Answer:
m = 2
n = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so to solve this, you want to get it so there is only one variable and then solve that equation. To do this, you can start by doing:
3m + n = 10
multiply both sides by 2
6m + 2n = 20
now, in both of your equations you have 2n so you can add the two equations:
6m + 2n = 20
+ 5m - 2n = 2
11m = 22
divide both sides by 11
m = 2.
Now, plug this value into the original equation, 3m + n = 10:
3 * 2 + n = 10
6 + n = 10
subtract 6 from both sides
n = 4
To determine the number of those who joined the basketball camp this year, we just have to multiply the number of those who joined last year by the decimal equivalent of the percentage given. That is,
x = 88(1.25)
x = 110
Therefore, there are a total of 110 players for this years basketball camp.
