Let x = # of computer games nick has
then
Anish has 1/2x games
and
Scot has 1/2*1/3 = 1/6x games
thus
1/6x + 1/2x + x = 140
1/6x + 3/6x + x = 140
10/6x = 140
10x =140* 6
x = 84 > Nick
1/2x = 42 > Anish
1/6x = 14 > Scot
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Changing the coefficient of x to 6 changes the meaning of the expression as 5 is added to 6 times x
Solution:
Given that number 2 in the expression 5 + 2x is called the coefficient of x
We are asked to find what happens when changing the coefficient to 6 changes the meaning of the expression
In the expression,
5 + 2x
This means 5 is added to 2 times x or 5 is added to twice of x
Number 2 is called the coefficient of x
When we change this coefficient to 6, the expression becomes,
5 + 6x
So now the meaning of expression becomes,
5 is added to 6 times x
So changing the coefficient of x changes the meaning of the expression
Answer:
30 strawberry sundaes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know there is a total of 70 sundaes.
3 sundaes will be strawberry.
4 sundaes will be choclate.
When you add 3 and 4 together, you get 7. This is your total ratio.
So 3/7 of the sundaes are strawberry.
And 4/7 of sundaes are choclate.
We know there is a total of 70 sundaes.
The total ratio we figured out is 7.
If the total sundaes is 70, and the total ration is 7. Then the total sundaes is 10 times bigger than the ratio.
This means we need to multiply the 3 strawberry sundaes and 4 choclate sundaes by 10.
3*10=30
4*10=40
So there are 30 strawberry sundaes and 40 choclate sundaes.
We need to find the strawberry sundae amount, so the answer is 30.
Hope this helps!
