Answer:

The answer to your question is : number 1 = 13    number 2 = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

# 1 = 2n +1

# 2 = 2n +3

Conditions:

2n + 1 + 77  = 6(2n + 3)            

Simplify              2n + 78 = 12 n + 18

Solve it for n       12n - 2n = 78 -18

                            10n = 60

                              n = 60/10

                              n = 6

But

     # 1 = 2n + 1 = 2(6) + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

     # 2 = 2n + 3 = 2(6) + 3 = 12 + 3 = 15

Here is what you have to take into account:
The first thing you need to do is to take the 1,500$ and then divide it by 3. That will give you 500. After that you need to add 500 to the original 1500 and it should give you 2000$. The answer is <span>500 if you only are looking for the bonus and 2000 if you want the total bonus.  </span>

It took h to complete 1 game of cards. How many games can be completed in h?
dmitriy555 [2]

If it took one hour to complete a card game, we can tell that the average play time varies around that time.

So only one game can be completed in one hour.

Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!
