A. Let x = cheese and
y = chocolate
2x + y = 25
x + y = 20

B. Subtract the second equation from the first.
2x + y = 25
-(x + y = 20)
-—————
x = 5

Plug 5 back in to the second equation and solve for y.
x + y = 20
5 + y = 20
Subtract 5 from both sides.
y = 15
5 cheese and 15 chocolate

Used elimination method because coefficients on the y values were both 1 so it was easy to subtract the equations and eliminate the y variable.

A fruit seller packed some apples into 15 small cartons and 20 big cartons. Each big carton contained 15 more apples than each s

ehidna [41]

Answer:

720 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the number of apples in the small pack.

QTY for Small Cartons is 15A,

QTY for Big Cartons is 20(A+15) = 20A+300

From small cartons makes 25% or 1/4 of total, means the big carton makes 75% of total, or 3/4 of total. This also means the qty in big carton is 3 times of small carton

20A+300 = 3X (15A)= 45A

300 = 25A

A=12

Altogether = 15A+(20A+300) = 720 Apples
