Where 1/4 represents Bob and 1/6 represents Ted...
1/4x + 1/6x = 1
Multiply the two so there is no fraction by the GCF of 12. 
3x + 2x = 12
Add 3x and 2x.
5x = 12
Divide by 5.
x = 12
Plug this value in.
With that, the answer is 2 hours and 24 minutes with x = 12 meaning 144 minutes.

Reptile [31]

Answer:

1352

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we get the percentage growth last year. This is calculated as:

(1300-1250)/1250 * 100

= 4%

Now, we are assuming the growth rate is constant. So let’s calculate a 4% growth rate for this year. That would be:

4/100 * 1,300 = 52

The population this year would thus be 1300 + 52 = 1352
