Answer: on the first day, they hiked 9 miles.

On the second day, they hiked 16 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance that the two hikers hiked from the first mountain to the second mountain.

Let y represent the distance that the two hikers hiked from the second mountain to the hollow.

The total distance is 25mi. This means that

x + y = 25 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

If the distance between the second mountain and the hollow is 7mi more than the distance from the first mountain to the second mountain, it means that

y = x + 7

Substituting y = x + 7 into equation 1, it becomes

x + x + 7 = 25

2x = 25 - 7

2x = 18

x = 18/2 = 9

y = x + 7 = 9 + 7

y = 16

David's bowling score is 6 less than 2 times Aaron's score. The sum of their scores is 84. Find the score of each student. Use t
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Aaron's bowling score is 30

David's bowling score is 54

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable representing Aaron's score is = a

The variable representing David's bowling score = d

The sum of their scores is 84.

= a + d = 84...... Equation 1

David's bowling score is 6 less than 2 times Aaron's score.

d = 2a - 6

Substituting 2a - 6 for d in Equation 1

a + 2a - 6 = 84

3a - 6 = 84

3a = 84 + 6

3a = 90

a = 90/3

a = 30

Hence, Aaron's bowling score is 30

d = 2a - 6

d = 2(30) - 6

d = 60 - 6

d = 54

David's bowling score is 54

Reuben made 4 identical necklaces, each having beads and a pendant. The total cost of the beads and pendants for all 4 necklaces
zysi [14]

Answer:

$3.90

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost was $24.40.

We know the cost for beads for each necklace is also $2.20, multiply this by four to find the cost of the beads for all the necklaces.

$2.20 × 4 = $8.80

Now we will subtract this from the total price.

$24.40 - $8.80 = $15.60

$15.60 Is the remaining cost for the pendants of all four necklaces. We will now divide this by four to find the price of a single pendant.

$15.60 ÷ 4 = $3.90

<u>This means the cost of each pendant is $3.90</u>
