Answer:
7.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The key here is to find out how much can be done in the same amount ot time
the least common multiple of 5 hrs and 3 hrs is 15hrs
In 15 hours:
- At 5 hours per lawn Norton could mow 15/5 = 3 lawns
- At 3 hours per lawn together thay could mow 15/3 = 5 lawns
In 15 hours Jesse would mow 5 - 3 = 2 lawns
15 hours/ 2 lawns = 7.5 hours per lawn
7.5 hours
--------------------
Here's the math
1 lawn/5hrs + x = 1 lawn / 3hrs
1/5 + x = 1/3
Subtract 1/5 from both sides
x = 1/3 - 1/5
x = 5/15 - 3/15
x = 2/15
x = 2lawns/15 hrs
15hrs/2lawns = 7.5 hrs per lawn
7.5 hours
Let x = the total number of garden beds
18 = .3x
x = 60 garden beds
Answer:
They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that they buy x hotdogs and y popcorn
∵ They buy a total of 11 hotdogs and popcorn
∵ The number of hotdogs is x and the number of popcorn is y
∴ x + y = 11 ⇒ (1)
∵ Hot dogs cost $2.50 each
∵ Popcorn costs $1.00 each
∵ They spend $20 on hot dogs and popcorn
→ Multiply x by 2.5 and y by 1, add the products and equate the sum by 20
∴ 2.5(x) + 1(y) = 20
∴ 2.5x + y = 20 ⇒ (2)
Now we have a system of equations to solve it
→ Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)
∵ (2.5x - x) + (y - y) = (20 - 11)
∴ 1.5x + 0 = 9
∴ 1.5x = 9
→ Divide both sides by 1.5 to find x
∴ x = 6
→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y
∵ 6 + y = 11
→ Subtract 6 from both sides
∴ 6 - 6 + y = 11 - 6
∴ y = 5
∴ They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn
