Yes they are similar look at the paper
L = Lea's eggs
<span>C = Chris's eggs </span>
<span>Chris had twice as many eggs as Lea </span>
<span>C = 2L </span>
<span>Chris dropped 6 of his eggs and Lea dropped 2 of hers, and then they had the same number. </span>
<span>C - 6 = L - 2 </span>
<span>two equations, two unknowns, can be solved </span>
<span>sub C = 2L </span>
<span>into </span>
<span>C - 6 = L - 2 </span>
<span>2L - 6 = L - 2 </span>
<span>L = 4 </span>
<span>so C = 8 </span>
<span>verify </span>
<span>C = 2L; twice 4 is 8, OK </span>
<span>C - 6 = L - 2 </span>
<span>8 - 6 is 2 and 4 - 2 is 2, OK </span>
<span>So Lea started with 4 eggs, Chris with 8
Hope this helps

Answer:
A. 47, 62, 72.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A = first game
Let B = second game
Let C = third game
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Total score = 180 points
If A = 47 points;
To the nearest ten, A = 50
If B = 62 points;
To the nearest ten, B = 60
If C = 72 points;
To the nearest ten, C = 70
Total points = A + B + C
Substituting into the equation, we have
Total points = 50 + 60 + 70
Total points = 180 points.
<em>Therefore, 47, 62 and 72 when rounded to the nearest 10, most likely represents the actual scores (180) of the three games.</em>
43.5 - 32 = 11.5
11.5 pounds is the increase in dogs weight.
11.5 ÷ 43.5 = 0.264
0.264 rounded to the nearest whole percent = 26%
The increase in weight from 2010 to 2011 is 26%
First, find 10% of 45
45 x 10/100 = 4.5
subtract that from the original price to find the discount:
45 - 4.5 = 40.5
find 15% of 40.5:
40.5 x .15 = 6.075
subtract the discount:
40.5 - 6.075 = 34.425
$34.425 is the discounted price
