I will give you the simple version, if it takes 30 min for the brother to clean and the sister takes 20 minites to mess it up before he cleaned, then the sister messed the room up for 30 min because 30x2= 60.

The rate of Glenn in finishing a job would be equivalent to:

Rate (G) = 1 job / 20 minutes

While the rate of Veronika is:

<span>Rate (V) = 1 job / x                 ---> x is the unknown</span>

Where 1 job for Glenn means completely cleaning his room while 1 job for Veronika means pulling out everything. Therefore the equation to use would be:

1 / 20 – 1 / x = 1 / 60

The rate of Veronika is subtracted from the rate of Glenn since Veronika is slowing Glenn down. Solving for x:

Multiply both sides by 60 x

(1 / 20 – 1 / x = 1 / 60) * 60 x

3 x – 60 = x

2 x = 60

x = 30

<span>Therefore it takes 30 minutes for Veronika to pull everything out.</span>

There are three numbers: x, y, and z. The sum of these three numbers is 24. The second number is five times the first number. Th
dimulka [17.4K]
The three numbers are x, y, z
The sum of the three numbers = x + y + z = 24

Let the first number = x
The second number is five times the first number = y = (x + 5)
The third number is twice as much as the second number = z = 2y = 2(x + 5)

The sum of these numbers = 24
x + y + z = 24

Substituting the values of y and z in terms of x

x + (x + 5) + 2(x + 5) = 24
x + x + 5 + 2x + 10 = 24
4x + 15 = 24
4x = 24 - 15
4x = 9
x = 9 ÷ 4
x = 2.25

Therefore,
x = 2.25
y = (x + 5) = 2.25 + 5 = 7.25
z = 2(x + 5) = 2(2.25 + 5) = 2 x 7.25 = 14.5

Sum of the three numbers = x + y + z = 2.25 + 7.25 + 14.5 = 24

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

Quartiles are the values that divide a list of numbers into quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Put the numbers in order: 2, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12 13, 14, 16, 22, 45, 65. Step 2: Count how many numbers there are in your set and then divide by 4 to cut the list of numbers into quarters. There are 12 numbers in this set, so you would have 3 numbers in each quartile. Interquartile Range: 8.5.

Hope this helps :)
