Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+12=6x-18
2x=6x-30
-4x=-30
x=7.5
1/3 (3x+12)

Answer:
252 bags of maize
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are told that a farmer harvested maize
In the year 2012 = 144 bags of maize
In the year 2013(following year) the harvest decreased in the ratio 3:4
This means
3:4 = 2013: 2012.
Where number of bags harvested in 2013 = unknown = x
3/4 = x/ 144
Cross multiply 4x = 3 × 144
x = 3 × 144/ 4
× = 108
This means 108 bags of maize was harvested in 2013
The total number of bags harvested is = 108 + 144
= 252 bags of maize.
Answer:
• David
,
• 4 miles
Explanation:
In the graph:
The given locations are:
• Owen's House, A(11,3)
,
• David's House, B(15,13)
,
• School, C(3,18)
We determine both Owen's and David's distance from the school using the distance formula.

Owen's distance from school (AC)
![\begin{gathered} AC=\sqrt[]{(3-11)^2+(18-3)^2} \\ =\sqrt[]{(-8)^2+(15)^2} \\ =\sqrt[]{64+225} \\ =\sqrt[]{289} \\ AC=17\text{ miles} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20AC%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B%283-11%29%5E2%2B%2818-3%29%5E2%7D%20%5C%5C%20%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B%28-8%29%5E2%2B%2815%29%5E2%7D%20%5C%5C%20%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B64%2B225%7D%20%5C%5C%20%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B289%7D%20%5C%5C%20AC%3D17%5Ctext%7B%20miles%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
David's distance from school (BC)
![\begin{gathered} BC=\sqrt[]{(3-15)^2+(18-13)^2} \\ =\sqrt[]{(-12)^2+(5)^2} \\ =\sqrt[]{144+25} \\ =\sqrt[]{169} \\ BC=13\text{ miles} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20BC%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B%283-15%29%5E2%2B%2818-13%29%5E2%7D%20%5C%5C%20%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B%28-12%29%5E2%2B%285%29%5E2%7D%20%5C%5C%20%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B144%2B25%7D%20%5C%5C%20%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B169%7D%20%5C%5C%20BC%3D13%5Ctext%7B%20miles%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
We see from the calculations that David lives closer to the school, and by 4 miles.
