Since the ratio is 10:3 we can find the total number of children and adults by finding how many times 13 (10+3) goes into 39. 39 / 13 = 3 so we can take the original 10:3 ratio and just scale it up to fit the whole group 10:3 * 3 -> 30:9:

From here it gets a little easier we know three adults of the 30 get off at the next stop bringing us to 27. So now our ratio is 27:9 we can simplify that down to 3:1 to get our final answer. Hope that helps!

200 + 10x = 120 + 15x now solve the equation to find x, the number of hours that both companies will charge the same ammount
torisob [31]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation, 200 + 10x = 120 + 15x, let's solve for x as follows,

Subtract 200 from both sides

200 + 10x - 200 = 120 + 15x - 200

10x = - 80 + 15x

Subtract 15x from both sides

10x - 15x = - 80 + 15x - 15x

-5x = - 80

Divide both sides by -5

\frac{-5x}{-5} = \frac{-80}{5}

x = 16
