Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Hunter and Logan built small sand towers on the beach.

Hunter built 20 towers, and Logan built 9 towers.

Then, the ocean water came up and knocked down 6 of the towers.

<u>Question asked:</u>

How many of the boys' sand towers were left standing?

<u>Solution</u>:

Number of towers made by Hunter = 20

Number of towers made by Logan = 9

Total towers made by both = 20 + 9 = 29

Number of towers knocked down by the ocean water = 6

Remaining number of towers = 29 - 6 = 23

Thus, 23 sand towers of the boys were left standing.

at shop and shop ,shaquana buys 3 pounds of squash and 2 pounds of eggplants and pays $2.85.then ,evelyn buys 4 pounds of squash
Montano1993 [528]

Each pound of squash cost $0.49 while each pound of eggplant cost $0.69.

Let x represent the cost of each pound of squash and y represent the cost of each pound of eggplant.

3 pounds of squash and 2 pounds of eggplants cost $2.85. Hence:

3x + 2y = 2.85   (1)

4 pounds of squash and 5 pounds of eggplants cost $5.41. Hence:

4x + 5y = 5.41   (2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

x = 0.49, y = 0.69

Each pound of squash cost $0.49 while each pound of eggplant cost $0.69.
