Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Number of 40¢ = x
Number of 22¢ = 4x + 3
Total stamp value = $8.34 = (8.34 * 100) = 834¢
40¢x + 22¢(4x + 3) = 834¢
40x + 88x + 66 = 834
128x = 834 - 66
128x = 768
x = 768 / 128
x = 6
Number of 22¢ stamp:
4(6) + 3 = 24 + 3 = 27

2.5 hours
Divide the travelled miles by the amount of hours to get the travelled miles for one hour. (17 miles in 1 hour) Then divide 42.5 by 17 to get the amount of time it takes to go 42.5 miles. (42.5 miles in 2.5 hours)
Hope this helps!
x = 5 √ 2 +4 , − 5 √ 2 + 4
