Answer:

Adam = 60

Brandon  = 66

Chen = 74

Damion = 75

Erica = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent each friend with the first letter of their name

So:

A + B + C =200

B + C + D = 215

C + D +E= 224

A + B + C + D + E = 350

D , E > C

Substitute: A + B + C =200 in A + B + C + D + E = 350

200 + D + E = 350

Collect like terms

D + E = 350-200

D + E = 150

Make D + E the subject in C + D +E= 224

D + E = 224 - C

Substitute D + E = 224 - C in D + E = 150

224 - C = 150

Collect like terms

C = 224 - 150

C = 74

Substitute C = 74 in A + B + C =200 and B + C + D = 215

A + B + 74 = 200

A + B =- 74 + 200

A + B =126

B + 74 + D = 215

B  + D = -74 + 215

B  + D = 141

So, we have:

A + B =126

B  + D = 141

D + E = 150

We have: D , E > C

i.e.

D , E > 74 and D + E = 150

For D , E > 74 and D + E = 150 to be true,

D = E = 75

i.e.

75 + 75 = 150

So, we have:

D = 75

E = 75

Solve for B

B  + D = 141

B + 75 = 141

B  = 141 - 75

B  = 66

Solve for A

A + B =126

A + 66 = 126

A = 126 - 66

A = 60

What number is to be multiplied with 1/3 to get 1/21
dybincka [34]

Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we do not know the number let us use the alphabet A to represent the unknown number

A × 1/3= 1/21

A/3= 1/21

Cross multiply both sides

A×21= 3×1

21A= 3

Divide both sides by the coefficient of A which is 21

21A/21=3/21

A=1/7

Hence the unknown number is 1/7

Emma went to a salon to get her hair cut. The price of the haircut is $65. She wants to leave a 20% tip. What is the total amoun
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

She should leave a total of $78.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we first need to find the tip amount. We can do this by multiplying the total by the tip percentage.

$65 * 20% = $13

Now that we have that, we need to add it to the cost.

$65 + $13 = $78
