Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let g and b represent the numbers of candy canes the girl and boy have, respectively.
g -1 = b +1 . . . . . . girl gives to boy, they're equal
g +1 = 2(b -1) . . . . boy gives to girl; she has double
Adding 1 to the first equation gives an expression for g that can be substituted into the second equation.
g = b +2
(b +2) +1 = 2b -2
5 = b . . . . . . . . . . add 2-b, simplify
g = 5+2 = 7 . . . . . find g
The girl has 7 candy canes; the boy has 5.
Answer:
units
Step-by-step explanation:
The zero (0) is in the units place. unit = 1
Initial balance, I = $2376.10 .
Total amount of purchase made, A = $( 875.22+65.75+45.22+21.23 ) = $1007.42 .
Total amount credit, c = $875.22 .
Fine, f = $45.30 .
Another purchase, .
So, balance left is :
B = I - A - f - a + c
B = 2376.10 - 1007.42 - 45.30 - 59.4025 + 875.22
B = $2139.1975
Hence, this is the required solution.
