For this case we have that the complete question is:

There were 20 drinks in a cooler. Joey drank 15% of the drinks. Sandra drank 1/5 of the drinks. Hannah drank 1/4 of the drinks. Tammy drank 30% of the drinks. How many drinks are left in the cooler? a 0 b 2 c 5 d 9

We propose a rule of three:

20 ---------> 100%

x ------------> 15%

Where the variable "x" represents the amount of drinks equivalent to 15%.

x = \frac {15 * 20} {100}\\x = 3

So, Joey drank 3 drinks.

On the other hand, we have that Sandra drank \frac {1} {5}of the drinks:

20 * \frac {1} {5} = \frac {20} {5} = 4

Thus, Sandra drank 4 drinks.

In addition, Hannah drank\frac {1} {4} of the drinks:

20 * \frac {1} {4} = 5

So Hannah drank 5 drinks.

Finally, Tammy drank 30% of the drinks:

20 ---------> 100%

y ------------> 30%

Where the variable "y" represents the amount of drinks equivalent to 30%.

y = \frac {30 * 20} {100}\\y = 6

So Tammy drank 6 drinks.

Adding up we have:

3 + 4 + 5 + 6 = 18

So: 20-18=2

Thus, 2 drinks remain in the refrigerator.

To prepare for a bake-off, Chad used 520 grams of flour each day for 2 weeks. How many kilograms did Chad use in those 2 weeks?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

7.280 k

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that  1 g = 0.001 k

If he uses 520 grams of flour each day for 2 weeks, since there are 7 days in a week, the total weight of flour used in two weeks

= 520 g * 2 * 7

= 7280 g

In kilograms

Since

1 g = 0.001 k

7280 g = 7280/1 * 0.001 k

= 7.280 k

Solving system by substitution x=3y+11, 2x-3y=16
grin007 [14]
Input 3y+11 for x

2(3y+11)-3y=16
6y+22-3y=16
3y= -6
Divide by 3 to isolate y
y=-2

Now for x....

x=3(-2)+11
=-6+11
=5
x=5
