So let’s make the smaller number x and the larger one y....
Set up your equation by following the words signaling mathematical operations from the question.
y = 8 + 4x
y + 4x = 40
Now let’s bring all variables to one side and solve the system if equations with elimination...
y - 4x = 8
y + 4x = 40
Add the equations:
2y = 48
y = 24
Plug the y-value into one of the original equations:
24 = 8 + 4x
16 = 4x
4x = 16
x = 4
And there you have it! The smaller number [x] is 4 and the larger number [y] is 24.
For this case we have the following fractions:

So we have to:

This is equivalent to:

Answer:

The answer is Option A
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x - represents 1 point shots
(54 - x) - represents 2 point shots
x + 2(54 - x) = 89
x + 108 - 2x = 89
-x + 108 = 89
x = 19 (1 point shots)
54-x = 35 ( 2 point shots)
Test:
19 + 35 = 54 (total shots)
19 x 1 = 19
35 x 2 = 70
70 + 19 = 89 points
30(x)<=145 and yes she would be able to make 4 bracelets because 30 x 4 = 120 and that is less than 145
Not quite understand the question. We assume that the issue of ratios of numbers of 800 and 8000.
Then 800 is one-tenth of the 8,000 800 other words is 10% of 8000.
Conversely, 8000 it ten times at 800 and 1000% of 800.
