You train for the Olympics 120 minutes each day. How many days have you trained when you have jogged 1080 minutes?
a.11 days
b.12 days
c.5 days
d.9 days
( 4 / 7 ) x = - 16 Multiply both sides by 7
4 x = - 16 * 7
4 x = - 112 Divide both sides by 4
x = - 112 / 4 = - 28
Answer B
4 s + 13 + s = 2 s + 40 - 6
5 s + 13 = 2 s + 34 Subtract 2 s to both sides
5 s + 13 - 2 s = 2 s + 34 - 2 s
3 s + 13 = 34 Subtract 13 to both sides
3 s + 13 - 13 = 34 - 13
3 s = 21 Divide both sides by 3
s = 21 / 3 = 7
Answer D
1080 / 120 minutes each day = 1080 / 120 = 9 days
