B = block p = park
2b + p = 10 min 2 runs around the block takes 10 minutes
2b + 3p = 22 min 2 runs around the block plus 3 runs around the park takes 22 minutes
To solve, I will use substitution. First, I will divide the first equation by 2 to get b by itself and subtract p from both sides to get b by itself. Then, substitute 5 - 1/2p in for b in the second equation because they have equal values. Then, subtract 10 from both sides to eliminate it. Divide by 2 to both sides to get 'p' by itself.
2b + p = 10 min ---------→b + 1/2p = 5 ----------→ b = 5 - 1/2p
2(5 - 1/2p) + 3p = 22 ---------→ 10 -p + 3p = 22 --------→ 10 + 2p = 22
10 + 3p = 22 ----------→ 2p = 12
2p = 12 -------------→ p = 6
It takes 6 minutes to jog around the park
Hope this helps!

Answer:
238 people
Step-by-step explanation:
68% of 350 is 238
Ii.First ,expand: 5(x-2)=32
5x-10=32
bring 10 to the other side (add it to 32)
5x=42
divide both sides by 5 to get x
x=42/5
x=8.4
iii.Expand 5+2(x+3)=21
5+2x+6=21
bring 5 and 6 to the other side
2x=21-5-6
2x=10 divide both sides by 2
x=5
Answer:
522.0
Step-by-step explanation:
10*6=60
60*8.7=522.0
or you can take out the zero either way that's the answer
