You and your friend each collect rocks and fessis your friend collects three times as many roots and half as many fossils as you

n200080 [17]

Answer:

Number of rocks and fossils collected by you is 1 and 24 respectively

Number of rocks and fossils collected by your friend is 3 and 12 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of Rocks you collect be x

Let the number of Fossils you collect be y

Then the total number pf objects you collected will be

x + y = 25

x = 25 - y------------------------------(1)

Your friend collects three times as many rocks and half as many fossils as you.

This can be written as

3x + y (1/2) = 15

3x + (y/2) = 15-------------------(2)

Substituting (1) in (2)

3(25 - y) + (y/2) = 15

75 - 3y + (y/2) = 15

Grouping the like terms we get,

75 - 15 = 3y = (y/2)

60 = ( 6y - y /2)

60 x 2 = 6y -y

120 = 5y

y = 120/5

y = 24

Substituting y value in equation(1) we get

x = 25 - 24

x= 1

y= 24

Friends collects 3 times rock

so collects 3x =3(1) = 3rocks

Also he collects half as many fossils

That is

y/2 = 24/2 = 12 fossils

Hope this help you! :)

Which rational number equals 0 point 3 with bar over 3? Question 2 options: 1) 1 over 5 2) 1 over 3 3) 3 over 10 4) 3 over 5

Answer:

2) 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The repeating decimal can be converted to a fraction by multiplying it by 10^n and subtracting the original value. n = number of repeating digits. This process cancels all of the repeating digits, so you can find the equivalent fraction.

$x=0.\overline{3}\\\\10x -x=3.\overline{3}-0.\overline{3}=3\\\\x=\dfrac{3}{9}\\\\0.\overline{3}=\dfrac{1}{3}$
