For the nuts Adam paid 3 * $12 = $
<<3*12=36>>36. And for dried fruits Adam paid 2.5 * $8 = $<<2.5*8=20>>20. So in total for his purchases Adam paid $36 + $20 = $<<36+20=56>>56. #### 56 Coby went on a road trip. He is traveling from Washington to Nevada but he needs to stop in Idaho which is 640 miles away from Washington and 550 miles away from Nevada to pick up some friends. If Coby is traveling at a speed of 80 miles per hour going to Idaho and at a speed of 50 miles per hour from Idaho to Nevada, how many hours did it take for him to arrive at the destination? The estimated time of arrival from Washington to Idaho is 640/80= <<640/80=8>>8 hours. So, the estimated time of arrival from Idaho to Nevada is 550/50=<<550/50=11>>11 hours. Therefore, It took him 11+8= <<11+8=19>>19 hours to arrive at the destination. #### 19 The Indigo Restaurant receives 18 online customer reviews.

How many are in the Period 2 gym class? Let x be the number of students in the Period 8 gym class. 2x-5=11 2x=16 x=<<8=8>>8 #### 8 In the second hour of a storm it rains 7 inches more than twice the amount it rained the first hour. The total amount of rain in the first two hours is 22 inches. How much did it rain in the first hour? Let x be the amount of rain in the first hour It rained 2x+7 inches in the second hour. x+2x+7=22 3x+7=22 3x=15 x=<<5=5>>5 inches #### 5 Mark had 10 pieces of fruit to eat in school this week. On Friday, he decided to keep 2 pieces of fruit for next week. He then brings the remaining 3 pieces of fruit to school for the day. How many pieces of fruit did Mark eat in the first four days of the week? Only 10 – 2 = <<10-2=8>>8 pieces of fruit were eaten this week. Subtracting Friday’s snacks shows Mark ate 8 – 3 = <<8-3=5>>5 pieces of fruit in the first four days of the week. #### 5 Darcy washes and drys 20 shirts and 8 pairs of shorts. If he folds 12 of the shirts and 5 of the shorts, how many more remaining pieces of clothing does Darcy have to fold? Darcy still has to fold 20 - 12 = <<20-12=8>>8 shirts Darcy still has to fold 8 - 5 = <<8-5=3>>3 shorts Darcy has to fold a total of 8 + 3 = <<8+3=11>>11 pieces of clothing #### 11 Delaney has to catch a bus that leaves at 8:00. a.m to school every day. He always takes 30 minutes to reach the pick-up point from his home. One day he woke up late and left his home at 7:50. How much time did he miss the bus by when he reached the pick-up point? If he left his home at 7:50 a.m. and the distance to the pick-up point is 30 minutes away, he arrived at the pick-up point at 7:50 + 30 minutes = 8:20 a.m. If the bus leaves at 8:00 a.m. every day, then Delaney was 8:20 a.m. - 8:00 a.m. = <<820-800=20>>20 minutes late when the bus had already left. #### 20 Emily bought a shirt and a coat for $600. What does the shirt cost if it is one-third the price of the coat? Let X be the price of the shirt. The price of the coat is X*3. The total amount is X + X*3 = $600. Combining like terms, we get X*4 = $600. Dividing both sides by 4, we get X = $600 / 4 = $<<600/4=150>>150. #### 150 Benjamin collects 6 dozen eggs a day.
