Answer: Andrew = 20

Jimmy = 25

Richard = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of Andrew's comic books be y.

Jimmy has five more comic books than Andrew. This means Jimmy has: y+5

Richard has four times as many comic book as jimmy. This means Richard has: 4(y+5) = 4y + 20

Since there are 145 comic books together. This can be rewritten as:

y + (y+5) + (4y+20) = 145

6y+25 = 145

6y = 145 - 25

y = 120/6

y = 20

Andrew has 20 comic books

Jimmy has five more comic books than Andrew. Jimmy has: 20+5 = 25

Richard has: 4y + 20 = 4(20) + 20 = 100

GUYS please
Advocard [28]

Answer:

2.64

Step-by-step explanation:

0.9(x + 1.4) - 2.3 + 0.1x = 1.6

0.9x + 1.26 -2.3 + 0.1x - 1.6 = 0

(0.9x + 0.1x) + (1.26 - 2.3 - 1.6) = 0  

x - 2.64 = 0

x = 2.64
