Answer:

Athena weighs 6 pounds. (Zeus weighs 3 pounds).

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that A (Athena) + Z (Zeus) = 9. And we know that Zeus weighs three pounds less than Athena. Knowing this we can do
1 + 8 = 9
2 + 7 = 9
3 + 6 = 9
We can see that 6 and 3 equal 9 and 6 is 3 away from 3, getting us the answer that Athena weighs 6 pounds. :) I hope this helps! ^^

X + (X-3) = 9
2X -3 = 9
2X = 12
X = 6


X-3 = ?
6-3 = 3

One cat weighs 6 lbs and one weighs 3 lbs for total of 9 lbs. Athena weighs 6 lbs.

Two​ high-speed ferries leave at the same time from a city to go to the same island. The first​ ferry, the​ Cat, travels at 34 m
djyliett [7]

Answer:

They will be 5 miles apart in 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the time it will take for the two ferries to be 5 miles apart

Mathematically; distance = speed * time

Let the number of hours be x

In x hours, the cat will have traveled 34 * x = 34x miles

In x hours, the Bird will have traveled 29 * x = 29x miles

So;

34x - 29x = 5

5x = 5

x = 5/5

x = 1 hour
