You divide each total amount by the number of persons Popcorn: 48/6 = 8 Licorice: 3 X 48 = 144 144/6 = 24 So each person ate 8 ounces of popcorn and 24 inches of licorice laces
Answer:
-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a given equation of a line, is the negative reciprocal of the original slope
Let :
T = Theresa age
H = her brother
We know :
T = H - 14
T + H = 35
Substitute T
H -14 + H = 35
2H - 14 = 35
2H = 49
H = 49/2 = 24.5
Since we know H = 24.5 we then can substitute it to either equation.
T = H - 14
T = 24.5 - 14
T = 10.5
Theresa is 10.5 years old
Her brother is 24.5 years old
Answer:
No, because 30 is not equal to 2.5 times 6
Step-by-step explanation:
2.5 times 6 = 15
Answer:
D = 20H
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount Troy (D, in dollars) charges to mow a lawn is proportional to the time (H, in hours) it takes him to mow the lawn.
Hence, we can write D = kH ......... (1), where k is a constant.
Now, given that Troy charges $30 to mow a lawn that took him 1.5 hours to mow.
So, from equation (1) we get
30 = 1.5k
⇒ k = 20.
Therefore, equation (1) becomes D = 20H (Answer)
