Answer:
Jen ate 18 jujubes
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with Kim. She was given 10. There is no remainder.
Kyle kept 8 from the total he was given, so Kyle had 18.
Let the number of Jujubes given to Jen = x
(1/2) x = 18 Multiply both sides by 2
2(1/2)x = 18*2
x = 36
Jen ate 1/2 of 36 which was 18.
Though you are not asked, Sam must have begun this with 2*36 = 72 Jujubes.
Answer: The girl herself ran faster than her friend.
Step-by-step explanation:
This answer, of course assumes a lot of variables, but for the sake of keeping things simple, lets assume the following, the people are ran in a "straight line" with no "obstacles" in their way, and ran on the same track.
Calculating in meters-per-second for the girl who ran 200 meters in 28 seconds, you get 7.14285714286 meters per second
Calculating in meters-per-second for the girl who ran 400 meters in 60 seconds, you get 6.66666666667 meters per second
Comparing the two results, it can be "accurately" concluded that the girl herself ran faster than her friend under the following assumptions earlier stated.
We have to set up 2 different equations if we are to solve for 2 unknowns. The first equation is x = y + 4. One number (x) is (=) 4 more than another (y + 4). Since we have determined that x is larger (cuz it's 4 more than y), when we set up their difference, we are going to subtract y from x cuz x is bigger. The second equation then is
. In our first equation we said that x = y + 4, so let's sub that value in for x in the second equation:
. Expand that binomial to get
. Of course the y squared terms cancel each other out leaving us with 8y + 16 = 64. Solving for y we get that y = 6. Subbing 6 in for y in our first equation, x = 6 + 4 tells us that x = 10. Yay!
