Answer:
a. 
b. x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The number of home runs hit by Jack last season = x
It is given that Henry hit 3 more than half as many home runs as Jack hit.
Half of the runs hit by Jack = 
3 more than half the runs = 
So, the number of home runs hit by Henry = 
But, it is given that Henry hit a total of 8 runs.
Therefore, 
b. 
Subtract 3 from both sides.

= 5
x = 5 × 2
= 10
Hence, Jack hit 10 runs in the last season.
If the area of one is 20, that the area of 30 is 20*30=600 square inches.

A=futurer amount
P=present amount
r=rate in decimal
n=number of times compounded per year
t=time in years
A=2500
r=0.05
n=2
t=2




divide both sides by [tex} 1.025^{4} [/tex]
2264.88=P
