Let me help you visualize this one.

Let's say we have 12 chickens.

OOOOOOOOOOOO

We divide this group in half (1/2 who tried to cross the road.)

OOOOOO

And here, we need to get 3/4 of the 6 left.

3/4 can be represented as 0.75 of 1.

6 times 0.75 equals to 4.5.

OOOOC (Woah, that chicken is split in half!)

What fraction is 4.5 of the original amount?

Well, that's for you to find out! Good luck in solving this question.

The total cost of an item including sales tax is directly proportional to its price. If the total cost of a $32 item is $33.60 ,
pav-90 [236]
Let the total cost of the item be represented by C and the price be represented by P, then given that t<span>he total cost of an item including sales tax is directly proportional to its price, thus</span>

C\propto P \\  \\ \Rightarrow C=kP

where k is a constant.

Given that <span>the total cost of a $32 item is $33.60, thus

33.60=32k \\  \\ \Rightarrow k= \frac{33.60}{32} =1.05

Therefore, the total cost on a $55 item is given by

C=1.05\times55=\$57.75</span>

Jeremiah and Tristan work at a dry cleaners ironing shirts. Jeremiah can iron 35 shirts per hour, and Tristan can iron 20 shirts
laiz [17]

The number of hours Jeremiah ironed = 10 hours

The number of hours Tristan ironed = 7 hours

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • Jeremiah can iron = 35 shirts per hour
  • Tristan can iron = 20 shirts per hour
  • Total work done by both = 490 shirts

Let 'x' be the number of hours Jeremiah ironed.

Let 'y' be the number of hours Tristan ironed.

x+y = 17   ------(1)

35x + 20y = 490  -------(2)

Multiply (1) by 20 and subtract (2) from (1),

 20x + 20y = 340

-(<u>35x + 20y = 490</u>)

 <u>-15x         = -150 </u>

x = 150/15

x = 10

Substitute x=10 in (1)

10+y = 17

y = 7
