Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let “x” be the weight of the bottle and “y” is weight of honey.
We know the total weight of bottle full of honey is 1000 g.
So Equation 1 is x + y = 1000 g
And with half of the honey, we know the total weight is 600g.
Equation 2: x + (y/2) = 600 g
y/2=600 - x
y= 2 (600 - x)
y= 1200 - 2x
We can replace “y” with 1200 - 2x in Equation 1:
x + 1200 - 2x = 1000
x = 200 g
Weight of the bottle is 200 g.
16 - 14 = 2
Think of it as in objects. You have 16 candies, and you eat 14. How many do you have left? You can count it and see. You have 2 left. So 16 - 14 = 2
Hope that helps :)
15x-20<130
15x<130+20
15x<150
X=150/15
x<10
let
r--------> Alvin's average paddling rate in km/hour
y -------> speed of the current
in km/hour
we know that
speed= distance/time
------> solve for distance
distance=speed*time
to Campsite against the current
speed=r-y-----> speed=(r-3)
time=8 hours
distance=(r-3)*8------> equation 2
From Campsite with the current
speed=r+y-----> speed=(r+3)
time=3 hours
distance=(r+3)*3------> equation 1
equate equation 1 and equation 2-----> because is the same distance
(r+3)*3=(r-3)*8----> 3r+9=8r-24----> 8r-3r=24+9-----> 5r=33----> r=6.6 km/hour
therefore
the answer is
Alvin's average paddling rate is 6.6 km/hour
