We need to write the following expression and solve for x:

9/18 = 100/x

So: 9x = 1800

x = 200

So it would take him 200 minutes to deliver 100 papers.

We do the same for 72 papers

9/18 = 72/x

so 9x = 1296

and x = 144

It would take him 144 minutes to deliver 72 papers.

Mary is x years old. what expression represents her age 12 years from now? 2 years ago?
Yuliya22 [10]
Mary is x years old
when we write the expression for her age which represents 12 years from now, it means we have to add 12 years in the age of Mary, and she is x years old now
so the expression will be:
x+12
and the expression which represents her age two years ago from now when she is x years old is:
x-2
if we know the x, we can calculate easily her age for above two expressions.

(2)(10) = 4x

20 = 4x
x = 5

You will need 5 eggs to make 10 dozen cookies
