Answer:
-4.2
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5 - 4.7= -4.2
We can put this information into two equations:
7 booklets = 140 stamps
3 booklets = 60 stamps
Let us then focus on one equation to find the relationship:
7 booklets = 140 stamps
If we put that into a fraction, we get
or
.
This means that for every booklet, Ashley gets 20 stamps; or rather, each booklet has 20 stamps.
We can then see that this relationship holds true for the second equation as well:
or
.
To write a general equation for this relationship using
p for the number of postage stamps, and
b for the number of booklets:
p = 20b
Where
b is equal to
p.
It is B. Nikita used the wrong measurements when finding the area of the base. Please give a like. I Promise this is correct and if its not you can yell at me and all that! :)
Let the hamburgers be x and cheese burgers be y.
x + y = 24
3x + 3.5 y = 79
x = 24 - y.
Substituting the value of x,
3( 24 - y) + 3.5 y = 79
72- 3y + 3.5 y = 79
72 + 0.5 y = 79
0.5y = 79 - 72 = 7
1/2 y = 7
thus, y = 7 * 2 = 14
Substituting the value for x,
x + y = 24
x + 14 = 24
x = 24-14 = 10
Thus, x = 10.
Thus, she sold 10 hamburgers and 14 cheeseburgers
