Assume that the number of leaves raked by Adam is x.
Tapiwa raked 5% more leaves than Adam, this means that:
Leaves raked by Tapiwa = x + 0.05x = 1.05x liters
We are given that the total number of raked leaves is 697 liters.
This means that:
Total raked = raked by Adam + raked by Tapiwa
697 = x + 1.05x
697 = 2.05x
x = 697 / 2.05
x = 340
Based on the above calculations:
Adam raked 340 liters of leaves
Tapiwa raked 1.05(340) = 357 liters of leaves

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2x - 5) = 9(10 - x)
6x-15=90-9x
6x+9x=90+15
15x=105
x=7
Remember yo can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
so
remember distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac
so first distribute
2(3x)+2(-9)=18x
6x-18=18x
minus 6x both sides
-18=12x
divide both sides by 12
-18/12=x
-9/6=x
-3/2=x
easier way is to first divide both sides by 2
x=-3/2
