Answer:

158 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation. J = JACK and S = SALLY

2s+25 = Jack

Jack + Sally = 225

2s+25+s = 225

3s+25 = 225

3s = 200

s = 66 2/3

66 2/3*2 = 133 1/3

133 1/3 + 25 = 158 1/3

Jack's weight if together they weigh 225 pounds will be 158(¹/₃).

<h3>
What is an expression?</h3>

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping can all be represented by mathematical symbols, which can also be used to indicate the logical syntax's order of operations and other features.

Given that Jack's weight is 25 pounds more than twice Sally's weight and the total weight is 225 pounds.

Create an equation. J = JACK and S = SALLY

2s+25 = Jack

Jack + Sally = 225

2s+25+s = 225

3s+25 = 225

3s = 200

s = 66(²/₃)

66(²/₃) x 2 = 133( ¹/₃)

133( ¹/₃) + 25 = 158( ¹/₃)

Therefore, Jack's weight if together they weigh 225 pounds will be 158(¹/₃).

There are several ways that can help someone recover after they are injured. After the injury occurs, it is best to go to the doctor or hospital to get the injury, if need be, checked on or fixed. Another thing that can help is if the person rests and does not do any heavy-lifting or do to many activities that can strain the injury. After an injury occurs, if you do not rest there is more of a likelihood that you can damage it more and also rest helps the body heal. There are also several medicine's that are meant to help relieve pain after an injury occurs.

Hope it helps.

I'm assuming you would plug in the miles, in this case leaving you with the equation y=3(26.5)+5.5 which equals 85. So i'm assuming your answer would be 85 min.

Vilka [71]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of people in the chorus are 50 or older is as follows

According to the attached figure

In the age of 50 - 60 , there is 8 people

In the age of 60 - 70 , there is 4 people

In the age of 70 -80, there is 1 people

So, if we do the total that comes

= 8 people + 4 people + 1 people

= 13 people

Hence, the no of people would be 13
