Tapiwa raked 5% more leaves than Adam raked. Together, they raked 697 liters of leaves. How many liters of leaves did Adam rake?

Mathematics

EleoNora [17]3 years ago

Assume that the number of leaves raked by Adam is x.
Tapiwa raked 5% more leaves than Adam, this means that:
Leaves raked by Tapiwa = x + 0.05x = 1.05x liters
We are given that the total number of raked leaves is 697 liters.
This means that:
Total raked = raked by Adam + raked by Tapiwa
697 = x + 1.05x
697 = 2.05x
x = 697 / 2.05 
x = 340
Based on the above calculations:
Adam raked 340 liters of leaves
Tapiwa raked 1.05(340) = 357 liters of leaves

Write the equations of three distinct lines that have the same y-intercept,-1.
guajiro [1.7K]
Three possible answers are:
y = 2x-1
y = 5x-1
y = -3x-1

All of them have the same y intercept of -1. The slopes are the only thing that differ.

Any linear equation can be written in the form y = mx+b where
m = slope
b = y intercept

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

y=2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient has to be 2, since the graph has a slope of 2, and the constant has to be 3 because the y- intercept is 3.

y=2x+3

Colby made $66.50 for mowing 7 lawns. Let x represent the number of lawns mowed and y represent the amount of money earned. Writ
Amanda [17]

Answer:

x = 9.5y

Step-by-step explanation:

7 lawns = $66.50

1 lawn = $66.50 ÷ 7

          = $9.50

You now know that for one lawn mowed, the amount of money earned is $9.50. Thus:

1x = 9.5y

x = 9.5y
