Answer:

Randall picks up 68 pounds

Seth picks up 40 pounds

Joanna picks up 52 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us make an equation in x to find it

∵ Randall's bag weighs  3x - 7 pounds

∵ Joanna's bag weighs  2x + 2 pounds

∵ Seth's bag weighs 2x - 10 pounds

∵ Randall's and Joanna's bags weigh 3 times as much as  Seth's bag

- That means add Randall's bag and Joanna's bag and equate

    the sum by 3 times Seth's bag

∵ Randall's bag + Joanna's bag = 3(Seth's bag)

∴ (3x - 7) + (2x + 2) = 3(2x - 10)

- Simplify the two sides

∴ (3x + 2x) + (-7 + 2) = 3(2x) - 3(10)

∴ 5x + (-5) = 6x - 30

∴ 5x - 5 = 6x - 30

- Add 5 to both sides

∴ 5x = 6x - 25

- Subtract 6x from both sides

∴ -x = -25

- Divide both sides by -1

∴ x = 25

Substitute x by 25 in the weight of each bag

∵ Randall's bag weighs = 3(25) - 7 = 75 - 7

∴ Randall's bag weighs = 68 pounds

∵ Seth's bag weighs = 2(25) - 10 = 50 - 10

∴ Seth's bag weighs = 40 pounds

∵ Joanna's bag weighs  = 2(25) + 2 = 50 + 2

∴ Joanna's bag weighs  = 52 pounds

On the day of his 18th birthday harry decided to start saving money regularly
Veseljchak [2.6K]

We have been given that on the day of his 18th birthday Harry decided to start saving money regularly . Starting on that day, he could save 30.00 on the same date every month. We are asked to find the amount saved by the day before Harry's 60th birthday.

First of all, we will find years from 18 years to 60 years.

\text{Years}=60-18=42

We know that 1 year equals 12 months.

\text{42 years}=12\times 42\text{ Months}=504\text{ Months}

To find total amount saved, we will multiply 504 months by amount saved per month.

\text{Total amount saved}=\$30\times 504

\text{Total amount saved}=\$15,120

Therefore, Harry would have saved \$15,120 by the day before his 60th birthday.
