X = Juan's age
y = Eliza's age

Some key words/phrases we can use to help us make the equation are:

-is (whatever comes after this word usually equals the end result, or what it equals)
-two years younger
-than
-half her brother's age
.
just break it down :)

x/2 (half her brother's age) - 2 (two years younger) = y (Eliza is...)

| basically,
v

x/2 - 2 = y
So if Juan is 6, then we need to plug in 6 for x.

6/2 - 2 = y

3 - 2 = y

1 = y

ANSWER: Eliza is one year old.

20 total marbles....7 are green

probability on first draw is 7/20...and since the marble was not replaced, the probability on the second draw is 6/19. And since they cant happen at the same time, we multiply

7/20 * 6/19 = 42/380 which reduces to 21/190

Kimiko works at the drive-thru window in a fast-food restaurant. At the end of a 2-hour shift, the display at her window shows t
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

90 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

Total shift time  = 2 hours

1 hours = 60 minutes

Total shift time minutes = 2*60 minutes = 120 minutes

Average Time taken to serve 1 customer = 1 minute 20 seconds

lets convert  1 minute 20 seconds in fraction

60 seconds = 1 minute

20 seconds  = 20/60 minutes = 1/3 minutes

Thus,

Average Time taken to serve 1 customer = 1 minute + 1/3 minutes = 4/3 minutes

Lets assume she served x customer in her 2 hour shift

total time taken to serve x customer =x*Average Time taken to serve 1 customer = 4x/3 minutes

Given that she the customers for her shift time which is 120 minutes

4x/3 minutes = 120 minutes

x = 120*3/4 = 90

Thus,

Kimiko served 90 customers and this is the number of customer which came through the drive thru during those 2 hours.
