So 45 more chocolate stars were sold compared to chewy squares, which makes it a ratio of 3:8, hence we can assume that (45÷5=9) is the amount sold for each ratio.
If you multiply 9 by (3+8=11), you will get 99.
Answer:
One solution (-1,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since these two linear equations have different slopes, different y-intercepts, and are indeed linear, these equations will only have one crossing when graphed, and hence one solution.
To find that solution, we can simply set the equations equal to each other.
y = -x + 1
y = 2x + 4
-x + 1 = 2x + 4
-3 = 3x
-1 = x
Now plug that value back into one of the equations:
y = -x + 1
y = -(-1) + 1
y = 2
So now you know the crossing for these two equations occurs at (-1,2).
Cheers.
100 times, because 5 times 100 equals 500
36 bowls - since with one gallon he can eat 12 bowls (as demonstrated by 1/12), you multiply 12 by 3 to get 36 bowls.
