Which strategy would not correctly solve this story problem? it took dennis twice as long to walk to the park as it did to walk to the store. he walked to the store in 15 minutes. he spent 5 more minutes walking to the library than to the store. how much time did dennis spend walking?

40 minutes

step-by-step explanation:

add the time and multiply by 2

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
