<u>Correct Question</u>
In the table shown, the sum of each row is shown to the right of the row and the sum of each column is shown below the column. What is the value of L?
Answer:
L=7
Step-by-step explanation:
From the first row: 2J+K=5
Therefore: K=5-2J
From the second column, 2K+J=7
Substitute K derived above into 2K+J=7
2K+J=7
2(5-2J)+J=7
10-4J+J=7
-3J=7-10
-3J=-3
J=1
Recall: K=5-2J
K=5-2(1)=3
K=3
From the third column, J+2L=15
1+2L=15
2L=15-1=14
L=7
Therefore, the value of L=7

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Mrs. Hong originally had 900 ml of milk
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
The complete question is in the attached image
Assume that the amount of milk Mrs. Hong originally had was x ml
<u>We are given that:</u>
1- She used of it to bake the waffles, <u>therefore</u>:
Amount used in baking waffles = ml
2- She used 300 ml to bake a pie
3- Amount left is half the original amount, <u>therefore</u>:
Amount left = ml
<u>We know that:</u>
Total amount = amount used in waffles + amount used in pie + amount left
<u>Substitute with the givens and solve for x:</u>
Total amount = amount used in waffles + amount used in pie + amount left
<u>This means that:</u>
She originally had 900 ml of milk
Hope this helps :)
