Answer: After 5 bags of mulch, the cost for both companies will be the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost for Company can be represented by the equation: y= 10m+100
The cost for Company B can be represented by the equation: y= 30m
To find the amount of mulch, their cost needs to be the same, I will solve for m
10m+100=30m
-10m 10m
100=20m
Divide both side by 20
100/20=20m/20
5=m or m=5
So after 5 bags of mulch, the total cost for both companies is the same.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>We can't multiply.</u>
<u>We got to count up by 12's for each 1/2 hour.</u>
12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, 168.
<u>Simplified:</u>
- 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168.
<u>Estimate:</u>
- 12 = 1/2 hour
- 24 = 1 hour
- 36 = 1 1/2 hours
- 48 = 2 hours
- 60 = 2 1/2 hours
- 72 = 3 hours
- 84 = 3 1/2 hours
- 96 = 4 hours
- 108 = 4 1/2 hours
- 120 = 5 hours.
- 132 = 5 1/2 hours
- 144 = 6 hours
- 156 = 6 1/2 hours
- 168 = 7 hours.
Answer is 168.
The oldest son will get $370, the middle will get $220 and the youngest will get $185.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Total amount to be split = $775
Let,
Oldest son's share = x
Middle son's share = y
Youngest son's share = z
According to given statement;
x+y+z=775 Eqn 1
the oldest gets twice as much as the youngest
x = 2z Eqn 2
the middle son gets $35 more than the youngest
y = z+35 Eqn 3
Putting value of x and y from Eqn 2 and 3 in Eqn 1

Dividing both sides by 4

Putting z=185 in Eqn 2

Putting z=185 in Eqn 3

The oldest son will get $370, the middle will get $220 and the youngest will get $185.
