The answer is 16 because you have to solve for T which is 4 So you will multiply 4 times 4 because T is for 4 and you had to put parentheses around 4...4×4 is eight and you have to subtract 24-8 and it will give you 16
You run 0.5 miles every 3 minutes => 1 mile every 6 minutes. Your friend runs 2 miles every 14 minutes => 1 mile every 7 minutes. You run a whole number of miles every number of minutes that is a multiple of 6. Your freind runs a whole number of miles every number of minutes that is a multiple of 7 Then the least possible number of miles that you both run to end at the same time is the least common factor of 7 and 6 minutes. This is 7 * 6 = 42 minutes. You will have run 42 min / (6 miles/min) = 7 miles, and your friend will have run 42 min / (7 miles/min) = 6 miles
72 pints converted into gallons are 9 liquid gallons
X = smaller number, y = larger number
x + y = 15.....x = 15 - y
4x = 2y - 60
4(15 - y) = 2y - 60
60 - 4y = 2y - 60
60 + 60 = 2y + 4y
120 = 6y
120/6 = y
20 = y <==== larger number is 20
x + y = 15
x + 20 = 15
x = 15 - 20
x = - 5
