B=h+4, m=h-2  now we are told

b+h+m=11, using b and m found above in this equation gives us:

h+4+h+h-2=11

3h+2=11

3h=9

h=3 and since b=h+4, m=h-2

historical=3, biography=7, mystery=1

Answer: Put the values into an equation.
Historical fiction can be x
The equation is:
x + x + 4 + x -2 = 11

11 - 2 = 9
9/3 = 3
They read 3 historical fiction.
They read 7 biographies.
They read 1 mystery.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

At 6 p.m., the number of cars in a parking lot is 120

Step-by-step explanation:

At 1 p.m., the number of cars in a parking lot is 78.

Given,

A_n=78\cdot 1.09^n

Note that

A_0=78\cdot 1.09^0=78\cdot 1=78

So, 1 p.m. goes for n = 0, then

6 p.m. goes for n = 5

Thus,

A_5=78\cdot 1.09^5\approx 120
