I'm guess it 5 because you need to find you greatest common factors
Answer:
He bought 6 chairs and 10 tables.
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y = 16
he spent = $1800
1 chair = $50
y chairs = $50y
1 table = $150
x chairs = $150x
so, 150x+50y = 1800
we got two equations :
x+ y = 16
150x+50y = 1800
Using. substitution method,
x+y = 16
so, x = 16-y
Now
150x+50y =1800
or, 150(16-y) + 50y = 1800
or, 2400-150y+50y = 1800
or, 2400-1800 = 150y-50y
or, 600=100y
so, y = 6
now,
x+y = 16
or, x + 6 = 16
so, x = 10
Remember, we can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
and distributive proeprty, reversed
ab+ac=a(b+c)
xm=x+z
minus x from both sides
xm-x=z
xm-1x
undistribute x
x(m-1)=z
divide both sides by (m-1)
Both ways to write it our
The variable is the number of blueberries, the operation is division, and the constant is 6. Write the division expression as the fraction, b/6 . To evaluate, substitute 210 in for the variable, b, and simplify. 210 divided by 6 is 35. So each bowl has 35 blueberries.
