In order to determine the number of pens present in the container, we need to set up equations from the given in the problem statement. We do as follows:
let x the number of pencils
y the number of pens
From the statement, 9 more pencils then pens in a container,
x = y + 9
From the statement, there are 25 writing utensils in the container in all,
x + y = 25
We use substitution method to calculate for x and y,
y + 9 + y = 25
2y = 16
y = 8
x = 17
Therefore, there are 8 pens in the container and 17 pencils.
Answer:
answer B
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps
-25+4y=35
*Subtract 35*
-25+4y-35=0
*add 25 (to cancel out)*
4y-35=25
*add 35 (to cancel out)*
4y=60
*Divide by 4 to get y on its own*
y=15

Answer:
B. Age of student
D. Time taken to run 1 mile
Step-by-step explanation:
From the list of given options, only B and D satisfy the required condition.
One unique determinant of continuous data is that; they are measured and not counted.
Now, let's categorize option A to D into two
1. Counted data
2. Measured data
Options that fall into the category of measured data are said to be continuous data.
A. Concert attendance; The number of people in a concert is counted
B. The age of a student is measured (in years)
C. Number of pens in a box is counted
D. Time taken to run 1 mile is measured (in units like seconds, minutes, hours, etc...)
In summary; we have
Counted
A. Concert Attendance
C. Number of pens in a box
Measured
B. Age of a student
D. Time taken to run 1 mile
Hence, the continuous data are Age of a student and Time taken to run 1 mile
Ya that's correct u got the right answer
