Answer: a
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of Blue casset be b and that of green be g.
Thus the total number of cassets will be:
b+g=16
hence
g=16-b.......i
The total amount was:
45b+55g=830..ii
plugging i in ii we get:
45b+55(16-b)=830
45b+880-55b=830
simplifying
45b-55b=830-880
-10b=-50
thus
b=5
hence
g=16-5=11
number of blue cassets was 5 and that of green was 11
Answer: 16 men
32 women
38 children
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of men in the group.
Let y represent the number if women in the group.
Let z represent the number of children in the group.
A group of 86 people consist of men women and children. This means that
x + y + z = 86 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
There are twice as many women than there are men. It means that
x = y/2
There are 6 more children than there are women. This means that
z = y + 6
Substituting x = y/2 and z = y + 6 into equation 1, it becomes
y/2 + y + y + 6 = 86
multiplying through by 2, it becomes
y + 2y + 2y + 12 = 172
5y = 172 - 12 = 160
y = 160/5 = 32
x = y/2 = 32/2
x = 16
z = y + 6 = 32 + 6
z = 38
