Answer:
Each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the bags are identical, Let them Number of candies in each bag sue had be x. Thus, she had 5x candies. Since she lost 25 pieces, then she now has;
5x - 25 candies left.
We are told that Ted had 4 bags with the same number of candies like Sue had. Thus, he has 4x candies.
He mysteriously found 10 additional pieces. Total Ted now has is;. 4x + 10
Finally, we are told that Sue and Ted now have an equal number of candies.
Thus;
5x - 25 = 4x + 10
Rearranging, we have;
5x - 4x = 25 + 10
x = 35
Thus, each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy
Answer:
40 daps
Step-by-step explanation:
lets say daps is d, yaps are y and baps are b
4d = 7y, 5y=3b
First convert to y
4/7d = y
Now convert that to b
5(4d/7) = 3b
20d / 7 = 3b
20d / 21 = b
Plug it in:
42(20d/21)
40d
aka 40 daps
Answer:
-17x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Setup Fee= $5,500Per CD Charge= $1.00Desired Cost Per CD= $3.50
x= number of CDs
Desired Cost Per CD= Cost per CD + Setup Fee
($3.50 * x)= ($1.00 * x) + $5,500multiply inside parentheses
$3.50x= $1.00x + $5,500subtract $1.00x from both sides
$2.50x= $5,500divide both sides by $2.50
x= 2,200 CDs
ANSWER: x= 2,200 CDs
Hope this helps! :)
