Write as an equation: Alice, Barbara, and Carol are sisters. Alice is 3 years younger than Barbara, and Barbara is 5 years younger than Carol. Together the sisters are 68 years old. How old is Barbara? (Let b = Barbara)

a+b+c=68

b-3=a

c-5=b

now just solve the system of equations, substitue so that there are only b's in the equation:

a+b+c=68

(b-3) + b + (b+5) = 68

3b=66

b=22

Therefore Barbara is 22

d) 30 units^2

area of rectangle = l × b

we know,

length = 10 unit

breadth = 3 unit

applying the formula,

= l × b

= 10 × 3

= 30 unit^2

pls mark as brainliest

a.) list the factors of 40.

1/2/4/5/8/10/20/40

b.) list the factors of 40 that represent the number of cans that could be on each shelf.

5

c.) how many different arrangements of cans are possible?

just one because if you put more on one shelf you will go way over 40 and the cabinet will probably break.

d.) what are the possible arrangements of the cans?

put 5 cans on each self to reach 40 cans in total.

e.) which arrangement uses all the shelves?

5 because you can put 5 cans on each shelf, and since there are 8 shelfs you are equally going to get 40 cans.
