There are several ways to answer this question and I will use this approach. Since Johnny reads at a ratio of 7:3 it can be stated that for every 10 pages in a book containing 500 pages Johnny will read 7 of those pages. There are 50 groups of 10 in a 500-page book (50 x 10). Take the ration 7:3 times 50 and use the distributive property: 7:3(50) = (7 x 50):(3 x 50) = 350:150. Based on this Johnny has read 350 pages and has 150 pages remaining.
W=14 that’s because 360-80=280 then you have to divide that by 20. And you get 14 weeks.
The easiest variable you can solve for first is "z". Knowing that opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle are supplementary, subtract 93 from 180 to get z.
Z should equal 87.
The next variable we can solve for is "x". We know that inscribed angles are half the measure of their intercepting arc, so we know 93 is half of (112 + x). The equation would look like this:
93= (112 + x)/2
Multiply both sides by 2
186 = 112 + x
Subtract 112 from both sides
74 = x
Now we can apply the same method we used to find "x" to find y. Set up an equation like this:
80 = (y + x)/2
Substitute the value of x in
80 = (y + 74)/2
Multiply both sides by 2
160 = y + 74
Subtract 74 from both sides
86 = y
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52
Step-by-step explanation:
In 3 years their ages will add up to 71 so you have to subtract 6 as there are two of them to get 65. Lacy's age is represented by x and since Jack is 4 times older his age is represented by 4x. So added together their age is 5x. So 5x=65. Then 65/5=13. So 13=x. So Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52 as 13x4 is 52.
