Answer:
84
Step-by-step explanation:
80 + (80 * 5/100) = 84
simply take the 5% of 80 which is 4 and add it back to 80 which is 84
<span>30x + 30y = 450 20x + 25y = 345
Here 345 represents the total area (in sq ft) shoveled; x repres. Melinda's rate and y represents Paul's rate. We need to solve for x and y and then subtract the smaller from the larger.
</span>30x + 30y = 450 Multiply this eqn by 2: 6<span>0x + 60y = 900
</span>20x + 25y = 345 Mult this eqn by -3: -60x -75y = -1035
---------------------------
-15y = -135
y = 9
This comes to 9 square feet per minute.
Now, let's find x: 30x + 30y = 450; 30x + 270 = 450; 30x = 180; x = 6
Melinda can shovel 6 sq ft in 1 min, whereas Paul can shovel 9.
The difference is (9 - 6) sq ft / min, or 3 sq ft / min (answer)
Answer: D. 12 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality. (1)
Therefore y = x and line B depicts that.
