<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.) 10x-5=y

2.) $85

3.) 5.25 yards of fabric.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

1.) To write an equation for this problem, we need to figure out what every value means:

the variable x, represents the amount of yards of fabric you can buy

the variable y, represents the total amount of money after you found out (x) or the amount of yards of fabric.

1 yard of fabric equals $10, and we have a $5 coupon (-5)

Our equation is:

10x-5=y

This equation represents the relationship between the total cost of fabric, and the amount that you can buy.

2. In order to solve this problem we need to use our equation, one value is given which is 9.

9 represents x, the amount of yards of fabric.

Substitute 9 into x:

10(9)-5=y

<h3>Solve:</h3>

90-5=y

85=y

85 represents the cost of 9 yards of fabric, including the $5 coupon.

3.) This problem is similar to #2, although it's flipped.

The value given is $47.50, which represents (y), the total amount of money after (x) was found out.

But, we need to figure out (x).

Substitute $47.50 into (y):

10(x)-5=$47.50

Next, we need to figure out x by solving the opposite.

Adding the coupon to our answer can represent 10(x).

$47.50+5=52.50

10(x)=52.50

Lastly, divide both sides of the equation by 10.

10(x) / 10=52.50 /10

x=5.25

5.25 represents the amount of yards of fabric purchased if you paid $47.50.

Mr. Hughes gave 5/14
kow [346]

Answer:

His savings were of $4,200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Hughes gave 5/14 of his savings to his son, 2/3 of the remainder to his daughter, and the rest to his wife:

This means that the son and daughter amount is:

\frac{5}{14} + \frac{2}{3}(\frac{9}{14})

As \frac{9}{14} is the remained that his son did not get. So

\frac{5}{14} + \frac{2}{3}(\frac{9}{14}) = \frac{15}{42} + \frac{18}{42} = \frac{33}{42}

Fraction his wife got:

1 - \frac{33}{42} = \frac{42}{42} - \frac{33}{42} = \frac{9}{42}

If his wife got $900, what were his savings?

Total savings are x, wife got \frac{9}{42} of x. So

\frac{9x}{42} = 900

9x = 900*42

x = \frac{900*42}{9}

x = 100*42

x = 4200

His savings were of $4,200.

John has 2456 pennies in his coin collection he has the same number of pennies in each of the three boxes estimate to the neares
Keith_Richards [23]
If I read correctly, 2456 pennies needs to be divided simply by 3 then rounded to the nearest hundredth. So you would do 2456/3 3 goes into 24 how many times? Then 3 goes into 5 how many times, then continue the pattern. Once you've gotten a decimal to the thousandth, round the number to the hundredth and there you go
