Walter and Brian each have a CD collection. The number of CDs in Walter's collection can be represented by x. The number of CDs in Brian's collection is 3 times the number in Walter's collection. The total number of CDs in both collections is 144. What is x, the number of CDs in Walter's collection?

36CDs

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of CDs in Walter's collection can be represented by x. The number of CDs in Brian's collection is 3 times the number in Walter's collection.

Hence, Brian's collection = 3x

The total number of CDs in both collections is 144.

We have the Equation:

x + 3x = 144

4x = 144

x = 144/4

x = 36

Therefore, the number of CDs in Walter's collection is 36 CDs

step-by-step explanation:

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4

    200 words per minute

felicia:

260 words per minute

200< 260 < 265

connie < felicia < stew
