4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

let age of samantha be 3x and age of jason be x.(since samantha is three times as old as jason)

Now,

3x+x=56 (sum of their ages is 56)

or 4x=56

or x=56/4

or x=14

therefore age of samantha=3x=3×14=42

age of jason = x = 14

One desk requires 84 inches of a type of trim. Find the length of trim needed in inches for 5 desks. Then convert your answers t
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

420 inches or 35 feet of trim is needed for 5 desks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that one desk requires 84 inches, so we need to find out how many inches are needed for 5 desk.

If we know one desk needs 84 inches then we have 1 desk = 84 inches.

To get 5 desk, we need to multiply both sides by 5.

1 desk = 84 inches. (multiply by 5 for both sides)

5 desks = 84 * 5

5 desks = 420 inches

We know now that 5 desks require 420 inches, but many people use feet instead.

There are 12 inches in 1 foot, so we need to divide 420 inches by 12 inches to get how many feet we need.

420/12 = 35 feet.

Hope this helps!
