Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of pounds of oranges in the full box.

On a field trip, students ate 3/10 of a box of oranges. This means that the students ate 3/10 × x = 3x/10 pounds of oranges.

Altogether they ate 6 pounds of oranges. This means that

3x/10 = 6

3x = 6×10

3x = 60

x = 60/3 = 20

The full box contained 20 pounds of oranges

Each tenth of the model is 2 pounds because a tenth of 20 pounds is 20/10 = 2 pounds

Rolando is 17. In four years, his age will be 3/2 the age of his sister Marisa. How old will Marisa be in three years
Bess [88]
To find the answer, we can first find the age of Rolando in four year:

17+4
=21

We can then proceed to find the current age of Marisa,which is 3/2 of Rolando’s age calculated above:

Let Marisa’s age be y.

3/2 y =21
y = 21 × 2/3
y = 42/3
y = 14

Therefore Marisa is currently 14 years old.

In three years, Marisa would be:

14+3
=17

Therefore, she will be 17 years old.

Hope it helps!
