Answer:
Tootsie Rolls = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Milky Ways and Tootsie Rolls together were 15 more than the number of Reese's Cups.
There were 4 fewer Reese's Cups than Hershey Bars.
There were 12 Milky Ways and 14 Hershey Bars.
Solution
Milky Ways and Tootsie Rolls = Reese's Cups + 15
There were 4 fewer Reese's Cups than Hershey Bars.
Hershey Bars = 14
Then,
Reese's Cups = 14 - 4
= 10
Milky ways = 12
Hershey bars = 14
Reese's Cups = 10
Milky ways = 12
Milky Ways + Tootsie Rolls = Reese's Cups + 15
12 + Tootsie Rolls = 10 + 15
12 + Tootsie Rolls = 25
Subtract 12 from both sides
Tootsie Rolls = 25 - 12
= 13
Tootsie Rolls = 13
Answer:
3x+4 Ralph is currently 12 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the equation by reading the scenario given. When you read it, it says that Ralph is 3 times as old as Sara and since her current age is going to be used to represent x you will first get 3x. That automatically eliminates the second and third choice given. It then says the equation is for Ralph's age in four years which means to add four to the equation. This gives you 3x+4 as your equation.
When something is tripled and then in a few years it is doubled, it is easiest to first try the number that is being added. So in this case the number is four. When you multiply 4 by 3 you get 12. If Sara is 4 she'll turn eight in four years and if Ralph is 12 he'll turn 16 in four years. 16 divided by 2 is 8 which shows you that Ralph is currently 12
The table would be y = 6x
Divide the Y values by the X values and they all equal 6, so you multiply the X value by 6 to get y.
Look at the dots on the graph ( 1,5) (2,10) (3,15) (4,20)
Divide the Y value by the X and they all equal 5, soy = 5x
This is a classic math problem, and it is not solved in a normal way.
<span>1+4=5
2+5=12
3+6=21
8+11=?
There is a pattern that can be spotted. 2+5 does not equal twelve, however 2*(2+5) does equal 12. Below is how to solve the rest of the equations:
</span>1+4=5 -> 1*(4+1)=5
2+5=12 -> 2*(5+1)=12
3+6=21 -> <span>3*(6+1)=21 </span>
8+11=? -> <span>8*(11+1)=96
</span>
This is one way to answer the problem, HOWEVER there is another way to answer the problem that gives the SAME answer, but many people mistakenly believes it gives a different answer. If anyone tries to post the other way of doing this problem, but tells you the answer is 40, please comment on this post or message me and let me know. I will explain why the answer is actually 96 either way.
