X + y = 2400
y = 3x

x + 3x = 2400
4x = 2400
x = 2400/4
x = 600 <== Mrs. Storey drove 600 miles

y = 3x
y = 3(600)
y = 1800 <== Mr. Storey drove 1800 miles

Allison can jog 3 blocks in the same amount of time it takes her brother, Blake, to jog 2 blocks. If they keep jogging at the sa
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Blake will jog 12 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

Allison : Blake = 3 : 2

If they keep jogging at the same rate, how many blocks will Blake jog if Allison jogs 18 blocks?

Allison : Blake = 18 : x

Equate the ratios

3 : 2 = 18 : x

3/2 = 18/x

Cross multiply

3 * x = 2 * 18

3x = 36

Divide both sides by 3

x = 36 / 3

= 12

x = 12

Blake will jog 12 blocks

Lucy earns ​$5.50 per hour at a local restaurant. She earns time and a half for each hour she works on a holiday. Lucy worked se
Mrrafil [7]
X will be used for the value of money she earned that week.

H represents the normal hours she worked.

D represents the number of days.

Y will represent the hours on the holiday.

Since she would be getting time and a half on the holiday, you would need to find how much time and a half pay would be first.

Time and a half = 5.50(1/2) + 5.50 = $8.25/hr for the day or holiday only.

X = 5.50(H)(D) + 8.25(Y)

Plug in your numbers

X = 5.50(7)(5) + 8.25(4)

X = 192.5 + 33

She made $225.5 that week.
