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

Answer:

adjust city gallons to 3 gallons and freeway to 7 gallons

make your line in the chart:

3   |  10-3 = 7   |   3(25) = 75   |   7(40) = 280   |   75 =280 =355   |   355   |   yes

Step-by-step explanation:

x = city gallons

y = freeway gallons

x+y = 10        then y = 10-x

25x+40y = 355

substitute for y

25x+40(10-x) = 355

25x+400-40x = 355

-15x+400 = 355

subtract 400 from each side

-15x = -45

divide both sides by -15

-15x/-15 = -45/-15

x = 3 gallons

y = 7 gallons
