ANSWER

10 weeks, $310


EXPLANATION

We have a system of linear equations as both equations need to be satisfied by the same ordered pair (x,y):


y = 25x + 60

y = 30x + 10


We can solve this by substitution. Since y is equal to 25x+60, we can substitute in 25x + 60 for y in the equation y=30x+10


y = 30x + 10

25x + 60 = 30x + 10


Subtract 25x from both sides


60 = 5x + 10

Subtract 10 from both sides and then divide both sides by 5


50 = 5x

x = 10


x represents time in weeks, so 10 weeks.


Find y, the amount of money, by substituting x=10 into either equation.

If we use y = 30x + 10, then


y = 30x + 10

y = 30(10) + 10

y = 300 + 10

y = 310


y = 310 implies $310 so the answer is 10 weeks, $310.

wanda started walking along a path 27 seconds before Dave .Wanda walked at a constant rate of 3 feet per second. Dave walked alo
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

54 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Wanda's walking rate = 3 ft/s

Wanda's head start = 27 s

Dave's walking rate= 4.5 ft/s

Let 't' be time after Dave started walking

The distance walked by Wanda and Dave, respectively, as a function of 't' are given by:

W(t) = (27+t)*3\\D(t) = 4.5*t

The instant 't' at which Dave catches up to Wanda (both distances walked are equal) is:

(27+t)*3= 4.5*t\\t=\frac{81}{1.5} \\t= 54\ s

68% of johns school are boys. There are 180 more boys than girls. How many students are there in johns school
Ghella [55]

Answer:

500 students in the school

boys percentage 68%

girls percentage 32%

difference 68 - 32 = 36% = 180

36 ÷ 18 = 2 × 50 = 100

180 ÷ 18 = 10 × 50 = 500

Answer:

12.25 and 12.6 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

For number 2, you take the amount of cookies, x, and divide it by the number of hours, a, and you get x / a = 12.25 or 12.6

For number 3, you do the same as in number 2, you take the pages read, x, divided by the time, a, and get x / a = s

s = 2 and 0.5
