Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing number be x.

Given that,

→ Sum of four and twice a number is 56.

Let's form a equation,

→ 4 + 2x = 56

The required value of x will be,

→ 4 + 2x = 56

→ 2x = 56 - 4

→ 2x = 52

→ x = 52/2

→ [ x = 26 ]

Hence, the number is 26.

Assign two variables for each problem, and write the equations. Do not solve.

Call the amount of pineapple "P', and the amount of gingerale "G".

We know that a mix of pineapple and gingerale makes 200 cups. So:
$P+G=200$

We also know that double the pineapple (i.e. 2P) and triple the gingerale (i.e. 3G) makes 420 cups. So:
$2P+3G=420$

We can now solve by substitution:
$2P+3(200-P)=420$
$2P+600-3P=420$
$-P=-180$
$P=180$

$180+G=200$
$G=20$

For 420 cups we need 2P=360 cups of pineapple and 3G=60 cups of gingerale]

Emily and Sarah had a total of $80. after Sarah spent 1/3 of her money and Emily spent $17, Emily had twice as much money as Sar

Phoenix [80]

SO in total, Emily and Sarah had a total of 80 dollars in which Emily had twice as much as Sarah.
Let’s solve to find out how much their Money is.
=> Since the ratio of the given data is 2:1, 2 + 1 =3, so let’s divide 80 by 3
=> 80 / 3 = 26.667 ,
=> Emily has twice as this.
=> 26.667 * 2 = 53.33
=> Sarah has 26.67
Now, Sarah spent 1/3 of her money
=> 26.67 / 3 = 8.89 – her remaining money
Emily spent 17 dollars of her money
=> 53.33 – 17 = 36.33
