Answer: 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Lindsay and Lorraine are trying to match the jump rope world record.
Number of jumps they need to jump together in a row = 48
Lindsay has gotten 14 jumps in a row, and Lorraine has gotten 13.
Total jumps = 14+13=27
Let 'j' be the number of more jumps they need to match the record.
j= Total jumps needed - Total jumps they already gotten
⇒ j= 48-27
⇒ j= 21
Hence, they need 21 more jumps to match the record.
Answer: n=3
Step-by-step explanation:
6n-10=8
6n=18
n=3
You start by adding 10 to both sides and then divide both sides by 6.
60+-90x would be equivalent.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
A is not a polynomial as the power of x is less than one
Let there be 2x science and 5x art books
<span>science books sold = 2x × 0.2 = 0.4x </span>
<span>science books unsold = 2x – 0.4x = 1.6x </span>
<span>art books sold = 5x × 0.2 = x </span>
<span>art books unsold = 5x – x = 4x </span>
<span>total books unsold = 1.6x + 4x = 5.6x </span>
<span>5.6x = 2240 </span>
<span>x = 400 </span>
<span>2x science = 800 </span>
<span>and 5x art books = 2000 </span>
