Help........Write an equation and solve:

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tom [10]3 years ago

Answer:

5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Equate the formulas for the weights of the two boys:

J's weight = 120 lb + (10 lb/mo)m  = D's weight = 150 lb + (4 lb/mo)m

Solve as follows:  Subtract 120 lb from both sides:

(10 lb/mo)m = 30 lb + (4 lb/mo)m.

Then:  (6 lb/mo)m = 30 lb, and m = (30 lb) / (6 lb/mo) = 5 months

THIS IS 100 POINTS SOMEBODY PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HELP MEEEEE
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer: Option #4: the 0.2 could be changed to 2.

Explanation:

The table is designed to make the concept of percentages more understandable. The table first allocates the total amount of 70 in terms of its "fifths," or 20% parts. Then it expresses these parts in the last row of the table, showing that 20% of 70 is 14 and all the five parts sum up to 70 again.

Now, Mikel is supposed to express 40% of the amount. So she writes (incorrectly): 0.2 * 14. This statement needs to be changed to 2 * 14 (two times 14 = 28), to correspond to 2 times 20%, or 40%  of 70.

This is reflected in the last (fourth) option "The 0.2 in the expression could be changed to 2."

Option #3 is incorrect because changing 14 to 70, will result in an incorrect number (2.8).

Options 1 and 2 are similarly incorrect (as can be easily verified)

Wewaii [24]
Ok first we have to find out whats 2p+p=20 combine like terms to get 3p=20 the divide 3 on each side to get p=6 2/3 then we plug in 6 2/3 to 2p-5 so 2(6 2/3) -5 so its 12.666-5 to get 7.666 so that's the answer.
