Answer: 12 cupcakes have vanilla icing.

Step-by-step explanation:

 We know that Joakim is icing a total number of 30 cupcakes.

According to the exercise, Joakim spreads mint icing on \frac{1}{5} of the cupcakes.

Let be "m" the number of cupcakes that have mint icing. Then

m=(30)(\frac{1}{5})=6

He spreads chocolate on \frac{1}{2} of the remaining. The remaining is:

30\ cupcakes-6\ cupcakes=24\ cupcakes

Let be "c" the number of cupcakes that have chocolate. Then

c=(24)(\frac{1}{2})=12

Let be "v" the number of cupcakes that have vanilla icing.

Since the rest will get vanilla icing, we know that:

v=12

Answer:

9 cupcakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Joakim is icing 30 cupcakes. He spreads mint icing on 1/5 of the cupcakes.  

Let us find the number of cupcakes with mint icing.

\text{Cupcakes with mint icing}=30\times \frac{1}{5}

\text{Cupcakes with mint icing}=6

We have been given that 1/2 of the remaining cupcakes have chocolate icing.

\text{Cupcakes with chocolate icing}=\frac{30}{2}

\text{Cupcakes with chocolate icing}=15

We have been given that remaining cakes have vanilla icing.

\text{Cupcakes with vanilla icing}=30-(6+15)

\text{Cupcakes with vanilla icing}=30-21

\text{Cupcakes with vanilla icing}=9

Therefore, 9 cupcakes will have vanilla icing.

From 7x^2+5xy-3y^2 subtract the sum of 2x^2+3xy-5y^2 and x^2-7xy-4y^2
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

  4x^2 +9xy +6y^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms. I find it useful to factor out the variable part of the expression so I can see what coefficients are being combined.

  7x^2+5xy-3y^2 - (2x^2+3xy-5y^2 + x^2-7xy-4y^2)

  = (7 -2 -1)x^2 +(5 -3+7)xy +(-3 +5 +4)y^2

  = 4x^2 +9xy +6y^2

I really need help with this problem steps

Solve for y by setting one equation =to X after that you can substitute the equation into the other one let's set the first one in X= FORM
X-7y=10
-2x+14y=-20

Add 7y to both sides of the first equation to let x stand alone
X=7y+10
Now you can substitute x on the second equation
-2 (7y+10)+14y=-20
Distribute
-14y-20+14y=-20
Add and simplify
Us cancel out =0
-20=-20
0=0
They are the same equations you can also divide the second equation by -2 which would make it look like this
X-7y=10
-2 (x-7y=10)

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

3/8 cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 tablespoons of sugar = 1/16 * 2 = 1/8 cup of sugar.

1/2 cup = 4/8 cups.

So the extra sugar required = 4/8 - 1/8

= 3/8 cups.
