7x - 3y = 24
7x - 24 = 3y
(7x - 24) : 3 = y
(3 * 15) / 4 = 45/4 = 11....remainder 1....each grandkid gets 11 cards...equaling 44 cards....leaving 1 left for Mr. Dawson
Anwser: The hotels charge for a call is the same for a 20 minute call.
Step-by-step explanation:
Alrighty, same deal as the last problem, set up a equality, it should look like this:
$1+.80x=$2+.75x
Move the variable to the left of the equation:
.80x-.75x=2-1
Simplify
.05x=1
x=20
Answer: Mike bought 120 pounds of fish and Millie bought 30 pounds of fish.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio is 8 to 2 then 8/10 will be the probability of Mike buying fist and 2/10 will be the probability of Millie buying fish.
Now multiply each fraction by the total number of pounds to find how many pounds each bought.
8/10 * 150 = 1200/10 = 120
2/10 * 150 = 300/10 = 30
In this case, Mike bought 120 pounds of fish and Millie bought 30 pounds of fish.
