"Jeannie is 8 years older than her younger sister April"
this translates to
J = A + 8
"added together, their ages equal 198"
this translates to
A + J = 198
Plug the first equation into this one and we get
A + A + 8 = 198
add like terms
2A + 8 = 198
subtract 8 from both sides
2A = 190
divide both sides by 2
A = 190/2 = 95
Therefore April is 95 years old
Hello! So first let's write this word problem as an equation. $2,142 = (7x)3
In this equation, 7x represents $7 times the number of tickets sold in one night. Since the same amount were bought over three nights, you can just multiple the total of 7x by 3.
To solve, first divide $2,142 by 3, which gives you $714. That means each night, the school made $714. Next divide $714 by $7 to see how many exact tickets were sold. This gives you 102. That means, the theater department sold 102 tickets each night.
Hope this helps! Good luck with the homework!

I'm pretty sure it's:
A right rectangular prism with length 15 inches, width of 8 inches, and height of 6 inches.
A cross section parallel to the base is a rectangle measuring 15 inches by 8 inches
A cross section perpendicular to the base through the midpoints of the 8-inch sides is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by 15 inches
Just visualize the rectangle
