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

Sylvanite is a mineral that contains 28.0% gold by mass. Determine how much sylvanite would you need to dig up to obtain 81.0 g
lidiya [134]
Since Sylvanite only contains 28% gold by mass, then to obtain 81.0 grams of gold, x amounts of sylvanite must be mined. To determine x, we divide 81 grams by 28%. This equation is shown below:

0.28X = 81

X = 81/0.28
X = 289.29 grams

Therefore, 289.29 grams of sylvanite must be dug up to obtain 81 grams of gold.

Malachi bought a new fishing rod. The regular price of the fishing rod was $125.99. He bought it on sale with a 15% discount. Sa
Volgvan

If the discount is 15 percent, he still pays (100-15) or 85%

125.99 * 85%

125.99 * .85 = 107.09  is the price he pays for the rod

107.09 * .03 =3.21 is the sales tax

107.09+3.21=110.30 is the price of the rod with the discount and the tax
