Answer:

3x + 10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This is calculated as:

Length of Tom's pencil - Length is Ellen's pencil

Length of Tom's pencil: 5x+25cm long.

Length of Ellen's pencil : 2x+15cm long.

(5x + 25)cm - (2x + 15)cm

5x + 25 - 2x - 15

5x - 2x + 25 - 15

3x + 10 cm

Therefore, Tom's pencil is 3x + 10cm longer is than Ellen's.

1. Mr. Samuel had 13 notes in his wallet. They consist of $1. $5 and $10 notes. The total amount of the notes adds up to $93. Ho
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

8 $10 notes

Step-by-step explanation:

I started by working it backwards. $93-$3 equals $90. So we have three of our 13 notes. We need ten more. Well the most $10 notes we can have is 8. if we had 8 $10 notes that would give us $80. $90-$80=10. We can take ten and divide it by five so we have 2 $5 notes.

So in total he would have 8 $10 notes, 2 $5 notes, and $3 one dollar notes which adds up to 13 notes
