Answer:
These are confusing Beth , b/c you have to remember that they will add to 100%
Step-by-step explanation:
so
green = 3* yellow
100% = green + yellow + 35% + 25%
100% = 3* yellow + yellow +60%
40% = 4* yellow
10% = yellow
30% = green
there are 14 purples in the bag , which is 35% of total
14/.35 = 40
there are a total of 40 pins
so
4 are yellow (10% of 40 or 40* 0.1)
12 are green (30% of 40 or 40*0.3)
14 are purple (35% of 40 or 40*0.35)
10 are grey (25% of 40 or 40*0.25 )

Because the arrow is pointing to the left, the answer to the solution set needs to be less than the the number the dot is on.
A solid dot on a number means that that number is included in the solution set.
In the picture the solid dot is on 4.5, so the solution set needs to be equal to or less than 4.5.
The answer is:
{x | x ≤ 4.5}
Answer:
x = -3
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
5(x + 4) = -2(-4 - x) + 3
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute: 5x + 20 = 8 + 2x + 3
- Combine like terms: 5x + 20 = 2x + 11
- Subtract 2x on both sides: 3x + 20 = 11
- Subtract 20 on both sides: 3x = -9
- Divide 3 on both sides: x = -3
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 5(-3 + 4) = -2(-4 - -3) + 3
- Simplify: 5(-3 + 4) = -2(-4 + 3) + 3
- Add: 5(1) = -2(-1) + 3
- Multiply: 5 = 2 + 3
- Add: 5 = 5
Here we see that 5 does indeed equal 5. ∴ x = -3 is a solution of the equation.
And we have our final answer!
Answer:
even number can be divided by two without areminder
Cost of each bags of flour = $2.50
Cost of each bags of butter = $3.75
Solution:
Let f be the bags of flour and b be the pounds of butter.
Cost of 20 bags of flour 16 pound of butter = 110
⇒ 20f + 16b = 110 -------------------- (1)
Cost of 30 bags of flour 12 pound of butter = 120
⇒ 30f + 12b = 120 -------------------- (2)
Equation (1) and (2) are the system of equations.
(2) ⇒ 30f + 12b = 120
Subtract 30f from both sides.
⇒ 12b = 120 – 30f
Divide by 12 on both sides.
-------------------- (3)
Substitute (3) in (1).
Subtract 160 from both sides.
Divide by –20, we get
f = 2.50
Substitute f = 2.5 in equation (3), we get
b = 3.75
Cost of each bags of flour = $2.50
Cost of each bags of butter = $3.75
