Blue cassettes hold 45 minutes of music. Green cassettes hold 55 minutes of music. If Niko has 16 cassettes containing 830 minut
es of music, how many are blue, and how many are green?
2 answers:
Form a pair of linear equations,
x = Blue cassettes
y = Green cassettes
x + y = 16 ==> Equation 1
45x + 55y = 830 ==> Equation 2
x = 16 - y ==> Equation 3
45(16 - y) + 55y = 830
720 - 45y + 55y = 830
10y = 830 - 720
10y = 110
y = 110 / 10
y = 11 Green cassettes
x = 16 - y
x = 16 - 11
x = 5 Blue cassettes
B + g = 16.....b = 16 - g
45b + 55g = 830
45(16 - g) + 55g = 830
720 - 45g + 55g = 830
-45g + 55g = 830 - 720
10g = 110
g = 110/10
g = 11 <=== there are 11 green cassettes
b + g = 16
b + 11 = 16
b = 16 - 11
b = 5 <=== there are 5 blue cassettes

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Blue car: 30.5 / 1.25 =24.4 miles per gallon
Red car: 25.6/0.80 =32 miles per gallon
You can easily see that the Red car travel farther on 1 gallon of gasoline.
