Answer:

51 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that for every 15 minutes of a show, there are two minutes to commercial. At this rate, Leila has seen 45 minutes of a show. We are asked to find the time for which Leila has been watching TV.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

\frac{\text{Minutes of TV show + Advertisement}}{\text{Minutes of TV show}}=\frac{15+2}{15}

\frac{\text{Minutes of TV show + Advertisement}}{\text{Minutes of TV show}}=\frac{17}{15}  

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

\frac{\text{Minutes of TV show + Advertisement}}{45}=\frac{17}{15}

\frac{\text{Minutes of TV show + Advertisement}}{45}\times 45=\frac{17}{15}\times 45

\text{Minutes of TV show + Advertisement}=\frac{17}{1}\times 3

\text{Minutes of TV show + Advertisement}=51

Therefore, Leila has been watching TV together for 51 minutes.

The number of messages Kaitlyn, Tony and Austin sent are 13, 18 and 72 messages respectively.

<h3>How to write and solve equation?</h3>

let

  • Number of messages Kaitlyn sent = x
  • Number of messages Tony sent = x + 5
  • Number of messages Austin sent = 4(x + 5)
  • Total messages = 103

103 = x + (x + 5) + 4(x + 5)

103 = x + x + 5 + 4x + 20

103 = 6x + 25

103 - 25 = 6x

78 = 6x

x = 78/6

x = 13

Number of messages each sent:

Number of messages Kaitlyn sent = x

= 13 messages

Number of messages Tony sent = x + 5

= 13 + 5

= 18 messages

Number of messages Austin sent = 4(x + 5)

= 4(13 + 5)

= 4(18)

= 72 messages
