Answer:
Carter family = 25 hours
Davis family = 31 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the number of hours the Carter family used their sprinkler is x and the number of hours the Davis family used their sprinkler for is y.
So combined:
x + y = 45 hours
and we are also told that:
40x + 15y = 1300 L
So we can do simultaneous equations to solve the problem.
With some rearranging, we can figure out that:
y= 45 - x
and by substituting that into the second equation:
40x + 15 (45 -x) = 40x + 675 - 15x = 1300L
25x = 1300 - 675
25x = 625
x = 25 = hours that the Carter family used their sprinkler
and we can substitute that back into the original equation to find how many hours the Davis family used their sprinkler so:
25 + y = 56
y = 31
The Davis family used their sprinkler for 31 hours whilst the Carter family used their sprinkler for 25 hours.
Answer: 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Lindsay and Lorraine are trying to match the jump rope world record.
Number of jumps they need to jump together in a row = 48
Lindsay has gotten 14 jumps in a row, and Lorraine has gotten 13.
Total jumps = 14+13=27
Let 'j' be the number of more jumps they need to match the record.
j= Total jumps needed - Total jumps they already gotten
⇒ j= 48-27
⇒ j= 21
Hence, they need 21 more jumps to match the record.
A = 1/2(8+4)(3)
A = 6 * 3
A = 18
