The correct answers are:
(1) If EXACT number is required, then 7.5.
(2) If multiple of 8 is required then the answer will be 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Explanation:
First you need to express it in the form of equation to make things simpler as follows:
8 * y = 60
We need to find y; to do so, divide 60 by 8:
y = 
y = 7.5
Now if you want to find the whole number, then the answer will be 7 times, with 4 left over.
Y=(1/3)*x is the correct answer.
1/3 of -3 is -1
1/3 of 0 is 0
1/3 of 6 is 2
The bench costs $450.
You first need to subtract the difference between the garden table and the bench from the total so they are equivalent, and then divide by two to find what the bench is on its own.
(The garden table costs $536, by the way. To find that, you just need to add its half of 900, 450, to the 86 you subtracted initially.)
Tell me if this doesn’t make sense, it’s sort of hard to explain!
Every week he withdraws $35 from the $950 in his savings, and he wants at least $600 by the end of the summer. So we could write:

Where 'x' is the number of weeks. Now let's solve it for 'x'.
Subtract 950 to both sides:

Divide -35 to both sides, don't forget to switch the sign when dividing/multiplying by a negative number:

So he can only withdraw at money for at most 10 weeks if he wants at least $600 left in his account.
Answer:
Pierre is right.
Step-by-step explanation:
A growth rate of 2% means that the values is increasing by 0.02 each year so the multiplying factor is 1.02.
Pierre is correct y = 300(1.02)^x.
Scotts answer 1.2 = a growth rate of 20%.
