we conclude that at 5:00 p.m. there are 8 more inches of snow than at 8:00 a.m.
<h3>How many more inches of snow were on the ground at 5:00 p.m. than at 8:00 a.m.?</h3>
We know that at 8:00 a.m. there were t inches of snow in the ground.
At 5:00 p.m. there were 3t inches of snow in the ground.
Then the difference between the heights of the snow is:
3t- t = 2t
And we know that at 5:00 p.m. there were 12 inches of snow then we can solve the linear equation for t:
3t = 12in
t = (12in)/3 = 4 in
Replacing that in the difference of heights:
2t = 2*4in = 8in
From this, we conclude that at 5:00 p.m. there are 8 more inches of snow than at 8:00 a.m.

Answer:
John spent around $53
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is 3x=160
Since the "x" is already by itself on one side, divide 160 by 3
160÷3=53.333⇒
Now if that's not the way IT CAN ALSO BE:
30x3+70=160! That means John spent $90
Answer:
1. 10% of the bill is $138. The final bill once 10% is taken off is $1242.
2. 20% of the total is $34.10. The final total once the 20% is taken off is $136.4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. A crash repair bill comes to $1380.00. How much is 10% of the bill? What is the final bill once 10% is taken off?
To find how much is 10% of the bill, we multiply the bill by 0.1
0.1*1380 = 138
10% of the bill is $138.
To find the final bill, we subtract the initial bill by 10%.
1380 - 138 = 1242
The final bill once 10% is taken off is $1242.
2. A person buys a new fan belt, a new alternator, and a new water pump for their car. The total comes to $170.50. What is 20% of the total? How much is the final total once the 20% is taken off?
Same logic as above.
0.2*170.50 = 34.1
20% of the total is $34.10.
170.50 - 34.1 = 136.4
The final total once the 20% is taken off is $136.4
Fractions that have the same number on the bottom have a "common denominator."
To figure out the cost for 180 packages, you must first calculate how many packages they bought for $72. Since each case holds 12 packages, for $72, the company bought 24 packages (12×2). Then you have to divide 24 into 180 to figure out the cost for those 180 packages and get 7.5. To get the cost of the 180 packages, you must multiply 7.5 (the number of 24 packages that go into 180) by 72 (the cost of one group of 24 packages). You then get 540. The company must pay $540 for the 180 packages.
