Mr.Mason takes two-thirds of his body weight and drinks that amount of gatorade in ounces per day. If Mr.Mason drinks 118 ounces

denis-greek [22]

The total weight of Mason is 177

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, Mr.Mason takes two-thirds of his body weight and drinks that amount of gatorade in ounces per day

Mr.Mason drinks 118 ounces each day

Let "x" be the total weight of Mr.Mason

Therefore, we can say,

Two third of body weight = Amount of gatorade drank in ounces per day

Two third of x = 118

$\frac{2}{3} \text{ of } = 118\\\\\frac{2}{3} \times x = 118\\\\2x = 118 \times 3\\\\2x = 354\\\\x = \frac{354}{2}\\\\x = 177$

Thus total weight of Mason is 177

Elise and her dad are planning to attend the state fair. An adult ticket is $21.00. The price of an adult ticket is $10.00 more

solong [7]

Answer:

C. two thirds x + 10 = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price of adult ticket = $21.00

Let x be the price of student ticket

Then

two third of the student ticket will be:

$\frac{2}{3} x$

The statement $10.00 more than two third of student ticket:

$\frac{2}{3} x+10$

As we are given in the question that the adult ticket price is $21.00 and the second explanation is th equation formed by the given statement

So, both will be equivalent

$\frac{2}{3} x+10 = 21$

Solving this equation for x will give us the price for the student ticket.

Hence,

C. two thirdsx + 10 = 21 is the correct answer ..

ExtremeBDS [4]

The number of eats of corn which have been picked is; 16.9 corns.

<h3>How many eats of corn have been picked?</h3>

Hence, it follows that the number of corns which corresponds to 19 peppers been picked can be evaluated as follows;

16/18 = x/19

x = (19×16)/18

x = 16.9 eats of corn.
