Two kids at a summer camp, Tina and Winston, are competing in a potato sack race. Tina is younger, so she is given a head start

of 33 meters. When the race starts, Tina hops at a rate of 1 meter per second, and Winston hops 4 meters per second. Eventually, Winston will overtake Tina. How long will that take? How far will Winston have to hop? It will take ___ seconds for Winston to hop ___ meters and catch up to Tina.

Answer:

It will take Winston 11 seconds to hop 44 meters and catch up to Tina

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation where x represents the number of seconds:

Tina will be represented by s + 33 since she goes 1 m/sec and she has a 33 meter head start, and Winston will be 4s. We need to find when Winston will catch up, so we need an equal sign.

s + 33 = 4s

Solve for s:

s + 33 = 4s

33 = 3s

11 = s

= 11 seconds

Then, plug in 11 as s to find how many meters he will go:

s + 33

11 + 33 = 44

= 44 meters

Remember, mean is average. So first you add them all up, and then divide by the total number. All the dollars added up and then divided by 6 equals 59. So, working backwards, if you multiply 6 (the number of categories) by 59 you get the total of all money earned from every category. 6 times 59 equals 354. But if you add what you can see right now, it only equals 274. So the t-shirt total must be the difference between the two... 80 dollars.

Brandon has a playlist with 83 hip-hop and pop songs. There are 15 more hip-hop songs than pop songs. How many pop songs are on
kogti [31]

Using a system of equations, it is found that there are 34 pop songs are on the playlist.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are:

  • Variable x: Number of hip-hop songs.
  • Variable y: Number of pop songs.

Brandon has a playlist with 83 hip-hop and pop songs, hence:

x + y = 83.

There are 15 more hip-hop songs than pop songs, hence:

x = 15 + y.

Replacing the second onto the first equation:

x + y = 83.

15 + y + y = 83.

2y = 68.

y = 34.

There are 34 pop songs are on the playlist.
