Total weight = 50 lb
x = number of 3-lb weights
y = number of 10-lb weights

weight of 3-lb weights = 3x
weight of 10-lb weights = 10y
total weight = 3x + 10y

equation
3x + 10y = 50

Kendra charges $11 to shovel a driveway. She shoveled 4 driveways on Saturday and then some more on Sunday. She made $143 for th
White raven [17]

Let number of driveways , she shoveled on Sunday = x

And for 4 driveways , Kendra charges = 4*11=44

Therefore,

143 = 44 + 11x

And that's the model for the given situation .

Subtracting 44 from both sides,

143-44 = 11x

99 = 11x

Dividing both sides by 11

x = 9

Therefore she shoveled 9 driveways on Sunday .

Melinda paints 7/8 of a wall in 1 1/6 hours. what part of a wall does Melinda paint in 1 minute
marissa [1.9K]
1 1/6 hours is equal to 60 minutes add 10 minutes = 70 minutes
7/8 takes 70 minutes
To find out what can be done in 10 minutes, divide both numbers by 7
7/8 / 7 = 1/8
1/8 takes 10 minutes
To find out how much is painted in 1 minute, divide both by 10
1/8 / 10 = 1/80

1/80 takes 1 minute

$1.12 for 8.2 ounces? Unit Rate
Reil [10]
That is around 13 or 14 cents. The specific answer is 13.65853659 cents, but you can either round up to 14 or round down to 13 (rounding up to 14 is the correct way to do it.)

First you divide 1.12 by 8.2 to get the unit rate because It takes $1.12 to buy 8.2 ounces. 1.12/8.2=13.65853659
