Answer: 27

Step-by-step explanation:

If they won every 5 out of 6 that means they lost 1 game since 6 - 5 = 1

So make a proportion and cross multiply:

1/6 = x/162 ---> 1 * 162/6 = 27

Answer:

144

Step-by-step explanation:

10 x 5 = 50

10 x 6 = 60

54 out of 60 won which means 108 out of 120 won

7 x 6 = 42

42 - 6 = 36

36 out of 42 won

108 + 36 = 144 won

Answer:

12. Option b: 20 is the correct answer.

13. Option a: A rose costs $1 more than a daisy is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

12. Given that:

15x+10y=700 Eqn 1

x+y=60 Eqn 2

To find x, we will eliminate y be multiplying Eqn 2 by 10

10(x+y=60)

10x+10y=600 Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(15x+10y)-(10x+10y)=700-600

15x+10y-10x-10y=100

5x=100

Dividing both sides by 5

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{100}{5}\\x=20$

Hence,

Option b: 20 is the correct answer.

13. Given that:

5x+4y=32 Eqn 1

x+6y=22 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 5

5(x+6y=22)

5x+30y=110 Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 3

(5x+30y)-(5x+4y)=110-32

5x+30y-5x+4y=78

26y=78

Dividing both sides by 26

$\frac{26y}{26}=\frac{78}{26}\\y=3$

Putting y=3 in Eqn 2

x+6(3)=22

x+18=22

x=22-18

x=4

Hence,

Option a: A rose costs $1 more than a daisy is the correct answer.

Use conversion factors to find the answer, distance tracked in feet after 12 seconds at 87 miles per hour.

Assoli18 [71]

1 hour=3600 seconds
1 mile=5280 feet
87 miles/hr (1 hr/3600 sec)(5280 ft/mile)=127.6 feet/sec

Distance= Rate*time
d=127.6(12)=1531.2 feet (after 12 seconds)
