Answer:

Sweater =400 grams

Hat =80 grams

Scarf =75 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of wool used to make a sweater, a hat and a scarf=555 grams

Let the amount of wool used to make a sweater be = x

The amount of wool for the sweater =x/5

The amount of wool used for the scarf=x/5 -5

Total amount of wool used = x+(x/5)+(x/5-5)

x+x/5 +x/5-5=555

Multiply all through by the LCM 5

5x+x+x-25=2775

7x=2800

x=400

Sweater =400 grams

Hat=400/5=80 grams

Scarf =400/5 -5=75 grams

The rate to convert yards to meters is

1 \text{ yard}=0.9144\text{ meters}

So, if you multiply both sides by 8, you get

8 \text{ yards} = 8\times 0.9144 = 7.3152 \text{ meters}

To round the answer to the nearest tenth, we need to choose between 7.3 and 7.4. Since the hundreths digit is 1, which is less than 5, 7.3 is nearest to 7.3152 than 7.4, so the correct answer is 7.3

A repair bill for a car is $648.45. The parts cost $265.95. The labor cost is $85 per hour. Write and solve an equation to find
zysi [14]

Answer:

( t - p ) /  85x =  h

( t - 265.95 ) /  85x  = h

648.45 - 265.95 / 85x = 3.32h

h = 3.32

Therefore ( t - p ) /  85x =  3.32

Step-by-step explanation:

648.45 - 265.95

282.50 /85

= 3.32 hrs

Finding equation to find hours can be shown as

( t - p ) /  85x =  3.32

How we found equation to find total

Parts = 19 x 14 - 5/100 = 266- 0.05

648.45 - 265.95 = 282.5

282.5/85 = 3.323  near to 3,233529

Labour = 85x  = 17 (5 + x)

Equation = 17(5+ x) + 14(19) - 5/100 = 648.45 where x = 85

Equation = ( 85x x 3  1/3) + 265 - 19/20 = t
