Answer: 4 brothers and 3 sisters for a total of 7 siblings
Step-by-step explanation:
Let No. of boys = x
Let No. of girls = y
<u>Each boy has as many brothers as sisters</u>
Hence, (x - 1) = y
Rearranging we get,
x - y = 1 ……….(1)
<u>Now, each girl has twice as many brothers as that of sisters</u>
Hence, 2 * (y - 1) = x
Solving the bracket we get, 2y - 2 = x
Rearranging we get,
-x + 2y = 2 ……….(2)
Adding (1) and (2) using the elimination method, we get
x - y = 1
-x + 2y = 2
<u>y = 3</u>
Substituting value of Y in equation (1),
x - 3 = 1
Solving this we get,
x = 4
Thus, No. of Boys = 4, No. of Girls = 3 and No. of Siblings in the family = 7
Answer:
72 units³
Step-by-step explanation:
length = 12 units
height = 4 units
width = 3 units (8 - 5 = 3)
12 x 3 x 4 = 144
144 / 2 = 72
Answer:
11 rides
Step-by-step explanation:
let the total amount be y
and let the number of ride be x
the expression for the situation is y=mx+c
given
total amount=$28
admission fee= $6
cost per ride=$2
we are expected to find x
substitute into the expression we have
28=2x+6
28-6=2x
22=2x
divide boths sides by 2 we have
x=22/2
x=11
the number of rides is 11
10 minutes. You see the dip or the part of the graph where it's lower than the other points? Look at how many minutes went past.
