49 more than the quotient of an unknown number and 12 is 53. What is the value of the unknown number?

1 answer:

4 0

Unknown = x

the quotient of x and 12 is x/12 than 49 more than that is 53,
(x/12)+49=53, now use basic math and solve

-49 from both side,
x/12=4

*12 to both side,
x=48

therefore the unknown number is 48

navik [9.2K]

Time spent babysitting by Lucy = Tl = 4 hours

Time spent babysitting by Maria = Tm = x * 4 hours

Now we need to determine for what values of x is Tm > Tl

⇒ x * 4 > 4

⇒ x > 1

So for x > 1, Mary spends more time babysitting than Lucy does

Micah and Linda are 230 feet apart when they start walking toward one another. Linda walks twice as fast as Micah so whenever Mi

Answer:

D(x) = 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Micah travels at a rate of 'x' feet over a specific period.

Linda travels at a rate of '2x' feet over that same period.

Since they are walking in opposite directions, the total distance they have walked towards one another (D) can be determined by adding both distances:

$D(x) = x+2x\\D(x) = 3x$

The expression that describes the number of feet they have walked toward one another is D(x) = 3x.
