Layla had the higher score by 20 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Points for correct answer = 10 points

Points for incorrect answer = 20 points

Loss means subtraction;

Therefore,

Total points of Ji = Correct answers*10 - Incorrect answers*20

Total points of Ji = 7*10 - 3*20

Total points of Ji = 70 - 60

Total points of Ji = 10 points

Total points of Layla = Correct answers*10 - Incorrect answers*20

Total points of Layla = 5*10 - 1*20

Total points of Layla = 50 - 20

Total points of Layla = 30 points

Difference = Points of Layla - Points of Ji

Difference = 30 - 10 = 20 points

Layla had the higher score by 20 points.

BARSIC [14]

A reasonable number between 18 and 23 is 20. 69 minutes is 3 times 23 minutes, so we multiply the 20 by 3, getting an estimate of 60 cars.

Juan bought 4 pounds of chocolate
Andru [333]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations.  The 2 equations are:

4c + 2p = 16

2c + 3p = 12

Let's get rid of the p's first.  Do this by multiplying the first equation by -3 and the second equation by 2 to get a new system that looks like this:

-12x - 6p = -48

 4c + 6p =  24

Now add to get

-8c = -24 and

c = 3

That means that chocolate is $3 per pound.  Now sub that back in to either one of the original equations to get the price for peanuts:

4(3) + 2p = 16 and

12 + 2p = 16 and

2p = 4 so

p = 2

The price for peanuts is $2 per pound.
