Answer:

2700.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance would be 2700.

Distance traveled between in 6th second and 12th second is 2430-2160=270 meter. That means Superman covered 270 meter in 6 seconds.

So, now if he is moving at the same speed, he should cover the same distance in first 6 seconds which is 270 meter.

Suppose the whole distance is X when time is 0, and after flying for 6 seconds he now is 2430 meter away. It means that he must have covered the distance of X-2430=270.

Finding for X, we gets the full initial distance, when time was 0.

The simple trick is, once we get the distance he has covered in 6 seconds, we can form the equation like subtracting the whole distance- remaining distance equals to covered distance.

Juan brought 4 Tshirts and leather jacket. The T shirts were all the same price, and the price of the leather jacket was 6 times
Alex

Let us say that:

x = the number of T shirts bought = 4

y = the number of leather jackets bought = 1

a = the price of the T shirts

b = the price of the leather jackets

 

With the given variables, we can say that the total cost is:

total cost = a x + b y

 

Since, b = 6 a, therefore:

total cost = a x + 6 a y

total cost = a (x + 6 y)

 

Since total cost is 209, therefore we can calculate for a since x and y are also given:

209 = a (4 + 6 * 1)

209 = a (10)

a = $20.9

 

<span>Therefore each T shirt cost $20.9</span>

On Monday, the high was 60oF. On Tuesday, the high was 10% more than Monday. Then on Wednesday, the temperature decrease by 8%.
Arada [10]

Answer:

60.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Monday: 60 degrees

Tuesday: temperature increases by 10 percent

60 + 10% of 60

60 + .10*60 = 70 +6 = 66

Wednesday: temperature decreases by 8 percent

66 - 8%of 66

66 - .08*66 = 66 -5.28=60.72

fredd [130]

Answer:

3 students got a perfect score.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students in Mrs. Grape's class = 90

Number of students who earned an A = 3/10 of 90

= \frac{3}{10}\times 90

= 27 students

Out of 27 students the number of students who got perfect score

= \frac{1}{9}\times 27

= 3 students

3 students got a perfect score.
