1/2 of the time
d=st
distance=speed times time
we want to find time
divide both sides by speed
d/s=t
d=20
s=40
20/40=t
1/2=t
this is in hours
she drove for 1/2 hour or 30 mins
Answer: One DVD is $12 and one book is $1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the DVD be d and the book be b.
Case 1:
3d + 4b = $40.......(1)
Case 2:
1d + 6b = $18........... (2)
In this equations above, I intend to eliminate variable d, so I'm going to multiply the coefficient of d in (1) to multiply (2)
3 × (1d + 6b = 18)
3d + 18b = 54........ .(3)
Then, subtract (1) from (3)
3d + 18b = 54
- ( 3d + 4b = 40)
3d - 3d + 18b - 4b = 54 - 40
0 + 14b = 14
b = 14/14
b = 1.
Then substitute 1 for b in (2)
1d + 6(1) = 18
d + 6 = 18
d = 18 - 6
d = 12.
(d,b) = (12,1)
The number of stone pavers needed to go round the patio is 3.
<h3>What is the number of
stone pavers needed to go round the
patio?</h3>
The first step is to determine the perimeter of the concrete patio.
Perimeter : 12 + 12 + 14 = 38 feet
Number of stone pavers needed to go round the patio : perimeter of the patio / length of each stone paver
38 / 14 = 3

Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 10 from 8 to get -2. Then divide -2x by itself so it will cancel out. Whatever you do to one side of the equation, do to the other so divide -2 by -2 to get your answer of 1
Answer:
Number of cookies sold by the Yummy Company = 32.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of cookies sold by the yummy company be x.
Then the number of pies sold by The Chipper Bakery is 3/4 x.
When they have 16, more we have:
Number sold by the Yummy company is x + 16 and the number sold by the Bakery is 5/6 (x + 16)
So x + 3/4x + 2(16) = x + 16 + 5/6(x + 16)
= 7/4 x + 32 = 11/6 x + 16 + 80/6
7/4 x - 11/6x = 16 + 80/6 - 32
-1/12 x = -2 2/3
x = -8/3 * -12
x = 32.
