3 candies are 10cents how much is it when you buy 1 and a 1/2 candies.
1 and a half is 3/2 which is easier to write on this computer

one candie costs 10 / 3 cents

so 1 and a half candies cost

(10/3) * (3/2)

5c

Who would buy a half a candie anyway?

If you put brackets in like that you will get the wrong answer.
if you enter them both as fractions you will get the correct answer

MEGUSTAMILK's answer is good if you just want an estimate.
This is how you simplify
root5 * root60
=root 300 (just as megustamilk said)
Next you have to look for a square number that goes into 300, if there isn't one then you would not be able to simplify any more.
But 100 goes into 300 and it is a square number

root 300 = root(100*3) = root100 * root3 = 10root3

Question should read

Question text
Match the description on the left with the salary per pay on the right.
1.Salary: $32,400 How much is this Weekly
2.Salary: $17,400 How much is this Monthly
3.Salary: $21,840 How much is this Biweekly
4.Salary: $24,000 How much is this Biweekly
5.Salary: $28,320 How much is this Semimonthly

These are all 'divide' questions.
Can you do them now Rosey?

Hi Rosey,
I think your real problem is with English because these questions are not that hard, especially not the first 2 questions.

1. Louis is currently earning an annual salary of $15,090 at Budget Electronics. He has been offered a job at Delta Tech at an annual salary of $16,660. How much more will Louis earn per week at Delta Tech than Budget Electronics?

Let me give you a less scary looking problem.
Louis earns $15000 every year.
He is offered a new job which will pay $16000
How much more will he get in year if he takes the new job?

I hope that you can see he will get 16000-15000 = $1000 more (it is a subtract problem)
There are 52 weeks in a year. how much extra (more) will he get each week if he gets the extra $1000 in the year?
Well that will be $1000 divided by 52

Your question is similar so i will now let you try it.

2. Sue earns a weekly salary of $350 at Howard's Department Store. Next month she will be promoted from assistant buyer to buyer. In her new position, she will be paid $895 semimonthly. How much more per year with Sue earn?
This time you will need to change each of the amounts into a yearly amount and then you can subtract.

3. Assume your present job pays a monthly gross salary of $1560. You are offered a new position that pays $8.60 per hour with time and a half for all hours over 40 per week. How many hours of overtime per week would you need to work to earn the same amount per week as your present job?
This one is harder
First work out how much will be paid at the second job if just 40 hours every week is worked. $8.60 * 40 * number of weeks in a year
Next work out how much more money needs to be earned. It will be a subtraction
Next work out how much money will be earned for 1 overtime hour at time and a half $8.60 * 1.5 = $12.90
next let x be the number of overtime hours needed.
$12.90 * x = total overtime money needed.
now solve the equation.

I hope this still reads the same when you translate it into spanish.

You said you had a better translator now. What is it? Is it a free one? I use google translator but I know it often does a poor job.

If you still need more help I will keep trying to help you.

"I just realized that what I said before was absolutely no sense, and I'm sorry! Hahaha, but yeah, if I have more questions be sure to ask me, it's hard to write in English, but it helps you get into college and stuff (: So thanks again I'll post often! With questions, because I'm to take personal finance and for me is hard."

If you are interested in studying overseas (in English) when you finish school you may like to consider Sydney, Australia. My students seemed to be happy there and I thought it was a good learning environment. Of course your English needs to be reasonable first.

You are correct to say that the 2 solutions are almost equivalent.

However, when I said that you omited half the answer I was referring to the fact that you found only 7/[2sqrt(3)] and failed to identify -7/[2sqrt(3)] as a solution.

I also think that you misused the word symmetrical, I think you meant that cosine is an even function. Which is certainly true. You have answered correctly for theta = +- (pi/6) +2pi* k (where k is an integer)

but you have ignored the answers when theta = (pi +- pi/6 ) + 2pi* k (where k is an integer)

For example If theta = 5pi/6

7sin ²theta + 3cos ²theta = 4 (first statement true)

sec theta + cos theta = -2/root3 - root3/2 = -7/(2root3)

So I repeat

sec theta+cos theta = +-( 2/root3 + root3/2) = +- [7/(2root3) ]
