There are 63 students in a speech contest. yesterday 1/3 gave a speech and today 2/3 of the remaining students gave their speech. how many students still haven't given their speeches

Hey!

Solution:

Find 1/3 of 63.

63 / 3 = 21

21 students gave a speech today.

63 - 21 = 42

Find 2/3 of 42.

42 / 3 = 14

14 x 2 = 28

28 of the remaining students gave their speeches.

42 - 28 = 14

14 students haven't given their speeches!

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!

let soccer = x and golf = y

part a

1st equation: x + y = 125

2nd equation: x = y +45

part b

replace x in the 1st equation with the 2nd one:

y + 45 + y = 125

simplify:

2y + 45 = 125

subtract 45 from each side:

2y = 80

divide both sides by 2:

y = 80/2

y = 40

she plays golf for 40 minutes.

part c

no because she plays soccer for 45 minutes longer than golf 40 +45 =   85 minutes, not 80 minutes.
