<h2><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

Jessica sells = 240 books,

Josh sells = 16 books.

<h3>Given:-</h3>

The price of one book is = $15

Jessica sold 15 times more books than Josh.

In total, they have sold 256 books.

<h3>Solution:-</h3>

We can easily find the answer using variables.

Let,

Josh sold a total of x books whereas Jessica sold a total number of 15x books.

together they sold 16x books.

So we can form the equation

16x= 256

by solving this equation we will get x=16

So, Josh sold 16 books and Jessica sold 16×15=240 books in total.

LaTanya leaves her house at 12:30pm and bikes at 12 mi/h to marta’s House she stays at marta’s House for 90mij both girls walk b
babymother [125]

Answer:

2.9 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

The time difference t between 12.30pm and 3.30pm is 3h.

Let the distance to Marat's house be s.

The equation to calculate velocity v is given by:

v = distance / time.

Now you can write an equation for the time difference t and use the two velocities and the 90 min(= 1.5h) she stays:

3 = s/12 + 1.5 + s/2.3

Solve this equation for s:

(1/12 + 10/23)* s = 1.5

s = 2.9

The summary of the ruler placement postulate is given as:

  • there is a one-to-one correspondence between the set of points on the line and the set of real numbers, and.
  • the distance between two points equals the absolute value of the difference between the corresponding numbers.

<h3>What is the ruler placement postulate?</h3>

This states that the points of a line can be matched and correspond to a set of points on the line and the set of real numbers,

Therefore, based on the fact that your question is incomplete, a general overview of the ruler placement postulate is given to give you a better understanding of the concept.
