Answer:

Ms.Johnson folded <u>120 cards</u> and Ms.Siple folded <u>180 cards</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ms.Johnson and Ms.Siple were folding report cards to send home to parents. The ratio of number of report cards Ms.Johnson folded to the number of report cards to Ms.Siple folded is 2:3. At the end if the day, Ms.Johnson and Ms.Siple folded a total of 300 report cards.

Now, to get the number of cards each person fold.

As, the ratio is given.

Ms.Johnson folded to the number of report cards to Ms.Siple folded is 2:3.

So, let the number of cards Ms.Johnson folded be 2x.

And, let the number of cards Ms.Siple folded be 3x.

Total number of cards folded by both of them = 300.

According to question:

2x+3x=300\\\5x=300\\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\ we\ get:\\x=60.

Now, to get the number of cards folded by Ms.Johnson and Ms.Siple we substitute the value of x:

Ms.Johnson folded:

2x=2\times60=120.

Ms.Siple folded:

3x=3\times 60=180.

Therefore, Ms.Johnson folded 120 cards and Ms.Siple folded 180 cards.

vladimir1956 [14]

Hi there,

9. Which of the following is the value of x in the solution to the

system of equations given below?

8 + 2x = 5y  (1)

4x - y = 2  (2)

▪ (1)

y = ( 8 + 2x ) ÷ 5

▪ (2)

4x - [( 8 + 2x ) ÷ 5] = 2

( 20x - 8 - 2x ) ÷ 5 = 2

20x - 8 - 2x = 2 × 5

20x - 2x = ( 2 × 5 ) + 8

18x = 10 + 8

18x = 18

x = 18 ÷ 18

x = 1

The answer is : A. 1
