<span>A. Calculate the value of x.</span>
Answer:
562 = 85x +52
x is the number of days
Veronica traveled for 7 days
Step-by-step explanation:
562 = 85x + 52
510 = 85x Subtract 52 on both sides
6 = x Divide by 85 to isolate x
Even though Veronica only had to drive 52 miles on the last day of her trip, it still counts as a day of driving. Hence, she traveled 7 days in total.
8 in 2.408 is closer to 10, so you round 2.408 to 2.41
Answer:
The amount of weight he has lost in 3 months is 1.215 stone or 1 stone 3 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above question, we are to calculate the amount of weight he has lost in three months
1 stone = 14 pounds
Let's convert all the weight lost to stone
At the start of the diet keirin weighted 14 stone 13 pounds
14 pounds = 1 stone
13 pounds = x
Cross Multiply
14x = 13
x = 13/14
x = 0.9285714286 stone
Approximately = 0.929 stone
Hence:
14 stone 13 pounds = 14 + 0.929 = 14.929 stone
Three months later he weighted 13 stone 10 pounds
14 pounds = 1 stone
10pounds = x
Cross Multiply
14x = 10
x = 10/14
x = 0.7142857143 stone
Approximately = 0.714 stone
Hence:
13 stone 10 pounds = 13 + 0.714 = 13.714 stone
The amount of weight he has lost is calculated as:
14.929 stone - 13.714 stone = 1.215 stone or 1 stone 3 pounds
