Answer: Jeremy drove 84 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of miles that Brenda drove.
If Jeremy drove twice
as far as Brenda, it means that the distance covered by Jeremy would be 2x miles
When they stopped after some time, they were already
126 miles apart. This means that the total distance covered by both of them is 126 miles. Therefore,
x + 2x = 126
3x = 126
x = 126/3
x = 42 miles
The number of miles that Jeremy drove is
42 × 2 = 84 miles
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
because All Of The Value Of X Is The Same
The number is (20 x 19 x 18 x 17) / (4 x 3 x 2). That's 4,845 . None of the choices is correct.
Answer:
42 ounces of yellow paint.
Step-by-step explanation:
- To make three cups of dark orange, you just need to remember that to make one cup you need: 7 ounces of red paint and 1 ounce of yellow paint. Then, to make three cups, we just have to multiply these proportions by three,which means 7x3 ounces of red paint =21 ounces of red paint, plus 3x1 ounces of yellow paint =3 ounces of yellow paint. Then we need 21 ounces of red paint and 3 of yellow paint to make three cups of dark orange.
- To make one cup of light orange, we need 13 ounces of yellow paint, and 3 ounces of red paint. Then, to make three cups, we just multiply this proportion by 3, as follows: 13x3 ounces of yellow paint = 39; and 3x3 ounces of red paint =9. Then we need 9 ounces of red paint and 39 of yellow paint to make three cups of light orange.
- Adding up the amount of ounces we need to make dark orange and light orange, we get a total amount of 21+9=30 ounces of red paint and 3+39=42 ounces of yellow paint to make three cups of light orange and three cups of dark orange.
