Answer:

\large \boxed{\sf \ \ 69 \ \textbf{touchdowns } 11 \ \textbf{field goals } \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

Touchdown is 7 points, field goals is 3 points

Let's note a the number of touchdowns and b the number of field goals, we can write

   (1)    a + b = 80

   (2)    7a + 3b = 516

(2) - 3*(1) gives

7a + 3b - 3(a + b) = 516 - 3*80

<=> 7a + 3b -3a - 3b = 516 - 240 = 276

<=> 4a = 276

<=> a=\dfrac{276}{4}=69

And then from (1) b = 80 - 69 = 11

Hope this helps

belka [17]

Answer: Mrs.Buller collects a 500-ml sample of seawater for her chemistry class, and it has 1.94% of chlorine, we have to determine the amount of chlorine in the sample:

\begin{gathered} C=\frac{1.94}{100}\times500=9.7ml \\ C=9.7ml \end{gathered}

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

2x+5\ minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sam takes x minutes yo walk from home to library.

And takes 5 minutes more to walk from the library to school than from home to the library.

Express the total time taken for Sam to walk from home to school via the library in terms of x.

<u>Solution:</u>

Time taken by Sam to walk from home to library = x\ minutes

Time taken by Sam to walk from library to school = x+5\ minutes

Total time taken by Sam to walk from home to school via the library = Time taken to walk from home to library + Time taken to walk from library to school

Total time taken = x+x+5=2x+5

Therefore, the total time taken for Sam to walk from home to school via the library is 2x+5\ minutes
