Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

a) Let y represent the amount of time kiran slept, hence:

y = x - (1/10)x = x - 0.1x

y = 0.9x

b) Let y represent the amount of time Mia practice, hence:

y = x - (2/5)x = x - 0.4x

y = 0.6x

c) Let y represent the amount of drink kiran drank, hence:

y = x + (4/3)x = 7x / 3

y = 7x/3

d) Let y represent the money Mai spent, hence:

y = x - (1/4)x = x - 0.25x

y = 0.75x

e) Let y represent the amount of almond kiran ate, hence:

y = x + 1.5x = 2.5x

f) Let y represent the recycling Mai collected, hence:

y = x - (3/10)x = x - 0.3x

y = 0.7x

g) Let y represent the amount of km kiran walked, hence:

y = x + (3/8)x

y = (11/8)x

h) Let y represent the amount of puzzles mai completed, hence:

y = x + (3/5)x = x + 0.6x

y = 1.6x
