Answer:
Maggie spent =30
Karen spent = 10
Jasmine spent =20
Step-by-step explanation:
In this we use algebra to solve.we give the sisters unknowns, to help us solve the equation.
we dont know how much jasmine used so we give her the unknown x.you can use any letter but ill us x.
karen used half as much as karen so we give her 1/2x because it was half of jasmine.maggie used 3 times that of karen so w give her 3(1/2x).
maggie =3(1/2x)
Karen =1/2x
jasmine =x
3(1/2x) + 1/2x + x = 60
3/2x + 1/2x + x = 60
2x + x = 60
3x=60
x=20
where we have x =we replace with 20
e.g karen 1/2x => 1/2 x 20 =10
if you need any clarifications please do tell me in the comment section.i would like to help more if you need help.thx
Hope this helps and if it does mark as branliest anwer thx
You might have made an error the first time you solved for x. I got x = -0.5.
When you have your log base 4, the way you cancel that out is by making 4 the base on both sides, so you get 4^(log4) to reduce to 1, and you're left with:
2x + 3 = 4^(1/2) ... Simplify
2x + 3 = 2
2x = -1
x = -1/2
If you plug that back in, everything checks out. Maybe double check your use of logarithm/exponent properties?
775 miles. Divide 7.75 by .5 and then times the answer by 50.
