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

Hi there! An average person ate 200.8 pounds of meat, so we would multiply that number by 3 to see how much meat the family ate altogether. 200.8 * 3 is 602.4. There. A family of 3 would eat 602.4 pounds of meat in a year.

lana [24]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

  • vertical angles are pairs of opposite angles made by intersecting lines. and they are congruent

x + 16 = 4x - 5

x - 4x = - 5 - 16

- 3x = - 21

- x = - 21/3

- x = - 7

x = 7

hope it helps

Those who have taken the Algebra EOC please answer.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

To me yes.

Algebra is mostly memorization. If you know the formulas and know how to apply it, you should do good.

I say use this. Algebra topics are like building on top each other.

Heart of Algebra:

  • Review what the purpose of x in algebra.
  • Then learn things like combining like terms, and solving for x.
  • Since you know the basics of x, you can then review linear equations( imo, a big content of algebra). Stuff like slope, different linear forms, graphs of linear equations, and mostly linear equation word problems
  • Then you can review system of equations. since you know how to manipulate linear equations, etc.

Then move on to other algebra topics dealing with algebra like

  • functions, and different types of them
  • exponents, and radicals rules
  • inequalities.
  • sequences.
  • These aren't the heart of algebra but study them they are useful and it important to know them.

Since you learned different function rules, we can move on to learning exponetial functions, graphs, and word problems.

Then finally, learn most hard thing in Algebra: Quadratics.

Pratice,practice, and practice and you will pass.

Try to memorize the formulas and know when to apply it.

Good Luck
