We can let x be the number of boxes sold for the first week. We can as well express the number of boxes for the second and third week through x using the statements provided.
Since the girl scout sold 5 more boxes on the second week, we have (x + 5) number of boxes sold for the second week. Now, for the third week, since it's double that of the second week, we have 2(x + 5). Thus, we have the following:
first week: x
second week: x + 5
third week: 2(x + 5)
Given that the total number of boxes sold for the three weeks is 431. We have
x + (x + 5) + 2(x + 5) = 431
x + x + 5 + 2x + 10 = 431
4x + 15 = 431
4x = 431 - 15
4x = 416
x = 104
We have now the value of x. Using this, we can find the values for the second and third week.
x + 5 = `104 + 5 = 109
2(x + 5) = 2(109) = 218
Answer:
first week: 104
second week: 109
third week: 218
308 miles per 11 gallons.
You need to find the amount of miles per 1 gallon.
dived the number of miles over gallons.
will look like:

28 miles per 1 gallon
Because the sofa usually sells for $800, we know that's 100% of the price.
100% = $800
Let's find 1%.
1% = $800/100
1% = $8
Next, multiply $8 by 75 to find the percent of the sofas price when it's $600.
75% = $600
We now know that $600 is 75% of the sofas original price.
100% - 75% = 25%
The percent of decrease I'm the sofas sale price is 25%.
Hope I got that right, the question was worded a little strangley so I wasn't quite sure what you were asking :)
Answer:m=d/V
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for m, you must divide V from each side. Leaving you with m=d/V. Hope this helped:)
