Answer:
all work is shown and pictured
The probability is 4 out of 14
I think 1 is =
2 is =
3 is >
4 is =
5 is =
But I am really not good at math, so I hope I got them right for you!
-Twix
<span>Cost of maple syrup = $6.00 a Gallon
Cost of corn syrup = 0.80 cents a Gallon
Cost of the syrup mixture = $2.36 a Gallon
There is mixture of 50 Gallons
Lets maple syrup be x gallons, so corn syrup be 50-x gallons
Hence,
6*x + 0.80(50-x) = 2.36*50
6x + 40 - 0.8x = 118
5.2x = 78
=> x = 78/5.2 => x = 15
So Maple will be syrup be 15 gallons.
Corn syrup will be 35 gallons.</span>
Well, we know that the two consecutive numbers have to be negative, because if it was positive, the smaller number multiplied by two would be much greater. (unless 1 and 2). So, by guessing and checking, we will get -13 and -14 :)
