Answer:

Andrew walks more steps than Sarah.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Andrew and Sarah are tracking the number of steps they walk. Andrew records that he can walk 6000 steps in 50 minutes. Sarah writes the equation y=118x, where y is the number of steps and x is the number of minutes she walks, to describe her step rate. This week, Andrew and Sarah each walk for a total of 5 hours. Who walks more steps?

Solution:

Given:

Andrew walks 6000 steps in 50 minutes.

Number of steps Sarah walks is given by the equation :

y=118x

where y is the number of steps and x is the number of minutes she walks.

Finding the number of steps each walks in 5 hours.

Total number of minutes in 5 hours = 5\times 60 = 300\ min

For Andrew:

Using unitary method:

If in 50 minutes Andrew walks = 6000 steps.

In 1 minute he will walk = \frac{6000}{50} = 120 steps

In 300 minutes he will walk = 120\times 300 = 36000 steps

Thus, Andrew will walk 36,000 steps in 5 hours.

For Sarah:

We will plugin x=300 in the equation and solve for y.

We have:

y=118(300)

∴ y=35400

Thus, Sarah will walk 35,400 steps in 5 hours.

Therefore, Andrew walks more steps than Sarah as 36,000>35,400.

Answer:

2x+3y+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we remove the parenthesis since there is nothing in front of it.

There is a “+” sign in front of the parenthesis, it stays the same.

Secondly, we combine like terms. We combine the x’s, the y’s, and the normal numbers without a variable.

Finally, after combining the like terms. You end up with “2x+3y+5”.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
140:\bold{2}=70\\\\70:\bold{2}=35\\\\35:\bold{5}=7\\\\7:\bold{7}=\underline{1}

so:

140=2\cdot2\cdot5\cdot7=\boxed{2^2\cdot5\cdot7}
