Answer: the total weight of 1 red block is 4 ounces and 1 green block is 2.5 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total weight of 1 red block.

Let y represent the total weight of 1 green block.

The total weight of 2 red blocks and 6 green blocks is 23 ounces. This means that

2x + 6y = 23 - - - - - - - - - 1

The total weight of 3 red blocks and 4 green blocks is 22 ounces. This means that

3x + 4y = 22- - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes

6x + 18y = 69

6x + 8y = 44

Subtracting, it becomes

10y = 25

y = 25/10 = 2.5

Substituting y = 2.5 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 6 × 2.5 = 23

2x + 15 = 23

2x = 23 - 15 = 8

x = 8/2 = 4

dexar [7]

Answer:

Number of people that can be served 7 ladles = 100 people

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that;

Initial number of ladles proposed per person = 5

Number of persons to be fed based on 5 ladles = 140 persons

Thus, amount of ladles based on that data is;

140 people x 5 ladle/1 person = 700 ladles full of soup

Now, since the cook decides to give 7 ladles full of soup to each person, the number of people that can be fed will now be;

700 ladles ÷ 7 ladles/person = 100 persons
