It would take him 2.5 hrs because when you divide 10 by 4 that's what you get
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
p ----> the price of a watermelon in dollars
w ---> the weight of a watermelon in pounds
In this problem we have a proportional relationship
Remember that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form
or
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin
In this problem
The value of the constant of proportionality k is the same that the unit rate
Find out the unit rate
Divide the total cost by the total weight

substitute in the equation
I think you are missing part of the problem. If you had another equation or a value for x you could solve it.

Answer:
24 - X = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Mai's water bottle had 24 ounces in it. After she drank x ounces of water, there were 10 ounces left, in order to determine the equation that represents this situation, the following reasoning has to be made:
Since the bottle has 24 ounces of liquid, that is its initial content, from which an amount X is subtracted, after which 10 ounces of water remain. That is, 24 - X = 10.
Thus, this equation is solved in the following way:
24 - X = 10
24 = 10 + X
24 - 10 = X
14 = X
