Answer:

total = 96 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

sweets shared in the ratio 4 : 5 : 7 = 4x : 5x : 7x ( x is a multiplier )

Seth got 18 more sweets than Frank , that is

7x = 4x + 18 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

3x = 18 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 6

Then

total = 4x + 5x + 7x = 16x = 16 × 6 = 96 sweets

What is the solution of the system of equations? {3x−1/2y=−7/2 x+2y=1

k0ka [10]

3x -1/2y = -7/2
x = -2y + 1

3 (-2y + 1) -1/2y = -7/2
-6y +3 -1/2y = -7/2
-13/2y = -13/2
y = 1

x = -2(1) + 1
x = -1

Joan received $17 and 94 cents ($17.94)

$14.20 + $7.86= $22.06 (her total)

$20+$20= $40 (how much she paid with)

$40- $22.06= $17.94
