Answer:106
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of white marbles be w
Let number of red marbles be r
w+r = 126---------1
w = 6 +5r-----------2
Put eqn 2 in eqn 1
6+ 5r + r = 126
6 + 6r = 126
6r = 120
r = 20
w = 6 +5r =6+100
= 106
Answer:
???
Step-by-step explanation:
What is the question?
Odd integers are represented by 2n+1 where n is a whole number
consecutive odd are 2 apart so
they are 2n+1 and 2n+1+2
the sum of them is at least 16
2n+1+2n+1+2<u>></u>16
4n+4<u>></u>16
minus 4
4n<u>></u>12
divide 4
n<u>></u>3
sub back
2n+1 and 2n+3
2(3)+1 and 2(3)+3
6+1 and 6+3
7 and 9
they have to be at least 7 and 9

<h3>16 lollipops and 9 bags of chips are sold</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "x" be the number of lollipops sold
Let "y" be the number of bags of chips sold
Cost of 1 lollipop = $ 1.50
Cost of 1 bag of chip = $ 1.75
<em><u>Yesterday Lucy made $39.75 from selling a total of 25 lollipops and bags of chips</u></em>
Therefore,
x + y = 25
y = 25 - x -------- eqn 1
<em><u>Yesterday Lucy made $39.75</u></em>
Therefore,
number of lollipops sold x Cost of 1 lollipop + number of bags of chips sold x Cost of 1 bag of chip = 39.75

1.5x + 1.75y = 39.75 -------- eqn 2
<em><u>Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2</u></em>
1.5x + 1.75(25 - x) = 39.75
1.5x + 43.75 - 1.75x = 39.75
0.25x = 4
<h3>x = 16</h3>
<em><u>Substitute x = 16 in eqn 1</u></em>
y = 25 - 16
<h3>y = 9</h3>
Thus 16 lollipops and 9 bags of chips are sold
