4 socks equal 1 pair of jeans
2 pairs of jeans equal 3 pairs of shoes
6 pairs of shoes equal 1 coat
Since 1 pair of jeans equals 4 socks, 2 jeans amount to 8 socks.
That means 8 socks correspond to 3 shoes.
If 3 shoes equal 8 socks, then 6 shoes would equal 16 socks.
Therefore, 16 socks are equivalent to 1 coat.
By this logic, 64 socks would translate to 64 divided by 16, which equals 4 coats.
To determine the result of multiplying 0.003 by 10, you will simply multiply as such. A straightforward method is to shift the decimal point one place to the right (it would shift two places for multiplying by 100, and three for 1000, etc.). The same rule applies when dividing; just ensure to move left instead.
Hence, the result is 0.03.

Let’s define x as the amount invested by Sam in the first year.
Here are the corresponding expressions derived from the provided descriptions for Sam's investments.
For Sam:
2nd year: investment = 5x/2 - 2000
3rd year: investment = x/5 + 1000
The total Sam invested is:
x + (5x/2 - 2000) + (x/5 + 1000)
Next, we can form the expressions for Sally’s investments.
For Sally
1st year: investment = 3x/2 - 1000
2nd year: investment = 2x - 1500
3rd year: investment = x/4 + 1400
Thus, Sally's total investment is,
total = (3x/2 - 1000) + (2x - 1500) + (x/4 + 1400)
Setting both totals equal gives us:
(x) + (5x/2 - 2000) + (x/5 + 1000) = (3x/2 - 1000) + (2x - 1500) + (x/4 + 1400)
Solving for x,
x = 2000
For Sally's investment for the third year:
investment = x/4 + 1400 = (2000/4 + 1400) = 1900
RESULTS:
Sam's first year = $2000
Sally's third year = $1900
Answer:
Her age is 40 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Jerry's age be represented as j
Let Marjorie's age be denoted as m
The first part of the question states:
j = 4 + m/2
For the second equation:
m = 3j - 32
Multiply the first equation by 2 to get:
2j = 8 + m
Leading to m = 2j - 8
Set both equations for m equal to each other:
2j - 8 = 3j - 32
By simplifying, we get:
3j - 2j = 32 - 8
Therefore, j = 24
Now substituting back:
m = 2j - 8
m = 2(24) - 8
Thus, m = 48 - 8
Final result: m = 40
C. Anya employed an incorrect formula. The correct formula must reflect the change in the y-values in relation to the change in the x-values.
