Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 goes into 1 1/2 3 times
Answer:
y = 11/20
Step-by-step explanation:
-4/5 + y = -1/4
Add 4/5 to each side
-4/5 +4/5 + y = -1/4+4/5
y = -1/4 + 4/5
Get a common denominator
y = -1/4 *5/5 + 4/5 *4/4
y = -5/20 + 16/20
y = 11/20
Check
-4/5 +11/20 = -1/4
Get a common denominator
-4/5*4/4 + 11/20 = -1/4*5/5
-16/20 +11/20 = -5/20
-5/20 = - 5/20
Check
108 = ( x)(48-x)
108 = 48x - x^2
48x -x^2 -108 = 0
I'm assuming you're doing solve the square right now, so you should be able to do the rest.
Answer: the old price for 1 liter is $0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the old price for 1 liter of petrol.
Last week a man bought 20 liters at the old price. This means that the total amount that the man paid for 20 liters is 20x.
The cost of petrol rises by 2 cents a liter. This means that the new price per liter is x + 2/100 = x + 0.02
This week he bought 10 liters at the new price. This means that the total amount that the man paid for 10 liters is
10(x + 0.02)
= 10x + 0.2
Altogether, the petrol costs $9.20. This means that
20x + 10x + 0.2 = 9.2
30x + 0.2 = 9.2
30x = 9.2 - 0.2
30x = 9
x = 9/30
x = 0.3
The answer is 17
hope this helps:)
