The answer would be C. (He counted Yolanda's candy as his own).

This is found by multiplying 500 (starting number of candy) and .64 (percentage divided by a hundred). Thjs would guve you 320, which you would then subtract from the starting number of candy (500) to get 180. 180 is Yolanda's number of candy, which gives you the answer.

Answer is choice B

The ratio of the sides (first to the second) is 11/9 since we divide 22/18 and reduce that fraction

Once we know the scale factor is 11/9, we square it to get (11/9)^2 = 121/81 which is the ratio of the first area to the second area

Plug in 10/3

9(10/3)-19= 3(10/3)+1

30-19= 10+1

11=11

That is the solution.

I hope this helps!

One number is 9 more than another. if the sum of the two numbers is 171, find the two numbers
allochka39001 [22]
Let x be the 1st number
x + 9 be the second number

Equation:
x + x+9 = 171

Solution:
2x + 9 = 171
2x = 171 - 9
2x = 162
x = 81
x + 9 = 90

81 + 90 = 171
