Translating that problem into an equation with x as a variable we get 3x + x +10 = 22. Combine like terms to get 4x + 10 = 22. Subtract 10 on both sides to get 4x = 12. Divide by 4 on both sides to get x = 3.
Now to plug in. The first number was represented by 3x. So substituting 3 for the x we get 3(3) = 9. And again for the second number represented by x+10, 3+10 = 13.
Your numbers are 9 and 13. To check just add them together. 13 + 9 is 22, I'll save ya the effort.
Could it be like 1/8 of 100?
Answer: 8.3%
Step-by-step explanation: we use the formula 1/12x100 to give us 8.3 % and then for chocolate we do the same to get the same percentage 8.3%. so the probability that haley chooses a cherry gumball and then a chocolate gumball is 8.3%.
