Javier rode his bike for a total of 40 minutes.

Let x be the minutes Javier ride after lunch

Let y be the minutes Javier ride before  lunch

The number of minutes he rode after lunch is 4 times the number of minutes he rode before lunch

x = 4 y

The number of minutes he rode after lunch + number of minutes he rode before lunch = 40

x + y = 40

We know x= 4y

4y + y = 40

5y = 40

y = 8

x= 4y so x= 4(8) = 32

Javier ride  32 minutes after lunch

answer   download the app called socratic on your phoner:

step-by-step explanation:

she will sew have sewn five dresses   and be 1/3 done with the sixth one in an hour.

step-by-step explanation:

3/4 of an hour=45 mins

lucy makes 1 dress per 11.25 minutes

45 mins+11.25 mins=56.25 mins

60 mins- 56.25 mins=3.75 mins

3.75 mins is 1/3 of of 11.25 mins

therefore she the other 1/3 would be part of the hour and she will have sewn 5 dresses and begun the sixth.
