Let x = the number of green apples, let 4x = the number of red apples
4x + x = 50 Set up the quation
5x = 50 Combine like terms
---- ---- Divide by 5 on both sides to get x alone
5 5
x = 10 green apples
4x = 4(10) = 40 red apples
40 - 10 = 30. Suzanne bought 30 more red apples than green apples.
Answer:
52-13b
Step-by-step explanation:
(6+7)(4-b)=13(4-b)
=52-13b
There’s no picture. Do it again and add the picture. Then we can see the scale
Use substitution when either and x or y is given, for instance: x = 2y + 3 or y = 8x - 9.
Use elimination when a number from both equations can cancel each other out, for example:
2x + 3y = 19
-2x + 7y = 12
Hope this helps!
