Add all the times together:
10 + 25 + 15 = 50 minutes total.
For the ratio divide the time for weights by total time:
25/50 which reduces to 1/2
The ratio is 1/2
To find the amount he spent on bags of mulch you must take the cost of the shovel away from the total, giving the equation:
46.16-14.75=3.49x
To covert this to whole numbers, multiply by 100
4616-1475=349x
3141=349x
x=9
Answer:
x= -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute 4(2-4x) which leaves you with 8-16x-3x=65
combine the like terms which leaves you with 8-19x=65
subtract 8 from both sides 8-19x-8=65-8 which leaves you with -19x=57
lastly divide -19 from both sides which leaves you with x= -3
