The price of an item has been reduced by 95% the original price was $17

$0.85

Step-by-step explanation:

.95x17= 16.15    17.00-16.15=0.85

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!

the distance between the school and her home is 3.6km.

12 mins = 0.2 hours = 1/5 hour

54 ÷ 3 = 18km per hour

1/5 of 18 = 3.6km per 12 mins
