3. Over the weekend, Jada made three times as much money babysitting than Han did mowing lawns. Jada made an additional $27 selling lemonade. From babysitting and selling lemonade, she has a total of $96. If the equation 3x + 27 = 96 represents this situation, what does the variable x represent?​

X is the amount Han made mowing lawns

because it said that she earned 3xs the amount he did. So you would take what he made times three plus the extra 27 she made from selling lemonade

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36
