A girl is 12 years old and her brother is twice her age. When the girl is 50 years old, how
old will her brother be? - ANS - 62
Explanation the brother is 12 years older than the girl
When the girl is 50, her brother will still be 12 years older than her 50 +12=62
A STORAGE CONTAINER HOLDING 1600 CUBIC FEET OF RICE IS 8 FEET DEEP X
10 FEET WIDE. HOW LONG IN FEET IS THE STORAGE CONTAINER? - ANS - 20
THE VOLUME 1600 CUBIC FEET
THE DEPTH (REFERRED TO THE HEIGHT) 8 FEET
THE WIDTH 10 FEET
VOLUME + (LENGTH) X (WIDTH) X (HEIGHT)
UNKNOWN VALUE IS HEIGHT (h)
1600 = (l)(10)(8)
1600 = 80l
divide both sides by 80 in order to isolate l
20=l
A train travels 45 feet in 1/10 of a second. How far will it travel in 3.5 seconds? - ANS -
1575
STEP 1 HOW FAR DOES THE TRAIN GO IN 1 WHOLE SECOND
IF THE TRAIN TRAVELS 45 FEET IN 1/10 SECONDS, THEN IT MUST TRAVEL 10
TIMES AS FAR IN 1 SECOND.
45 X 10 =450
EXTRAPOLATE, IF IT GOES 450 FEET IN 1 SECOND, THEN 3.5 SECONDS
450 X 3.5 = 1575
ACME IS THE OPPOSITE OF - ANS - BOTTOM ACME: THE POINT AT WHICH
