Answer:
B (2 violet)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the colors be represented by their first letter. Then the balances give rise to two equation:
o +y +b +v = r +g +b
o +y +v = g +v
Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...
(o +y +b +v) -(o +y +v) = (r +g +b) -(g +v)
b = r +b -v
Adding v-b to both sides, we have ...
b +(v -b) = r +b -v +(v -b)
v = r
Multiplying this result by 2, we can match the final balance:
2r = 2v . . . . . . . choice B
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that x and y vary directly then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition x = 25 when y = 100 , then
100 = 25k ( divide both sides by 25 )
4 = k
y = 4x ← equation of variation
When y = 24 , then
24 = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )
6 = x
Answer:
18 men attended the baseball game, and 30 women attended the baseball game.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of men in attendance be x and the number of women in attendance be x+12.
No. of men + <em>No. of women</em> = <u>48 </u>
x +<em> x + 12</em> = <u>48</u>
2x + 12 = 48
2x = 48 - 12
= 36
x = 36 ÷ 2
x = 18
x+12: 18 + 12 = 30
