Question

PLEASE ANSWER WITH A REAL ANSWER THIS IS IMPORTANT

Ada Lovelace had 210 minutes to read, play soccer, and code her computer.


She spent t minutes reading

She spent 2(t +18) minutes playing soccer

She spent 30 minutes coding.


How many minutes did Ada spend reading

Answer 1

She spent 48 minutes reading

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the number of minutes spent reading

By adding all the breakdown of individual tasks, we get the total

Thus, mathematically;

30 + 2(t + 18) + t = 210

30 + 2t + 36 + t = 210

3t = 210-30-36

3t = 144

t = 144/3

t = 48

From the question, she spent t minutes reading which means she spent 48 minutes reading
