Answer:

<u>60 green candies</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the proportion :

  • <u>Red : Green = 5 : 3</u>

<u />

Let's make a linear equation where candies is denoted by x.

  • 5x + 3x = 160
  • 8x = 160
  • x = 20

<u>Number of green</u>

  • 3x
  • 3(20)
  • <u>60 green candies</u>

Solve 10(1 + 3b) = −20, justifying each step with an algebraic property.
Delicious77 [7]
The correct answer is B = -1

10(1 + 3B) = -20

10 + 30B = -20

-20 - 10 = -30

30B = -30

B = -1


Hope this helps :)
