Tom has three times as many pencils as pens but has a total of de 100 writing utensils. how many pencils and pens does toms have?

Tim has 75 pencils and 25 pens

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this create a system of equations. To do so, first create an equation for the total number of utensils that he has. Let x equal the number of pencils and y equal the number of pens.

x+ y = 100

Now make one for the comparison of the two and solve for the constant.

x = 3y

x - 3y = 0

Now to solve the system, multiply the second equation by -1 and add them together.

x + y = 100

-x + 3y = 100

4y = 100

y = 25

Now that we have the number of pens, find the number of pencils using an equation.

x + y = 100

x + 25 = 100

x = 75

54 kilometers per hour

step-by-step explanation:

according to rules:

1 km = 1000 meter

which means that 1 meter = 1/1000 km

1 hour = 3600 second [ as 1 hour = 60 min = 60 *60 seconds ]

which means that 1 second = 1/3600 hour

therefore, 1 kilometer/hour =

thus to convert 15 meter per second to kilometer per hour, we multiply 15 to 3.6 kilometer/hour.

15 meter/second=   which is the required answer.
