Answer :
3. 140= 3x +x
140= 4x
140/4 = 4x/4
35=x
3x= 35 * 3
3x= 105
The length is 105 ft
4. Number of dimes= d and number of quarters=q
d+q= 27
10d + 25q= 405
d= 27-q
10(27 -q) +25 q= 405
270 -10q + 25q= 405
270 + 15q= 405
15q= 135
q=9
d + q= 27
d +9=27
d=18
She has 18 dimes
5. 6 gal with a 50-50 split means 3 gallons each. The 60-40 has 3 gallons of lime. If 3 gal is 60%, the volume is 5 gal. We need to add 1 gallon

3- 105 ft
4- 21 dimes
5- 1.5 gallons
I just took the test.
Hope this helps someone in the future.
