So first I saw that u need 1 adult with every 6 children so I did 6*4 and got 24. From that I got 4 adults with 2 leftover children. For the other class which has 28 children, u would still need 4 adults. Now since u said the teacher is included as an adult only 3 more are needed for the trip, and that is your answer.
A student uses the ratio of 4 oranges to 6 fluid ounces to find the number of oranges needed to make 24 fluid ounces of juice. The student writes the proportion:4/6=24/16
R=number of hours ruby worked
i=number of hours issac worked
s=number of hours shetland worked
ruby worked 8 more than issac
r=8+i
shetland worked 4 times as many as ruby
s=4r
total they worked 136
r+i+s=136
so
we gots
r=8+i
s=4r
for r=8+i
solve for i
minus 8 both sides
r-8=i
so
r+i+s=136
subsitute r-8 for i and 4r for s
r+r-8+4r=136
6r-8=136
add 8 to both sides
6r=144
divide both sides by 6
r=24
sub back
r-8=i
24-8=i
16=i
s=4r
s=4(24)
s=96
ruby worked 24 hours
issac worked 16 hours
shetland worked 96 hours
Answer:
0.857 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the information provided we can create the following equations for the total amount Mallory (M) and Aimee (A) will save after x number of weeks...
M = 35 + 15x
A = 5 + 50x
Now we would need to make both of these equations equal one another and solve for x to calculate after how many week both Aimee and Mallory will have saved the same amount of money
35 + 15x = 5 + 50x ... subtract 5 and 15x from both sides
30 = 35x ... divide both sides by 35
or 0.857 = x
Finally, we can see that after 0.857 weeks both Mallory and Aimee will have saved the same amount of money.
*** The process provided is correct but I believe that the actual values for Aimees savings should be $50 and plans to save $5 a week, this would make the final result 1.5 weeks which would make more sense***
