Answer:
the answer is c
Step-by-step explanation:
Since jane weighs 126 and is gaining 3 pounds per month that would make the part of the equation that is 126+3m and since Cynthia weighs 134 and is gaining 2 pounds every month that is what makes the 134+2m part of the equation. And since the equation is 134+2m=126+3m then the goal is to find how many months it would take for their weights' to be equal. Sorry that my explaining skills are terrible hopefully I helped a little.
Answer:
56.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
56.3%
So,
We have three placeholders.
x, y, and z will represent the number of cookie boxes they sold for the first, second, and third weeks, respectively.
"The girls sold 5 more boxes the second week than they did the first."
x + 5 = y
"They doubled the sales of the second week for the third week."
z = 2y
"To sell a total of 431 boxes of cookies"
x + y + z = 431
Now we have our three equations.
x + 5 = y
z = 2y
x + y + z = 431
Obviously, we can substitute y and z in the last equation, because the other two open sentences tell us what they are.
x + (x + 5) + 2(x + 5) = 431
x + x + 5 + 2(x + 5) = 431
Collect Like Terms.
2x + 5 + 2(x + 5) = 431
Distribute.
2x + 5 + 2x + 10 = 431
Collect Like Terms.
4x + 15 = 431
Subtract 15 from both sides.
4x = 416
Divide both sides by 4.
x = 104
Now we can use the other two original sentences to figure out what y and z are.
x + 5 = y
104 + 5 = y
109 = y
z = 2y
z = 2(109)
z = 218
Now, to check, add x, y, and z.
x + y + z = 431
104 + 109 + 218 = 431
213 + 218 = 431
431 = 431 This checks.
The Girl Scouts sold 104 cookie boxes on the first week, 109 boxes on the second week, and 218 boxes on the third week.
Where is the line? Have a nice day
