1. x = 15120/12 = 1260 (monthly salary)
2. 1200 x 0.05 = 60 (raise)
Check: 1200+60=1260
Answer:
Student A and Student B both answered 2 questions correctly.
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: that answers in the form:

ARE ALL EQUIVALENT.
First of all, 4/5 is equivalent to 0.8 if we do long division.
and 19/20 is 0.95 if we do long division.
Now, <u>Student A:</u>
Both of the fractions are correct and the negative sign is equivalent and makes the answer correct, so both are correct.
For <u>Student B:</u>
Similarly, both answers are correct for this student as well, looking at the equivalence we showed first.
Also, "-" (negative) in front of the parenthesis and inside parenthesis here doesn't matter.
Hence,
Student A and Student B both answered 2 questions correctly.
Answer:
The width of the pathway is:
Step-by-step explanation:
To identify the width of the pathway, you must remember the area formula of a rectangle:
- Area of a rectangle = length * width.
From which the width can be cleared:
- Width of a rectangle = area / length.
We know that the length of the terrain was not modified since the pathway is in the perimeter of the rectangle (16 m) and that the new area is 240 m^2, so we only have to replace the cleared formula:
- Width of a rectangle = 240 m^2 / 16 m = 15 m.
The new width is equal to 15 meters, but since the question is not the total width but the width of the pathway, the width of the previously provided land must be subtracted from the value obtained.
- <u>Pathway width = Total width - Garden width.
</u>
- <u>Pathway width = 15m - 8m = 7 meters.</u>
Answer: let the common multiple be x..

Answer:
A: C = 2: 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see the attached pictures for the full solution.
Further explanantion (2nd image):
The reason why the ratio of A: C is equal to the ratio if 2A: 2C is that the number of parts of A and C is equal, which is 2 parts. If I were to divide both 2A and 2C by 2 to find the ratio of A: C, I would obtain 15: 15/2. However, ratios are expressed as whole numbers and thus, we would multiply the whole ratio by 2 again and the answer would still be 30: 15. This ratio is not in the simplest form since both can be divided by 15. Thus, dividing both sides of the ratio by 15 will leave us with the final answer of
A: C= 2: 1.
☆ An alternative method is to simplify the ratio 3B: 2C at the beginning.
3B: 2C
= 36: 15
= 12: 5
Multiply the first ratio by 2 so 3B has 12 parts in both ratios:
2A: 3B
= 10: 12
Combining the 2 ratios together,
2A: 3B: 2C
= 10: 6: 5
2A: 2C
= 10: 5
= 2: 1
A: C= 2: 1
