Answer: 90 + 4, third choice and 90 - -4, last choice
Her score is obviously higher when the mistake is fixed, adding the 4 points gives 94.
So 16=heads
18=tails
after you add some tails
18+x
ratio of heads to tails is 1:1.5
heads=16, didn't change
tails=18+x
so
1:1.5=16:18+x
fractionify
1/1.5=16/(18+x)
1/1.5=2/3
2/3=16/(18+x)
mutiply both sides by (3)(18+x)
2(18+x)=3(16)
36+2x=48
subtract 36 from both sides
2x=12
divide 2
x=6
6 tails added
total=heads+tails
heads=16
tails=18+6=24
total=16+24
total=40
6 tails added
40 total coins
<span>(a) 5(3m+2) = 15m + 10
(b) 6(g+h) = 6g + 6h
(c) 4d+8 = 4(d + 2)
(d) 21p+35q = 7(3p + 5q)
(e) 18x+9y = 9(2x + y)</span>
Let, the number be "x"
Now,
according to the question,
4x -8 = x -23....................This is your equation.
Now solving it,
4x - 8 = x - 23
4x - x = -23 + 8
3x = -15
x = -15 / 3
x = -5
Checking the answer,
4 (-5) - 8 = (-5) - 23
-20 - 8 = -5 - 23
-28 = -28......................................true
