Start with an equation.
Nine less... so -9
3 times a number = 3x
Greater than 40 is >40
So put together is 3x-9>40
When solving I imaging the greater than sign as an equal sign. Less confusing.
3x-9=40
3x=49
x>49/3
This question is false, there are no solutions, even if u take away the x and make it multiplication instead of a variable, still no solutions exist
If you ran 4km in 9 hours.
Then you'll run 24 km's in.
4km per 9 hours
8km per 18 hours.
12km per 26 hours.
16km per 34 hours.
20km per 40.
24km per 46.
Answer:
1.75 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to calculate how far the hike is going up the trail. They first hike 2 miles and then another 1.75 miles after resting so...
2 + 1.75 = 3.75 miles
The trail is 3.75 miles long, the question states that the return path is 0.5 miles shorter, therefore...
3.75 - 0.5 = 3.25 miles
Leaving us with a total hiking distance of
3.75 + 3.25 = 7 miles.
Since each hiker will carry 0.25 gallons for each mile we simply need to multiply this amount by the total number of miles in the hike.
7 * 0.25 = 1.75 gallons
Finally, we can see that each hiker will carry a total of 1.75 gallons of water for the entire hike.
12 red counters
7 more red counters than yellow counters
12 - 7 = 5 yellow counters
Dara has 5 yellow counters.
