Nick is now seven times as old as Harry. In 6 years, Nick will be five times as old as Harry. How old will Harry be in 6 years?If x represents Harry's age now, then which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: i think its 7x+6=5(x+6) if  its wrong then me so sorry. its the answer i chose tho
Answer 2
Answer: Let x represent Harry's age now, and Nick's age now is 7x. [t] 
In 6 years, Harry is x + 6 , and it is given that Nick's age will be 5(x+6). [t+6] 

Combining [t] and [t+6], 7x + 6 = 5(x+6). 
So the formula 7x + 6 = 5(x+6) represents the problem.

And x = 12 , so Harry's age in 6 years will be x +6 or 18 years .

I hope this helps!

The Smiths are sending out a batch of holiday cards. Emily signed 2/5 of the cards. Then Josh signed 1/9 of the remaining cards. Tatiana signed 20% of what Josh had left. If there were 75 cards in all, how many cards are left to be signed? There are____ cards yet to be signed.

Answers

There are 32 cards left

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

start with 75 cards.  Emily did 2/5 of the 75 cards = 30 cards (75 divided by 5 times 2)

75-30=45 cards

Josh signed 1/9 which you have to convert to irregular fraction (45 divided by 9 =5) so 45-5=40 left

Of those left Tatiana completed 20% (40*.20=8)

so 40-8=32

Newton and his friends were watching a movie. They watch 50% of the movie and then take a break. Then they watch the remaining 65 minutes of the movie. How long was the whole movie

Answers

The length of the whole movie was 130 minutes.

Let's call the length of the whole movie "x". According to the problem, Newton and his friends watch 50% of the movie before taking a break. This means they watched 0.5x minutes of the movie.

After the break, they watch the remaining 65 minutes of the movie. So the total time they watched the movie is:

0.5x + 65

But we know that the total time they watched the movie is the same as the length of the whole movie "x". So we can set these two expressions equal to each other and solve for "x":

0.5x + 65 = x

Subtracting 0.5x from both sides, we get:

65 = 0.5x

Dividing both sides by 0.5, we get:

x = 130

Therefore, the length of the whole movie was 130 minutes.

the directions for lemonade say to put 2 cups of liquid concentrate into 1 gallon of water. if you only want to make 1 pint of lemonade, how many fluid ounces of concentrate should you use

Answers

Answer:

We need 2 fluid ounces of the liquid.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

Ratio for the cups and the water = 2 cups : 1 gallon.

It is required to find the number of cups to be added in 1 pint of lemonade.

Since, we know,

1 cup = 8 ounces i.e. 2 cups = 16 ounces

1 pint = 16 ounces

1 gallon = 128 ounces

Thus, we have the relation between ratio of the cups and the liquid as,

(16)/(128)=(x)/(16)

i.e. x=(16* 16)/(128)

i.e. x=(256)/(128)

i.e. x = 2

Thus, we need 2 fluid ounces of the liquid.
