Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

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.

<span>science books sold = 2x × 0.2 = 0.4x </span>
<span>science books unsold = 2x – 0.4x = 1.6x </span>
