An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The correct option is x+y=557 and Three-fifths(x)+five-sixths(y)=407.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Let the total number of pages in the shorter book be represented by x, and the total number of pages in the longer book be represented by y.

Given the total number of pages of the shorter book and the longer book is  557. Therefore, the equation can be written as,

x+y =557

Also, Scott reads Three-fifths of the shorter book and StartFraction 5 Over 6 EndFraction of the longer book, which is equal to 407 pages. Therefore,

(3/5)x + (5/6)y = 407

Hence, the correct option is x+y=557 and Three-fifths(x)+five-sixths(y)=407.

At Dave's diner, 2 sandwiches and 2 drinks cost $12. You can buy 5 drinks for the cost of one sandwich.
hram777 [196]
If you’re asking for the cost of the drink, the drink would be $1. This is because 2 sandwiches would cost $10 and that means 1 sandwich would make it $5. If 2 sandwiches cost $10, the remaining $2 in the $12 dollars would be the drinks. 2 drinks for $2 would make 1 drink for $1. So the cost of 5 drinks is $5 or $1 per drink.

If confused, don’t be shy to ask :)

A greedy hamster hoarded 2 piles of sunflower seeds. Yesterday the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4; but today the greedy h
poizon [28]

The weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4

<h3>What is the ratio?</h3>

It is described as the comparison of two quantities to determine how many times one obtains the other. The proportion can be expressed as a fraction or as a sign: between two integers.

We have:

A greedy hamster hoarded 2 piles of sunflower seeds. Yesterday the ratio of the seeds in these piles was 3:4

Let 3x and 4x are the seeds from the smaller and bigger pile.

= 4x + 2  (greedy hamster placed another 2 pounds of seeds in the bigger pile)

= 3x - 1/4 (ate 1/4 pound from the smaller pile)

4x + 2 = 5x

Because the quantities of seeds in those piles is in the ratio of 5:16

After solving:

x = 2

Smaller pile weight = 3x = 3(2) = 6

Bigger pile wieght = 4x = 4(2) = 8

Thus, the weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4
