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

Mathematics

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

evablogger [386]

Answer:

-20

Step-by-step explanation:

-8v-9=7

Add 9 to each side

-8v-9+9=7+9

-8v = 16

Divide by -8

-8v /-8 = 16/-8

v = -2

Now find

7v -6

7(-2) -6

Aleks [24]
The problem with the question is that 51% of 1009 adults could not have said that their biggest fear was losing vision. The issue with 51% of 1009 is that you wont be left with a whole number, but a decimal instead. You cant have a decimal of a person.

If measure of angle T= (2x + 85), measure of angle V= (5x + 29), and
netineya [11]

Answers:

Angle T = 79 degrees

Angle V = 14 degrees

=========================================================

Work Shown:

T + V = 93

(2x+85) + (5x+29) = 93

7x+114 = 93

7x = 93-114

7x = -21

x = -21/7

x = -3

This x value is used to find each angle mentioned.

  • Angle T = 2x+85 = 2(-3)+85 = -6+85 = 79 degrees
  • Angle V = 5x+29 = 5(-3)+29 = -15+29 = 14 degrees

As a check, T+V = 79+14 = 93 which confirms our answers.
