First, Joe started the water and it was at full force. He filled it up to 9 inches. It took him 2 minutes to get to 9 inches. Then, he stopped it for 2 minutes because his mom called him to get a bar of soap. The water level was still at 9 inches when he stopped it. Then, he put the water to come down slowly because he wasn’t sure how much more he needed. He let the water go for 2 minutes. Then, he stopped the water when it was at 12 inches of water. He sat in the bath for 5 minutes until he decided he was to cold so he hopped out. The water then drained really fast. From 12 inches to 0 inches it took the bath 3 minutes.
Answer:
divide both sides of the equation by 2/3
(3)(17.25) = 51.75; he spent $51.75
Because everything in the problem is positive, no negative numbers are needed.
Answer:
Sue must score 94 on the final test to earn a B.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are five tests in total.
Sue's average on the first four tests is 84.
If after the final test, she scores X, she will have a B on average of five tests.
We have the following equation:
86 = (4 × 84 + X)/5
<=> X = 5 × 86 - 4 × 84
=> X = 94
