Answer: In the beginning he was given 27 sweets.
Step-by-step explanation: The most logical thing to do is to solve it backwards, that is, from what he had at the end of the third day up till the beginning of the first day.
On the third day he ate one-third and had 8 sweets left over. To determine how many he started with on the third day, let the total on day three be called a. If one-third of a is eaten, then the left over which is two-thirds is 8. That is;
8/a = 2/3
By cross multiplication we now have
8 x 3 = 2a
24/2 = a
a = 12
Let the number of sweets he had on day two be called b. If he ate one-third of b and he had 12 left over, then the two-thirds left over is 12 and we now have;
12/b = 2/3
By cross multiplication we now have
12 x 3 = 2b
36 = 2b
36/2 = b
b = 18
Let the number of sweets he had on day one be called x. If he ate one-third of x and he had 18 left over, then the two-thirds left over is 18, and we now have;
18/x = 2/3
By cross multiplication we now have
18 x 3 = 2x
54 = 2x
x = 27
Therefore Tim was given 27 sweets at the beginning.
Simplify 3 to 12
Divide 3
1 to 4
So the answer is 1 car accident in 4 month

4x = 7*10
4x = 70
x = 70/4
x = 17.5
17.5 minutes = x
It is B. Since each angle is 60 degrees, if you rotate B counterclockwise 6 times, it means that you rotated B 360 degrees. Therefore, the image of B would be B.

Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
In this exercise, we have an equation. On the left side we have a straight line with slope
and there is no any y-intercept. On the right side, on the other had, we also have a straight line, but the slope here is
. Therefore, by plotting these two straight lines, we have that the solution is the origin, that is, the point
.
