Four friends checked out a total of 104 books. Newt took out half as many as Jenna. Sarita checked out 5 more books then sheerab, who borrowed twice as many as jenna. How many books did each person check out?

Newt: 9

Jenna: 18

Sheerab: 36

Sarita: 41

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to have x equal Newt because he borrowed the least. So then Jenna is 2x, Sheerab is 4x, and Sarita is 4x + 5. So now we add everything together and we have x + 2x + 4x + 4x + 5 = 104. That equals 11x + 5 = 104. We subtract 5 from each side, and that equals 11x = 99. Divide each side by 11 and x equals 9. So now we add everyone up and the answer is up there. I hope this helps and please mark me brainliest!

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
