Answer:
2 x plus 3 y equals 26. X plus 4 y equals 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of tiles, = x
Number of pints of paint, = y
Store 1:
Cost per tile = $2 ; cost per pint = $3 ; total cost = $26
Store 2 :
Cost per tile = $1 ; cost per pint = $4 ; total cost = $18
System of equation:
2x + 3y = 26 - - - (1)
x + 4y = 18 - - - - - (2)
Let Ted be x.
Ed is 7 years older = x + 7
Ed = (3/4)Ted
(x + 7) = (3/4)x
x + 7 = 3x/4
x - 3x/4 = -7
x/4 = -7
x = -28, Ted = -28 years.
(x + 7) = -28 + 7 = -21, Ed = -21 years
Goodness. We had negative numbers for the ages, well does that make sense? No it doesn't.
Our answer is correct. But the sense in the question is lacking. The question has been wrongly set.
<span>We might assume negative ages to mean before they came into the world, before birth! </span>
Your answer that you are looking for is 108.
Running 2 miles at 8:15 per mile takes 16:30 minutes.
Running 3 miles at 7:12 per mile takes 21:36 minutes.
The total running time is 16:30 + 21:36 = 38:06 minutes. That length of time after 6:52 am is 7:30:06 am.
You get home for breakfast at 6 seconds past 7:30 am.
