During the 9 mile hike he spends 2 periods of half hour swimming = 1 hour.
actual hiking time = 3*3 = 9 hours
So total time = 9+1 = 10 hours
The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable.
We have then:
x: weight of each pallet with cement
We then have the following equation:
16x = 4856
Clearing x we have:
x = (4856) / (16)
x = 303.5 punds
Answer:
each pallet with cement weigh:
x = 303.5 punds
Answer: 23.4 is the answer
Ok first find out what it will cost after the 30% discount
18*.30=
$5.40 discount
$18.00-$5.40=
$12.60
Now lets figure out the sales tax
$12.60*.06=
76 cents
total price including tax is $13.36
-10 and -1 multiply to get 10 and add to get -11
