1/4a + 1/3a +8 =22

1st step add like terms:

1/4a +1/3a = 3/12a +4/12a = 7/12a

7/12a +8 =22

2nd step subtract 8 from each side:

7/12a = 14

3rd step divide both sides by 7/12 to get a:

a = 14 / 7/12

a = 24

Robert should get D. 8281.25 pesos in exchange.

Explanation:

Robert is bringing 625 U.S. dollars with him to Mexico. He needs to exchange the money he has with him to Mexico's currency i.e. from U.S. dollars to Mexican pesos.
The exchange rate is 13.25 Mexican pesos for each U.S. dollar. So 1 U.S. dollar = 13.25 Mexican pesos.
So to calculate how much 625 U.S. dollars is in pesos we multiply 625 with the exchange rate i.e. 13.25 pesos 625 U.S dollars = 625 × 13.25 = 8281.25 Mexican pesos.

The rubber track for a toy digger goes around four circular wheels of diameter 8 cm, as shown. (b) Calculate the length of the r

Alika [10]

Answer:

73.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the drawing, the rubber track is in black and the wheels are in light gray.

As we can see in the figure, the rubber track will have a length of two halfs of a circunference of radius 8 cm plus six diameters of 8 cm. So the total length is:

Length of rubber track = pi * 8 + 6 * 8 = 25.13 + 48 = 73.133 cm

Rounding to one decimal place, we have that the length is 73.1 cm
