X = Ryan’s weight
X + 18 = Steve’s weight
144 = total weight for both

X + X + 18 = 144 ( equation)
2X = 144 -18 (group your equation)
2X/2 = 126/2 (divide both sides by 2)
X = 63 ( Ryan’s age)
X + 18 = 81 ( Steve’s age)

Andy needs to subtract cost from the service revenue.

<h3>What does Andy need to subtract?</h3>

Revenue is the total income earned before any deductions are made. Net income is the total revenue less total expenses or cost.

Net income = total revenue - cost

For example, if a company sold 100 loaves of bread for $100 dollars. The cost of making the bread is $50. The revenue is $100 and the net income is $50 (100 - 50).

a conical tent is made of canvas that has a base that is 34 feet across and a slant height of 12 feet to the nearest whole unit

kogti [31]

The lateral area is π r ℓ units²

The base is 20 feet across so the radius is 10 feet 

Multiply 3.14 × 10 × 14 

3.14 × 10 = 31.4 

31.4 × 14 = 31.4 × 10 + 31.4 × 4 
= 314 + 120 + 4 + 1.6 
= 434 + 5.6 
= 439.6

In an automobile parts factory, for every 175 carburetors 3 are found to be defective. At that rate how many carbureatots out of

Furkat [3]

Answer:

At the same rate 18 carburetors out of 1,050 could be expected to be detective.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of carburetors tested = 175

Defective pieces out o f 175 = 3

So, ratio of defected to tested = 3 : 175

Now, the number of carburetors tested in second batch = 1,050

Here, let the defective pieces = m

So, by the Ratio of Proportion,

$\frac{3}{175} = \frac{m}{1050}$

or, $m = \frac{1050 \times 3}{175} = 18$

⇒ m = 18

Hence, at the same rate 18 carburetors out of 1,050 could be expected to be detective.
