You have a summer job running errands for a local business. you earn 12.25 per day, plus $1.50 for each errand. write and solve an equation to find how many errands you need to run to earn $45.00 in one day.

Hello!

You have already earned 12.25 dollars. So now, you need to earn $31.75. If each errand is $1.50, you can divide $31.75 by $1.50. You would get roughly 21.17. Since you can not do 21 errands and .17 of an errand, you would need to do about 22 errands to get the money you need, which is the $31.75. 1.50 times 22 is equal to thirty-three, so youd be getting about a dollar and 25 cents more than what you need. We can had 33 (what we earn from our 22 errands) to 12.25, which is what we already have, and we get 45.25! So you can earn more money than you need to earn.

Hope this helps, have an awesome day!

answer: the answer is one of

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to write a proper fraction where the whole is divided into an even number of equal parts less than ten, and an odd number of those parts exist.

an even number less than 10 may be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. so, the whole may be one of these four evens.

now, an odd number of these parts must exist, so the numerator must be an odd number, one of 1, 3, 5 or 7. it cannot be 9 because then the fraction will become improper.

thus, our fraction may be one of the following
