Lin read for x minutes, and Elena read for more than that. Write an expression for the number of minutes Elena read. Only use decimals in your expression

In this exercise, we know some facts:

The problem tells us nothing about the number of minutes Elena read more than Lin. However, let's say Elena read one-third more than the number of minutes Lin read. Therefore:

For Lin:

For Elena:

i think the answer is .36

step-by-step explanation:

75

step-by-step explanation:

you do x-29=46 (the number of cantaloupes sold)

in order to find x, you have to find what minus 29 equals 46, meaning you'd have to add 29 to 46.

29+46=75

if you replace x with 75, the equation looks like:

75-29=46

x=75
