Answer:

Emmanuel purchased 11 pounds of soil last week.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we want to find the number of pounds of soil Emmanuel purchased last week, we will have to work backwards.

We know that the amount is 5 lb more than twice the amount of potting soil he bought last week. This info gives us an equation.

2x + 5 = 27, as its twice the amount last week and 5 lbs more. Now we solve.

2x + 5 = 27 | Subtract 5 from both sides

2x = 22 | Divide both sides by 2

x = 11

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

his total income by the end of 4 years will be: $2622.

Step-by-step explanation:

A man earns a base salary of $2000, and every year he got a raise of 7% on his total income.

The first year, he will earn: 1.07($2000) = $2140

The second year he will earn: 1.07($2140) = $2289.8

The third year he will earn: 1.07($2289.8) = $2450.086

The fourth year he will earn: 1.07($2450.086) = $2621.59202

Therefore, his total income by the end of 4 years will be: $2622.

Kevin is 333 years older than Daniel. Two years ago, Kevin was 444 times as old as Daniel.
tia_tia [17]

Answer: the equations are

k = d + 33

k - 2 = 4(d-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Kevin be represented by k

Let the present age of Daniel be represented by d

Kevin is 33 years older than Daniel. This means that the expression for their current age is

k = d + 33

Two years ago, Kevin was 4 times as old as Daniel. This means that 2 will be subtracted from their present ages to depict two years ago. Therefore, Two years ago for Daniel will be d-2

Two years ago for Kevin will be k - 2

Remember that Kevin was 4 times as old as Daniel two years ago, it becomes

k - 2 = 4(d-2)
