$3
monthly fee plus

$13.23
. For how many minutes was Felipe billed?

Answer 1

anyone?

Answer 2

You can solve this by subtracting the 3 dollars from 13.23 and then dividing by 11

Answer 3

i got a long decimal..

Answer 4

12.9572727

Answer 5

or 0.77?

Answer 6

did you convert the dollars to cents?

Answer 7

0.77 i think? right?

Answer 8

So there are how many cents in 10 dollars

Answer 9

ummm...

Answer 10

100 cents in a dollar so 100*10=?

Answer 11

1,000.

Answer 12

Good. Then add 23.

Answer 13

1,023.

Answer 14

now divide that by 11

Answer 15

93

Answer 16

Exactly. So that is how many minutes he was billed.

Answer 17

If you want to check your work just multiply 93 by 11 then add 3 dollars (300 cents) and convert back into dollars

Answer 18

yay! :D thanks so much! you think you can help me with 1 more question? then i'll be one :)

Answer 19

sure

Answer 20

ok its --- Elsa received a
$70
gift card for a coffee store. She used it in buying some coffee that cost
$7.53
per pound. After buying the coffee, she had
$39.88
left on her card. How many pounds of coffee did she buy?

Answer 21

okay so first subtract 39.88 from 70

Answer 22

this will give you how much money she spent on the coffee in total (not the answer you're looking for)

Answer 23

so 30.12?

Answer 24

yes. now divide that by 7.53 and you will have your answer!

Answer 25

ahhh ok 22.59

Answer 26

shoot. i meant 4.

Answer 27

:P

Answer 28

ugggghhh! i put 22.59 as the first answer cause I messed up. because of that they gave me another one -_-

Answer 29

pls help me till I finish this thinggg. I need to get 2 in a row correct. :s

Answer 30

next one is, Kaitlin purchased a prepaid phone card for
$25
. Long distance calls cost
24
cents a minute using this card. Kaitlin used her card only once to make a long distance call. If the remaining credit on her card is
$20.92
, how many minutes did her call last?

Answer 31

does it mean that she originally has $25 on the phone and then after the call has $20.92?

Answer 32

If so then first subtract 20.92 from 25 (like the last question)

Answer 33

yeah I think..

Answer 34

then multiply the resulting answer by 100 and then divide by 24

Answer 35

this will be your answer

Answer 36

so I got 17

Answer 37

yep. That's what I got!

Answer 38

and then, Suppose that
B
and
C
are points on the number line.
If
=BC19
and
B
lies at
−5
, where could
C
be located?
If there are several locations, separate them with commas.

Answer 39

Did you mean BC=19?

Answer 40

19 :p

Answer 41

okay then. so take -5 and since C is 19 points away subtract 19 from -5 and also add 19 to -5

Answer 42

doing this will give you the two points C could be located at

Answer 43

kinda confusing O.o

Answer 44

so what is -5-19

Answer 45

-24

Answer 46

what is -5+19

Answer 47

14

Answer 48

do you see how these 2 points, 14 and -24, are 19 points away from -5?

Answer 49

yes

Answer 50

okay so your answer is 14,-24

Don't know if there should be a space in between the comma and -24 though...

Answer 51

now it tells me to grid these... hold on let me make a drawing.
