Answer:
12 square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
let l = lance, and a = alex.
so: l + a = 70
and l = 4a
Putting the value for l in the first equation:
4a +a = 70
5a = 70
a = 14.
So Alex has 14 pencils. And Lance has (70-14) 56 pencils.
And if each child gets half of Alex' pencils, then each child will have 7 pencils.
The rate Ritz can eat apples is 8/15 apples per minute.
Set the rate (which is measured apples / minutes) equal to 16 apples / t minutes.
(8/15) = (16/t)
Cross multiply.
16*15 = 8t
t = 20
The answer is 30 minutes. You could solve the problem with basic reasoning as well. 16 is twice the number of apples as 8, so the time it takes to eat them will be double 15 minutes.
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
16 + (18 + 10) = (x + 18) + 10x
16 + 28 = (x + 18) + 10x Add like terms in the parentheses
44 = (x + 10x) + 18 Use the community property to regroup like
terms
44 = 11x + 18 Simply
<u>-18 = -18</u> Substract 18 from both side
26 = 11x Simply
<u>26</u> = <u>11x</u> Divide by 11
11 11
