we have paul and jennifer typing speed as 60 words per minute and 80 words per minute.

here we have to identify how do we compare both of these quantities

we need to use ratios.let assume that paul typing speed is a and jennifer typing speed is b

so the ratio is a:b=a/b.

60:80=60/80=3:4.

WE can see :

speed of paul' speed = 60 words per minute

speed of jennifer = 80 word per minute

as jennifer is typing more words than paul we can say that jennifer's spped is greater than paul's sped .

Let us now compare them

we find the difference of their speed

speed of Jennifer - speed of Paul

80 - 60 = 20 word

so we can say Jennifer is 20 word per minute faster than Paul .

Which contract costs more per month? An 18 month cable contract for $2070 or a 12 month contract at $1776? Which is the better d
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Contract A is cheaper because $115 per month is less than $148 per month

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit price we divide the total cost given by the total months given for each contract to find out the cost per month.

$2070/18 months = $115 per month

$1776/12 months = $148 per month

Contract A is cheaper because $115 per month is less than $148 per month

A mother is 26 years older than her daughter. The daughter is one-third her mother's age. How old is each now? When will the mot
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

  • now: daughter: 13, mother: 39
  • then: daughter: 26, mother: 52

Step-by-step explanation:

If the daughter's age is 1/3 the mother's age, the difference in their ages is ...

  1-1/3 = 2/3

the mother's age. The daughter's age is half that (1/3 the mother's age), so the daughter's age is 26/2 = 13 years. The mother's age is 13+26 = 39 years, which is 3 times the daughter's age.

The daughter is 13 now; the mother is 39.

__

When the mother is twice as old, the daughter's age will be equal to their age difference: 26. The mother's age will be 26 +26 = 52

When the mother is twice as old, she will be 52, and the daughter will be 26.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

You can assign variables and write equations that will give you the same result. If you let d and m represent the daughter's age and the mother's age, respectively, you could write the system ...

  m = d +26

  d = m/3

Substituting for d, you get ...

  m = m/3 +26

  2/3m = 26 . . . . . . subtract m/3

Note that this is the relationship we came to in the discussion above.

__

When an age difference is given, you know it will remain the same throughout the problem. Everybody ages at the same rate, so the difference is constant. As we have done above, it is often useful to compare the age difference to the difference in ratio units. This tells you the size of a ratio unit.
