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

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1:

First do the operation inside parenthesis

2*(4-3) = 2*1 = 2

Method 2:

Use distributive property: a*(b +c) = a*b + a*c

2*(4-3) = 2*4 - 2*3

           = 8 - 6

Answer:

Area of the shaded region = 1.72r²

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius of the circle = r

Length of the rectangle = 4r

Width of the rectangle = 2r

Area of the circle = πr²

Area of the rectangle = Length × Width

= 4r × 2r

= 8r²

Area of the shaded region = Area of the rectangle - 2 × Area of the circle

= 8r² - 2 × πr²

= 8r² - 2πr²

= r²(8 - 2π)

= r²(8 - 2 × 3.14)

= r²(8 - 6.28)

= 1.72r²
