Answer:

(3x - 8) pounds of gravel was used to cover the bottom of sinks, where x is the weight of bag of gravel.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

In order to answer this question we need to make the following assumption

Let x pound be the weight of one bag of gravel.

Total number of bags of gravel bought by Kevin = 3

Weight of 3 bags of gravel = 3x pounds

Amount of gravel left after pouring = 8 pounds

Amount of gravel used to cover the bottom of sink =

Formula:

\text{Amount of gravel used to cover the bottom of sink} = \\\text{Amount of gravel bought} - \text{Amount of gravel left}\\= 3x -8

Thus, (3x - 8) pounds of gravel was used to cover the bottom of sinks.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

OMG! Don't do that! I am so sorry this is happening to you. Look I don't know how to comfort you. IF he keeps doing this tell your mom or litterally call 911. If he did it just on that day then try confronting him on it. And ask him why he did that! Don't self-harm you deserve so much more than that! You are awesome!

Answer:
5X + 8Y >= 300; intersection at (-20, 50)
Step-by-step explanation:
let t = work hours
0 < t < 30
X = time lawn mowing
Y = time babysitting.
X + Y < 30
5X + 8Y >= 300
We could solve...
X < 30 - Y
5(30 - Y) + 8Y >=300
150 - 5Y + 8Y >= 300
3Y >=150
Y >=50
then X < -20
intersection at (-20, 50)
