X - Jim
y - Carla
z - Tomy

y=x+5\\
z=y+6\\
x+y+z=31\\\\
x=y-5\\
z=y+6\\
x+y+z=31\\\\
y-5+y+y+6=31\\
3y=30\\
y=10\\\\
x=10-5\\
x=5\\\\
z=10+6\\
z=16

<u /><em></em>let the age of jim be x
carla's age= x+5
tomy's age= 6+5+x
sum of their ages=31
x+x+5+x+5+6=3x+16=31
3x=31-16
   =15
x=15 divided by 3
     = 5
jim's age=5
carla's age=<u />10
tomy's ag<u>e = 16</u>

What is the approximate volume of a basketball with the circumference of 42ft ?
Semmy [17]
We know that

[volume of a sphere]=(4/3)*pi*r³

length of a circumference=42 ft
[length of a circumference]=2*pi*r-------> r=[length of a circumference]/(2*pi)
r=[42]/(2*pi)---------> r=6.6845 ft

[volume of a sphere]=(4/3)*pi*6.6845³-----------> 1251.11 ft³

the answer is 1251.11 ft³

Emil is running a lemonade stand. He sells half of his lemonade in the morning, a quarter of what was left at lunchtime, and a t
masya89 [10]

Emil starts the day with <u>16 liters</u> of lemonade if he is left with 4 liters by the end of the day. Computed using the fractional values given.

Let the initial quantity of lemonade with Emil be x liters.

Quantity sold by Emil in the morning = Half of his lemonade = (1/2)x liters, that is half fraction of x.

Quantity left with Emil = x - x/2 = x/2 liters, that is half fraction of x.

Quantity sold by Emil at lunchtime = Quarter of what was left = (1/4)(x/2) liters = x/8 liters, that is the one-eight fraction of x.

Quantity left with Emil = x/2 - x/8 = 3x/8 liters, that is the three-eight fraction of x.

Quantity sold by Emil in the afternoon = One-third of what was left = (1/3)(3x/8) liters = x/8 liters, that is the one-eight fraction of x.

Quantity left with Emil = 3x/8 - x/8 = x/4 liters, that is the quarter fraction of x.

Now, we are said that Emil closes for the day with 4 liters remaining.

Therefore, x/4 = 4, or, x = 4*4 = 16 liters.

Therefore, Emil started the day with 16 liters of lemonade.

Luz earns $400 for 40 hours of work. Use a ratio table to determine how much she earns for 6 hours of work.
LiRa [457]
To work out how much Luz earns, you simply have to follow 400/40=10, so she earns $10/hour. We can therefore establish that if she works for 6 hours, she'll earn $60.

Ari’s teacher says he may have his report grade based on either the mean or the median of his last six test scores.
viva [34]

The mean would be the best! The mean is when you add up all of those grades and divide by the amount of exams.

If you're solving it,

504 is the total divided by 6 tests would be 84.
