Answer:
Length of route that passes the mall= 11 miles
Length of route that passes the theater= 13 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
route to school that passes the mall (highlighted in red)
= (x +1) +(x +2)
= 2x +3
route to school that passes the theater (in yellow)
= (2x +1) +x
= 3x +1
Since the first is 2 miles shorter,
2x +3= 3x +1 -2
Simplify:
2x +3= 3x -1
Bring constants to 1 side, x terms to the other:
3x -2x= 3 +1
x= 4
Substitute x=4 to find the length of each route:
Length of the route that passes the mall
= 2x +3
= 2(4) +3
= 8 +3
= 11 miles
Length of route that passes the theater
= 3x +1
= 3(4) +1
= 12 +1
= 13 miles
Alternatively, length of route that passes the theater
= 11 +2= 13 miles since it is 2 miles longer than that which passes the mall.

Answer:
936 jars of peanut butter contain less peanut butter than usual.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First, we need to find how many jars of peanut butter that contain less peanut butter than advertised are produced every hour.
The factory produces 1200 jars of peanut butter every hour
3.25% of those jars have less peanut butter than advertised
So: multiply (the decimal form of the percent) to find the amount of peanut butter jars that contain less peanut butter than advertised.
So the factory produces 39 jars of peanut butter that contain less peanut butter than advertised.
2. Second, we need to find how many jars of peanut butter that contain less peanut butter than advertised in three 8 hour work days.
Lets add these work days together to find the total amount of hours:
So: three 8 hour work days totals to 24 hours
Since the factory produces 39 jars of peanut butter that contain less peanut butter than advertised per hour. Multiply to find the total amount of jars produced in three 8 hour work days.
A total of 936 peanut butter jars are produced in three 8 hour work days that contain less peanut butter than advertised.
3. If you want to double check your work do the following.
Since the factory produces 1200 jars an hour and 24 hours total three 8 hour work days. Multiply
So there is a total of 28800 jars produced in three 8 hour work days.
Then you can multiply 28800 by 3.25% of jars that contain less peanut butter to find the total amount of peanut butter jars that contain less peanut butter in three 8 hour work days.
