Answer:

Sleeping = 28 hrs

Watching TV = 9 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

1) You know you will spend 37 years doing both things:

  • Sleeping + Watching.TV=37

2) You also know that you will spend 19 years more sleeping than watching TV:

  • Sleeping = 19+Watching.TV

3) Substitute your second equation in your first equation:

  • 19+Watching.TV+Watching.TV=37\\19+2*Watching.TV=37\\Watching.TV = \frac{37-19}{2} \\Watching.TV = 9 [years]

4) Substitute the result in your second equation:

  • Sleeping=19+9\\Sleeping = 28[years]

A high school coach needs to buy new athletic shorts for the 15 members of the basketball team. The coach must spend less than $
AfilCa [17]
If the budget is $200 and he have 15 members then we have divide the two. 200 / 15 = $13.33 per shorts. 15x =< $200. x represents 13.33. So the solution represents the coach may spend up to $13.33 per pair of shorts. If it was even 1 cent more than $13.33 than he wouldn't have enough.So he can spend up to $13.33 or less per pair of shorts.
