Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The distance travelled by Tim is 24 miles.

What is Ratio?

Ratio is defined as the relationship between two quantities where it tells how much one quantity is contained in the other.

The ratio of a and b is denoted as a : b.

Given that,

The distance travelled by Ben and Tim is in the ratio 3 : 4.

That is,

Distance travelled by Ben = 3x

Distance travelled by Tim = 4x

Here x is a constant

The distance travelled by Ben is 18 miles.

So, 3x = 18

x = 18 / 3 = 6

So the distance travelled by Tim = 4x = 4 × 6 = 24 miles

Hence the distance travelled by Tim is 24 miles.

Ella and Kate played basketball last year. Ella scored 16 points per game. Kate's total points for the season were 22 less than Ella's. The following expression shows Kate's total points: 16z-22 In the expression what does the variable z represent?

Answers

The total number of games!

In the given, it is stated that Ella scored 16 points per game and that the total points of Kate were 22 less than Ella's.

If we wish to get Kate's total points and letting x as the total number of games and y as the total points, then
y = 16x - 22

Therefore, z = x, and z is the total number of games.
