Answer:
Number of cookies sold by the Yummy Company = 32.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of cookies sold by the yummy company be x.
Then the number of pies sold by The Chipper Bakery is 3/4 x.
When they have 16, more we have:
Number sold by the Yummy company is x + 16 and the number sold by the Bakery is 5/6 (x + 16)
So x + 3/4x + 2(16) = x + 16 + 5/6(x + 16)
= 7/4 x + 32 = 11/6 x + 16 + 80/6
7/4 x - 11/6x = 16 + 80/6 - 32
-1/12 x = -2 2/3
x = -8/3 * -12
x = 32.
Answer:
x=3, y=0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
8x+5y=28
4x+5y=16
Subtract the second simultaneous equation from the first.
You are left with: 4x=12
12/4=3
x=3
Substitute this back into one of the equations.
8(3)+5y=28
8*3=24
28-24=4
4=5y
4/5=0.8
y=0.8
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
0.25 divided by 1.075 is 0.2325..
But I think 1.075 divided by 0.25 sounds more right, in case that is the problem then the answer is 4.3
