Answer:

$42

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amounts received by Penny, Amjit and James be 3x, 6x and 4x respectively.

According to the given information:

Amount received by Amjit = Amount received by James + 28

So,

6x = 4x + 28

6x - 4x = 28

2x = 28

x = 28/2

x = 14

Amount of money received by Penny = 3x = 3*14 = $42

Answer:

<h2>50h miles</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

For us to write a math expression for the problem, we will use the formula for calculating speed.

Speed is the change of distance of a body with respect to time.

Mathematically, Speed = Distance/Time

Distance = Speed * Time

If Lumpy drove for h hours at 50 mph, then Lumpy speed = 50mph and time = h hours.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula to get the distance;

Distance = 50mph * h hours

Distance = 50h miles

<em>Hence the math expression that modeled how far Lumpy drive is 50h miles</em>

Henry ran five races, each of which was a different positive integer number of

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

10 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of miles on Henry's longest race.

We have been given that Henry ran five races, each of which was a different positive integer number of miles.

We can set an equation for the average of races as:

$\frac{\text{The sum distances of 5 races}}{5}=4$

As distance covered in each race is a different positive integer, so let his first four races be 1, 2, 3, 4.

Now let us substitute the distances of 5 races as:

$\frac{1+2+3+4+x}{5}=4$

$\frac{10+x}{5}=4$

Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 5.

$\frac{10+x}{5}*5=4*5$

$10+x=20$

Let us subtract 10 from both sides of our equation.

$10-10+x=20-10$

$x=10$

Therefore, the maximum possible distance of Henry's longest race is 10 miles.
