The correct answer is B)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
18 Skittles
6 M&Ms
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation:
Variable x = number of skittles
Variable y = number of M&Ms
1.50x + 2y = 39
x + y = 24
In the second equation, isolate a variable:
x = 24 - y
Substitute the value of x for 24 - y in the first equation:
1.50(24 - y) + 2y = 39
Use distributive property
36 - 1.5y + 2y = 39
Combine like terms
36 + 0.5y = 39
Isolate variable y:
0.5y = 3
y = 6
Substitute the value of y for 6 in the second equation:
x + 6 = 24
Isolate variable x:
x = 18
Plug these values into any equation of your choice to see if these values are correct (I'll do both equations just to prove it):
1.50(18) + 2(6) = 39
27 + 12 = 39
39 = 39
Correct
x + y = 24
18 + 6 = 24
24 = 24
Correct
If I remember My geometry correctly
you add GH AND EF then divide 2
A = 1/2(17 + 27) (4)
A = 1/2(44)(4)
A = 88
answer
88
The average speed would be 600 km/hr.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the original speed be 'x'
Let the decreased speed be 'x-200'
Distance = 600 km
Time increased by 30 minutes
According to question, it becomes,
So, The average speed would be 600 km/hr.
