So k=katie's' age
m=mara's age

k is 2 times as old as m
k=2m

sum is 24
add means sum
k+m=24

so we have
k+m=24 and
k=2m
subsitute
2m+m=24
add
3m=24
divide both sides by 3
m=8
subsitute again
k=2m
k=2(8)
k=16

katie=16
mara=8

one pipe fills a store pool in 12 hours. A second pipe fills the same pool in 6 hours. When a third pipe is added and all three
Alina [70]

Answer:

x  = 12  hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If one pipe fills store pool in 12 hours   in 1 hour will fill 1/12 of the pool

If one pipe fills a store pool in 6 hours in 1 hour will fill 1/6 of the pool

Let call " x " number of hours needed by the third pipe to fills the pool

then in 1 hour  will fill 1/x

The three pipes working together in 1 hour will fill

1/12  +  1/6  + 1/x

Now we know that the three pipes take 3 hours to fill the pool then in 1 hour three pipes will fill 1/3 of the pool, therefore

1/12  +  1/6  + 1/x  = 1/3

( x + 2*x + 12) /12*x  = 1/3   ⇒ ( 3*x +12 )/ 12*x = 1/3

9*x  + 36  = 12*x

- 3*x  = - 36

x  = 36/3

x  = 12  hours

The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2 left-bracket (12 + 2 x) + (15 + 2 x) right-bracket = 74. What is t
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do the step by step calculation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(12+2x+15+2x)=74

(2)(12)+(2)(2x)+(2)(15)+(2)(2x)=74(Distribute)

24+4x+30+4x=74

(4x+4x)+(24+30)=74(Combine Like Terms)

8x+54=74

8x+54=74

Step 2: Subtract 54 from both sides.

8x+54−54=74−54

8x=20

Step 3: Divide both sides by 8.

8x divide by 8 and that is 20 divided by 8

leaves you with the answer 5/2.

If you then turn the improper fraction into a mixed fraction you get 2 and one half.

Answer= 2 1/2 or "a" <u>DEPENDS ON WHAT QUIZ YOU HAVE</u>

Peace!
