Answer:

Ray = 19 yrs old
Tom = 25 yrs old
John = 57 yrs old

Explanation:

Let x be the years of Tom

R = x - 6
J = 3R = 3(x - 6)
T = x

R + J + T = 101
x - 6 + 3(x - 6) + x = 101
2x - 6 + 3x - 18 = 101
5x - 24 = 101
5x = 125
x = 125/5 = 25

R = 25 - 6 = 19
J = 3(25 - 6) = 57
T = 25

A book sold 31,700 copies in its first month of release. Suppose this represents 8.8% of the number of copies sold to date. How
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

For this case we propose a rule of three:

31700 ------------> 8.8%

x ----------------------> 100%

Where "x" represents the number of copies sold to date.

x = \frac {100 * 31700} {8.8}\\x = \frac {3170000} {8.8}\\x = 360,227.273

Thus, to date 360,227 copies of the book have been sold.

ANswer:

To date, 360,227 copies of the book have been sold.

A discount voucher offering 15% off is used to pay a bill.After using the voucher, the bill is reduced to ?36.72.How much was th
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

$43.20

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the original purchase price, write a proportion and solve. A proportion is an equation where two ratios are set equal.

If the discount if 15% then you pay 85%.

\frac{36.72}{y}= \frac{85}{100}

To solve for y, cross multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction.

36.72(100) = 85y

3672= 85y

43.2 = y

Workers on the assembly line produce 4x + 6 boats each day. Which expression shows how many boats they produced in 12 days?
vagabundo [1.1K]
The answer would be A. If 4x + 6 is the number of boats made in 1 day, then multiplying that by 12 would give us the number of boats made in 12 days so the equation would look like this:
12(4x + 6)
