Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Let x represents the Sara eat pancake and y represents the Phil eat the pancake.
As per the statement:
Phil ate three less than twice as many pancakes as Sara.
"Twice as many pancake as Sara" means 2x
"three less than twice as many pancakes as Sara" means 2x -3
⇒
.....[1]
It is also given that together they combined to eat 15 pancakes.
⇒
.....[2]
Substitute equation [1] into [2] we get;

Combine like terms;
3x-3 =15
Add 3 to both sides we get;
3x = 18
Divide both sides by 3 we get;
x = 6
Substitute the value of x in [1] we get;
y = 2(6)-3 = 12-3 =9
y = 9
Therefore, the pancakes did each eat are;
Sara eat pancake = 6 and Phil eat pancake = 9
Answer:
Weight of a quarter = 6.25 grams
Weight of a dime = 2.5 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
The weight of a nickel is 80%

Weight of a dime = 50% = 12 (weight of nickel) = 52 = 2.5 grams
Step 1
<u>Find the value of TS</u>
we know that
if PQ is parallel to RS. then triangles TRS and TPQ are similar
so

solve for TS

we have


substitute

Step 2
<u>Find the value of SQ</u>
we know that

we have


substitute

therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
the value of SQ is
