Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily solve this problem using algebra as follows.

Let Meteorite B be expressed as x.

We know that the combined weight is 84 tons and that meteorite A is 3 times the weight of meteorite B. That means Meteorite B is x/3.

Based on that, let's form an equation:

$x + \frac{x}{3} =84\\1 \frac{1}{3} x=84\\x=63$

I hope this will help you :D

This means she washes 6 plates a min and thus from 7:15 to 7:38 (23 mins) she washes:

6X23 = 138 plates

b)

L - plates left
T- total plates
t - time(mins)

"L = T - 6x"
This is because she washes 6 plates a min
