Answer:
129 points
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L and C represent the scores of Luke and Caleb, respectively.
L = 2C -15 . . . . . Luke scored 15 less than twice the number Caleb did
L +C = 201 . . . . . they scored 201 points altogether
Add twice the second equation to the first:
2(L +C) + (L) = 2(201) + (2C -15)
3L +2C = 387 +2C . . . . simplify
3L = 387 . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 2C
L = 387/3 = 129 . . . . . . .divide by 3
Luke scored 129 points.

A motor boat travels 60 miles down a river in three hours but takes five hours to return upstream. Find the rate of the boat in
Kryger [21]

Answer:

  • boat: 16 mph
  • current: 4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

  speed = distance / time

The rate downriver is (60 mi)/(3 h) = 20 mi/h.

The rate upriver is (60 mi)/(5 h) = 12 mi/h.

The rate of the boat in still water is the average of these:

  (20 +12)/2 mi/h = 16 mi/h

The rate of the current is the difference between the boat speed and actual speed:

  16 mi/h - 12 mi/h = 4 mi/h

Paul currently has $300 to spend on a data plan. He found a phone for $100 and a $50 a month charge.
zvonat [6]
Let x= months
So 50x is the total amount he pays after x months. You went to add 100 to this because there's a fixed cost of 100 for the phone
So you have the expression 100+50x which is the amount he pays after x months
Since he has a limit of 300,
100+50x < 300

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= x/5

To solve for f(100), we substitute 100 for x everywhere in the equation:

f(100) = (100)/5

f(100) = 20
