -2450
3x – 2070 = 0
3x = 2070
X = 690
Gary's money = 690-95=$595
1.35/12=0.1125, rounds to about $0.11.
Each pencil was about $0.11.
N is a variable in algebra. Variables are letters that represent unknown numbers. Variables can be any letter of the alphabet.
Here's how to use n in an algebraic equation:
5 + n = 12
To find what N represents, let it be the only thing on the left side of the variable:
5 -5 + n = 12 - 5
n = 7
