Answer: Todd earned $40 mowing the neighbor's lawn.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of money that Todd earned, mowing his neighbor's lawn.
He spent one-fourth of his money see a movie. It means that the amount spent in seeing a movie is x/4
Then he spent $6.00 on popcorn and drinks. It means that the total amount spent is
x/4 + 6
The amount left would be
x - (x/4 + 6) = x - x/4 - 6
When he went home, he had $24.00 left. It means that
x - x/4 - 6 = 24
x - x/4 = 24 + 6
x - x/4 = 30
Cross multiplying by 4, it becomes
4x - x = 120
3x = 120
x = 120/3
x = $40
X=number of females
47-x=number of males
# of males is 2*(number of females)-7:
47-x= 2x-7
add x to both sides:
47=3x-7
add 7 to both sides:
54=3x
divide both sides by 3:
x= 18 females
47-18= 29 males
