Answer:
Use simultaneous equation for this problem
y= number of adults
x = number of children
3y + 2x = 160
y + x = 60
then we double the second equation
3y + 2x = 160
2y + 2x = 120
we cancel x by elimination
3y - 2y = 160 - 120
y = 40

If you're trying to find the missing side of the "triangle" (the distance from the house to where the ladder touches the ground), you would use the pythagorean theorem, a²+b²=c². (c is always hypotenuse)
a²+b²=c²
12²+b²=15²
144+b²=225
b²=81
√b²=√81
b=9
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Sean and Greg share a 24-ounce bucket of clay
Sean uses 3/8 of the bucket
= 3/8 ×24
= 9 ounce
Greg uses 1/4 if the bucket
= 1/4 ×24
= 6 ounce
= 9+6
= 15 ounce
Therefore the quantity left in the bucket can be calculated as follows
= 24-15
= 9
Hence 9 ounces are left in the bucket
To find the average of the data
Answer:
76 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to find the first common multiple of both 7 and 8. the LCM is actually the numbers multiplies by each other, or 56.
