Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total for football: 9 +7

Total for figure skating: 12 +7

NEW Total for football: 16

NEW Total for figure skating: 19

The question says that 9 people like football

The question says that 12 people like to watch figure skating

The question also says that 7 people like to watch both, and because of that, you should add 7 to both 9 and 12, but keep the new numbers separated from each other. So once we know the sum of 9 +7 is 16, and 12 + 7 is 19, we can subtract the two numbers, and get 3 as the answer. Because you are counting the number of times that you have to travel up or down to the other number, and so if you are on a set of stairs that go up to the 16 level and you are on the 14th level, you need to travel up 2 sets of stairs to get to level 16.

Hope that example helps and can help in the future with other problems!

Two houses on the same side of the street have house numbers that are consecutive
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

28 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

'x' = 1st consecutive #

'x+2' = 2nd consecutive #

x + x+2 = 58

2x + 2 = 58

2x = 56

x = 28

x+2 = 30

Two cars travel at the same speed to different destinations. Car A reaches its destination in 17 minutes. Car B reaches its dest
Goryan [66]

Answer:

speed of car A =Speed of car B=0.8 miles/minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that speed of car A is equal to speed of car B.

Also let car A travels x miles.

and car B travels y miles.

Car A  reaches its destination in 17 minutes.

this means that speed of car A is given by:  \dfrac{x}{17} miles/minutes  ( since speed is defined as the ratio of distance and time).

Car B reaches its destination in 32 minutes.

This means that the speed of car B is given by: \dfrac{y}{32} miles/minutes

as speed of both cars are equal this means:

\dfrac{x}{17}=\dfrac{y}{32}------(1)

Also we are given Car B travels 12 miles farther than Car A.

this means y-x=12

y=12+x------(2)

on using equation (1) and (2) we have:

\dfrac{x}{17}=\dfrac{12+x}{32}\\  \\32x=17(12+x)\\\\32x=17\times12+17x\\\\32x-17x=17\times12\\\\15x=122\times17\\\\x=13.6

Hence the speed of car A is 0.8 miles/minutes  ( since x/17 is the speed of car A)

Speed of car B=0.8 miles/minutes.

Answer:

El Dr. Potter aplicó 32 vacunas de polio y 28 de sarampión.

Step-by-step explanation:

- First, the data must be taken into account to create the equations:

  •  X + Y = 60;    (Equation 1)

- Where:

 X = Number of polio vaccines and Y = Number of measles vaccines.

  •  4X + 2Y = 184;     (Equation 2)

Where for each polio vaccine there are 4 doses and for each measles vaccine there are 2 doses.

- We clear the variable that we want to find in each equation:

  • Y = 60 - X;     (And we call it equation 3)
  • Y = (184-4X) / 2;     (And we call it equation 4)

- Now both equations are equalized in terms of the same variable:

  • 60 - X = (184 - 4X) / 2

- Then X is cleared to find its value:

  • 120 - 2X = 184 - 4X
  • 4X - 2X = 184 - 120
  • 2X = 64
  • X = 32

- Now we demonstrate the value of X obtained in equation 1 or 2 to give the values ​​of Y

  • (32) + Y = 60
  • Y = 60 - 32
  • Y = 28

- Finally, both values ​​are used to see if equation 2 gives us the correct data:

  • 4 (32) + 2 (28) = 184
  • 128 + 56 = 184

- The answer is given:

Dr. Potter gave 32 polio and 28 measles vaccines.
