Answer:

Number\ of\ chicken\ rings=5\\\\Number\ of\ onion\ rings=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let\ number\ of\ chicken\ rings=x\\\\Number\ of\ onion\ rings=Number\ of\ chicken\ rings+5=x+5\\\\

Calories:

Calories\ in\ 1\ chicken\ ring=45\\\\Total\ calories\ because\ of\ onion\ ring=45\times Number\ of\ onion\ ring\\\\Total\ calories\ because\ of\ onion\ ring=45\times(x+5)=45x+225\\\\Calories\ in\ 1\ onion\ ring=65\\\\Total\ calories\ because\ of\ chicken\ ring=65\times Number\ of\ chicken\ ring\\\\Total\ calories\ because\ of\ chicken\ ring=65x\\\\Total\ calories=Calories\ because\ of\ onion\ ring+Calories\ because\ of\ chicken\ ring\\\\Total\ calories=45x+225+65x\\\\Tota\ calories=110x+225

Given\ total\ calories=775\\\\110x+225=775\\\\110x=775-225\\\\110x=550\\\\x=5\\\\Number\ of\ chicken\ rings=5\\\\Number\ of\ onion\ rings=5+5=10

forsale [732]

Let D be dogs and C be cats

<em>dogs, d, is initially five less than twice the number of cats, c</em>

D + 5 = 2C

<em>If she decides to add three more of each, the ratio  of cats to dogs will be</em>

D + 8 = 2C + 3

<em>Could Bea's Pet Shop initially have 15 cats and 20 dogs?</em>

Simply plug in the numbers

20 + 5 = 2(15)

This is clearly not true: 25 does not equal 30

Miguel and Maria are washing the windows in their home. Together, they can complete the task in 1 hours. If Maria can wash windo
Orlov [11]
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
 x: amount of time Miguel uses to complete the task.
 y: amount of time Maria uses to complete the task.
 We write the system of equations:
 x + y = 60
 y = (1/2) x
 Solving the system we have:
 x = 40 minutes
 y = 20 minutes
 Answer:
 
it take her to wash them by herself about:
 
y = 20 minutes

Two friends went rowing on the river. They first traveled with current for 3 hours. The way back took them 4 hours and 48 minute
kaheart [24]

Answer:

1.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of boat be x

let speed of current be c

Also, note D = RT

D is distance

R is rate

T is time

Now, for first leg, we can write:

(x+c)3 = D

And for second leg , we can write:

(x-c)4.8 = D  [note 4 hour 48 minutes is 4.8 hours]

We can equate both D's to get:

(x+c)3 = (x-c)4.8

3x + 3c = 4.8x - 4.8c

7.8c = 1.8x

We know x = 6.5 [given], plugging it in and solving for c:

7.8c = 1.8(6.5)

c = 1.5

Speed of Current = 1.5 miles per hour
