Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the number of rabbits is r, we can write the rabbits, horses, and hamsters in terms of r:

  • Rabbits: r
  • Horses: r-7
  • Hamsters: 3r

So the total amount of pets is r+(r-7)+3r=33:

  • r+(r-7)+3r=33
  • Remove parenthesis, r+r-7+3r=33
  • Combine like terms, 5r-7=33
  • Add, 5r=40
  • Divide, r=8

Check your work:

  • Rabbits: 8
  • Horses: 8-7=1
  • Hamsters: 3(8)=24
  • Total: 8+1+24=33

A bridge has a length of 1,000 ft., a width of 300 ft., and a height of 50 ft. The bridge has four lanes of equivalent width tha
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

450 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Each lane is standard 75 ft hence the additional 2 lanes will be 3*75=150

Adding 150 ft to the original width of 300 ft we obtain width as 150+300=450 ft

Alternatively, since the standard width of a lane is given as 75 ft then to get width of 6 lane road will be the product of the number of lanes and lane width ie 6*75 ft=450 ft

Therefore, the new width is 450 ft
