Answer:
16 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up two equations:
1st: P (for Price family) + J (for Jenkins family) = 45 hours
2nd: 20P + 35J = 1200 liters
Rewrite the first equation as P = 45 – J
Replace P in the second equation:
20(45-J) + 35J = 1200
Simplify:
900 -20J + 35J = 1200
900 +15J = 1200
Subtract 900 from both sides:
15J = 300
Divide both sides by 15:
J = 300/15
J = 20
Jenkins used theirs for 20 hours
Price used theirs for 45-20 = 25 hours.
Answer:

XW=WY=12
If the opposite angle is 30, the hypotenuse is double the small side.
XZ=XW=2·12=24
Michael owns a small paper company called Michael Scott Paper Co. He has 5 clients and needs to sell them each a specific amount of paper. They have each ordered 3 3/10 worth of boxes. He has to find out how many paper boxes he has to sell and how much extra paper (in tenths) he has total.
