4 0

Answer:

total = 96 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

sweets shared in the ratio 4 : 5 : 7 = 4x : 5x : 7x ( x is a multiplier )

Seth got 18 more sweets than Frank , that is

7x = 4x + 18 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

3x = 18 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 6

Then

total = 4x + 5x + 7x = 16x = 16 × 6 = 96 sweets

If an airplane descends 15 feet every 1.45 seconds, how far would the airplane travel in three and a half minutes? The equation

NemiM [27]

$\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}$

Here we go ~

The air plane descends 15 feels every 1.45 seconds, so it's unit rate is :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{15}{1.45} \: \: ft / sec$

Now we have to calculate the descent in 3.5 minutes ~

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{15}{1.45} \: \: \times 3.5 \times 60$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 2172.41 \: \: ft$

So, the airplane descends 2172.41 feels in three and a half minutes ~
