Answer:
Red = 10 cm, blue = 14 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Let the length of each red rod be </em><em>r </em><em>and each blue rod be </em><em>b</em>
<u>Then we have:</u>
<u>Multiply the first equation by 3 and the second one by 2:</u>
<u>Add the equations to eliminate one of variables:</u>
<u>Find the value of b:</u>
- 3*10 -2b = 2
- 30 - 2 = 2b
- 2b = 28
- b = 14 cm

Define x :
-----------------------------------------------
Let the smallest number be x.
The other two numbers will be x+1 and x+2.
-----------------------------------------------
Construct equation :
-----------------------------------------------
The sum of all 3 numbers is 78
⇒ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 78
-----------------------------------------------
Solve x :
-----------------------------------------------
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 78
3x + 3 = 78
3x = 78 - 3
3x = 75
x = 25
-----------------------------------------------
Answer: Smallest number = 25

Answer:
4.34
Step-by-step explanation:
2.48/40=0.062 per ounce
0.062 x 70 = 4.32 for 70 ounces
Answer:
1. More magnets are longer than 2 1/2
2. 10 magnets measure in whole numbers and 5 magnets between 2 whole numbers
3. Because the shortest magnet is 1 inch and the longest magnet is 4 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. There are 7 magnets that are longer than 7 1/2 and only 6 magnets that are shorter than 2 1/2. (The 2 magnets that are exactly 2 1/2 are neither longer nor shorter therefore they do not apply to the question.)
The father hippo weighs 6,204 pounds.
You subtract the weight of the other hippos from the total weight of the family to get this.
