Answer:

Number of bottles = 6

Number of cans = c

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Container for selling water :

17 oz bottle

11 oz can

Let number of bottles = b

Number of cans = c

b + c = 11 - - - (1)

17b + 11c = 157 - - - (2)

b = 11 - c

Substitute into (2)

17(11 - c) + 11c = 157

187 - 17c + 11c = 157

187 - 6c = 157

-6c = 157 - 187

-6c = -30

c = 30/6

c = 5

From ; b = 11 - c

b = 11 - 5

b = 6

Hence,

Number of bottles = 6

Number of cans = c

Mark and Trisha are traveling in the same direction and Mark is going 16 miles per hour. Trisha is going 12 miles per hour but s
Lorico [155]

Answer:

32 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let the total distance be x miles

Marks speed= 16miles per hour

Trisha's speed= 12 miles per hour

Trisha has covered 8 miles and has  (x-8) miles to finish line

We know that

Speed= distance/time

time= distance/speed

Hence the time taken for Mark to finish is

time= x/16---------------1

The time taken for Trisha to finish is

time= (x-8)/12-----------2

equate 1 and 2 above

x/16= (x-8)/12

cross multiply

16(x-8)= 12*x

16x-128= 12x

collect like terms

16x-12x= 128

4x=128

x= 128/4

x= 32 miles

Hence they will meet at exactly 32 miles along the way

I think eight because if you add those days together they will play again in eight days so that they play on the same day.

Sorry if I got it wrong I tried and that's what counts, right?

                             21 scoops.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Beaus recipe for granola bars calls for 3 1/2 cups of oatmeal.  

i.e. the cups of oatmeal required is:

3\dfrac{1}{2}\ cups=\dfrac{3\times 2+1}{2}\ cups

If it is less than full it means it is anything below 5/5 or 6/6, so they both have less than full water bottles...

If you meant less than half full, Josan has 0.5/5 less than half, so yes, They should stop in this case as well.
